We experienced downtime yesterday, our host locked us do to a security flaw in one of the Asgard PHP files.		2009-06-086:38 AM

Why not host GUI Blog websites somewhere else so if someone's site gets compromised, the whole site doesn't get compromised. ;)		2009-06-0810:19 AM

I only have one good hosting account. I mean Xetaspace is ok, but I find is unreliable personaly.		2009-06-0811:25 AM
ToddRe:Welcome Back
But I think in 1&1, you can use theguiblog.com subdomains and refer them to another host. Xeta Space isn't really doing much since I closed free hosting and just keep it for personal clients and people who can use it. You can think of it like running an apartment complex out of your house. It's not as great but if you have an apartment complex with individual apartment spaces, it's a little more protected. I mean it's up to you but all someone has to do is gain access to one of those sites and they can bring everything down on your account. I learned that a long time ago. Web host accounts have individual permissions so someone can't see another user's files, cos it's Linux. ;)		2009-06-0811:38 AM

We were on Xetaspace for a while, I got tired of it always being down. I'm not going back.		2009-06-0812:00 PM

My friend's host is: http://www.web-hosting-service.org/ His servers run cPanel. The alternative to this could be to just simply disable PHP on GUI Blog websites.		2009-06-0812:46 PM

[quote]disable PHP on GUI Blog websites.[/quote] Most have it disabled, Trolly got advanced features got his web services. I will send you the PHP file later today Todd (like 4pm) so you can look it over and help trolly secure it up. [quote]weird, was the php file being exploited then?[/quote] Yeah it was used to send spam and unload spam files.		2009-06-081:33 PM
ToddRe:Welcome Back
