Apparently I was HACKED!

HACKED?!?

SERIOUSLY?!?!

COME ON PEOPLE! What are we 10, here?

I know you are all smart, and web geniuses and all but why do you have to mess with people who are just minding there own business. I mean, PLEASE! I go to the park with the toddler only to return home and find THIS MESSAGE on all of my web sites. COME ON DUDE! I barely have time to keep up and now I have to deal with your immature ass. If you are that good and that bored then go out and get a job and leave me alone. Don’t you have anything better to do?

Some people.

GEESH!

Holy cats Roni! I tried to go to your food blog and I got blocked then that virus thingy popped up. Thankfully I have AVG virus detector and it put the virus in a vault. What a mess for you! I can't wait until your food blog is back. I need to cook this weekend. =)

Well, I guess it's a compliment in a weird way. My blog hasn't been hijacked. :-)

Well, that sucks!!! I had a feeling something was up. I was at my Mom's and I was trying to get her your whole wheat pizza crust recipe. I wasn't able to get on this site or GLB. I thought maybe it was her computer. I got home and tried again and still couldn't get on to either. That's when I figured something was wrong. I'm glad you're up and running again!

So sorry this happened to you, Roni! I guess this is where computer genius boyfriends/husbands/you come in!

Also, I think it's interesting some of the comments refer to your hacker as a 'he.' Is being a hacker a gender stereotype? It could also be a 'she' ..... who knows.

Anyway, hope everything works out!

Apparently the whole server was hit not just my sites. That makes me feel a little better for some reason.

And Allison, in my family I'm the computer genius, the husband, not so much. LOL

OUCH! He just shot me a death look! ;~P

"lol!!" Roni. I haven't laughed that hard in MONTHS! All I have to say is: Girl Power! in regards to being the computer genius in the family!

Certainly glad to hear it wasn't a personal attack. Have a great weekend.

I knew something was askew when I tried to get to the site yesterday. Geez! Why can't people get a real hobby??

The picture "Mr. X" left is supposed to be scary I think, but it just makes me laugh :) Sorry you had to work on the site to get it back after such a silly prank!

I first tried to get on my own blog, and when that didn't work, I tried yours ... the same stupid screen popped up. Some people need to get a life! :D

Glade you're back I was wondering what to make for dinner and logged on to check things out, and AVG popped up with the virus thing. I have been afraid to log back on since I wasn't sure how long it takes to fix things on your end. But I'm glad all is good again.

OMG! I completely missed this but glad that you got things back up and running. I don't understand why people thing it's cool to do shit like this.
I hope the hosting company was able to catch the person and do something about it.

oh gosh -
In my day job I'm the Interactive Director for a PR firm and for 6 months have had old an crappy servers from my predecessor, and have been battling hackers for all this time - I feel your pain! The most memorable was someone hacking a site for a major bank with a picture that looks like Phantom of the Opera meets Hostel (the movie).

Sorry for the trouble - I know your pain!

I'm glad you're back up and running. And I'm glad it wasn't anything personal, that it was the whole server that was effected. Would be scary if it was targeted just at you! Whew!

Glad to see that mess is fixed! You know my husband is the "computer geek" in the family and when he was in school they (school admin) fired one of his teachers for hacking into the school server and planting bugs...crazy!
