Still, the people that do this sorta thing; they can't seriously expect people to buy drugs from some dodgy ad!! The sort of people these things are aimed at are morons - I mean, come on, they're not exactly the kind of users that Blender attracts!! As for the calendar, well I never used it anyway! ;) ~epat. :) Ah well… if you host a popular site, you gotta expect to get it hacked once in a while!

Alot of college servers have been hacked in the same way :( Check this by Googling for "site:.edu xanax". If you see your college/school in the hits, let the IT dept know.

I would get attempted hacks about every 5 minutes. Mostly I ignored things (I did keep site security fairly tight), and block IP addresses where the spam would originate from (although I usually suspected they were from a hijacked machine or a war-driven open wifi connection or something 'encrypted' with the very open and crackable wep protocol). Eventually with enough attempts and SQL injection, they managed to break into the site. I locked the site down for a few weeks, but it was a pain to have a very locked site (very read only, little viewer feedback). I would have to replace a lot of the software and so decided to take it down (I had time for maintenance, but not a site rebuild). Good work on rebuilding though. Even the Blender homepage depends on Blender Nation for news. I had a site for about 2 years (about 80,000 hits altogether and for a while typing in the site name would get you hit 1 from Google).
