So I figured the only thing I frequent this week was a WP install I made long ago which I tried to experiment again these days...</p> <p>The new release is WP 2.0.2, I didnt want to upgrade from 1.5.2, since im a little lazy and hectic... I looked for traces and I had an increased hit just the day before it all happened... specifically on that page, so I figure its an attack or theres some vulnerability. Also I looked into what my hosting said and maybe their whole system was being hacked, so I asked them to reinstall, and their previous backup so that all user databases will be restored... Then upgrade to a new mysql and php... </p> <p>Everything is dandy now...</p> Wed, 22 Mar 2006 17:56:00 +0000 demonhale comment 1195806 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-database-development/mysql-bugging#comment-1195801 <p>Backing up often is best practice for anything computerwise.</p> <p>Let us know if you fid out what happened. Was this on a hosted server?</p> <p>-Greg</p> Wed, 22 Mar 2006 17:37:46 +0000 Greg K comment 1195801 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/web-database-development/mysql-bugging#comment-1195765 <p>In on your PC, If you have XP you can back date it, upload or send info to yourself then go back to present (or stay)</p> <p>If on your host they should have a backup of it, even if old one</p> <p>but yeah backups are good idea, just like saving your work as you go.</p> Wed, 22 Mar 2006 10:05:49 +0000 Busy comment 1195765 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net
