Looks like We Are Over The Target

I got an email and a phone call from CederQ telling me that the site is under attack by Malware and he can’t get into the dashboard. So this is basically a test post. Today is my youngest daughter;s Birthday and I am up early so we can go to downtown Vancouver for a brunch and from there I am going to work. If Bluehost hasn’t got it fixed on their own by the time I get home then there will be a lengthy phone call in order.

Just FYI.

    • Kevin and I spent some time testing his PC and SSH behavior, the problem seems to be with his PC. Maybe a zero-day infection, maybe misbehaved software. I gave him some pointers.

  1. Test comment. I’ve had a lot of comments vanish when I hit “publish”; others post just fine.

  2. Yeah, started seeing it today. I use Malwarebytes and it was flagging the blog saying the reply sequence was too long to verify. The flag pop up also lists the IP address. I was able to add that to my Malwarebytes exclusion list and now it works OK.

  3. Stunned you are under attack, given you are actually one of the few free speech sites around. Thats sarcasm on the former, truth on the latter.

  4. Hey Phil, I forgot to mention while I was poking CederQ in the ribs a little, I think it’s great you got to celebrate your daughter’s birthday with her. Give her a hug for me.

  5. It seems like there’s a lot going on with the site and the malware issue. Happy Birthday to your youngest daughter—33 is a great age. I hope the brunch in downtown Vancouver was enjoyable. It’s interesting how technical issues can disrupt plans, but at least you’re staying on top of it. Did Bluehost manage to fix the problem by the time you got home? WordAiApi
