Chris Perkins Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Recently I noticed that I wasn't logged in automatically, and when I tried to log in manually it didn't work. So I did the 'forgotten' password thing but didn't get an email.I had to open the database in MySQL and change the encrypted password there. My email address had been changed to a dodgy hotmail one....But I'm back now, and have hopefully made things more secure!Has anything offensive been added lately that I need to look at? Quote
Geordie582 Posted October 4, 2005 Posted October 4, 2005 Just a homosexual website! But it has been eliminated from the forum now, thank goodness! Quote
Chris Perkins Posted October 4, 2005 Author Posted October 4, 2005 Sylvester must have removed it. At least I hope it was him. Was that you Syl?I think in view of these recent events I'll also be giving full access to Sylvester, to ensure that if I get knocked out he can re-instate me, or vice versa. Quote
Sylvester Posted October 5, 2005 Posted October 5, 2005 Yes there has been alot of links to websites of that nature posted lately, i've removed all of them as soon as i saw them. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted October 5, 2005 Author Posted October 5, 2005 Thanks Syl.I don't know how they managed to change my password, but perhaps it was done so that they could post such links unhindered.I'm pleased you were around to take them down. Quote
