And your still running NT ?

Its really too bad your stuck in that deal because if you guys had any clue,
you would immediately dump this security hole and replace it with something
that works.

RE: It Takes Time
Also, and I want to make clear I'm speaking just for myself and not for Ryan when I say, if you think having all my hard work screwed with by some jerk face only to turn around and be accused of taking part in some conspiracy that I'm enjoying, then just go the FUCK away and never come back to the site again, you goddamn waste of skin.
Hey, now that I've got that out I feel a lot better.

RE: PalmInfoCenter can't market itself. They need hackers.
It's obvious by the comments posted about switching the server to a new OS, that they've never managed a site of this size and complexity.
The guys here at PalmInfoCenter are doing a bang up job given that this is a "HOBBY" site. But, let's have the loudmouths put their money where their mouth is. If you want PalmInfoCenter to run on Linux, then they'll need about $1000 dollars for ChiliSoft (http://www.chilisoft.com), since they're using Active Server Pages.
So who wants to be first?

It's also interesting that your site is one of few mentioned in the article on CNet.com. I can only assume it was you that e-mailed CNet for the article.
Also, don't tell me I don't know how to switch from NT to Unix. I have made the change several times, with sites much larger than PalmInfoCenter. If you know what you are doing, it can be done in a few days.
You were hacked again yesterday, and the hacker is warning that episode 5 is coming soon. If switching your OS is too much, at least take the hackers advice and (in his words) "If you would like to know how to patch the vulnerability then mail me...".
windows 2000 is the way to go.
anyway, you put a space before your punctuation? did you skip grammar class or are you stubborn?
You just want promotion, so you let the hacker in.
Why are you deleting my posts PalmInfoCenter? Other posts are negative towards your site, and my post was the only one to get deleted. Interesting!
RE: You just want promotion, so you let the hacker in.
Myself nor Ed has deleted any posts, we do not censor the forums unless there is something wholy inappropriate.
There is no patch to stop this hacker, yet.
Trust me, I am not a big fan of Redmond and NT, I am looking into other options.

RE: You just want promotion, so you let the hacker in.
I think everyone would agree: A Linux/*nix box that a NT sysadmin was trying to run would be just a open to an attack that a NT box would be. You just can't set it up and say "now we're safe, we run Unix" cause that's bullshit. I run a Linux box and know you still have to look over each and every door and make sure it's locked or monitored. So jumping to Unix after being scared by a kiddy who found a hole isn't the brightest idea.
Amazingly stupid people
Go use your minds before you say something so stupid.
RE: Amazingly stupid people
Because it is free promotion. NO, when visitors come from news sites they will NOT find the site hacked. Because PalmInfoCenter fixed the hack before alerting News.com (for the free media atention). You use your head!
Assholes!
PalmInfocenter is one of the few AvantGo posts I read every day and I think the guys do a fantastic job. Just because they get hacked, doesn't mean it's open season. Wind your necks in and get back to running your own lives (if you have one, that is).
