Hax0r attempt?

so… the reason why i haven’t updated lately, aside of laziness, is because my blog has been hacked… so you guys (yes, all three of you readers) may have noticed some weird command prompt thing when you visited my blog within the past three days. Nico emailed me about it before, but i haven’t had time to fix it (since it’s the holidays and all). besides, at the time i just thought my server broke or something… since i looked through my files and they all seem to be okay. it wasn’t until today when Hau facebook messaged me saying that it’s actually a HACK attempt that i tried to fix it.

i found this useful article on how to get rid of the hack, and i’m changing all my passwords just in case. i don’t think anything were compromised… but even if it was, the passwords i used on this domain is thankfully my generic password, which does not work on my “important” stuff.

as you can see, everything is now fixed. i think i’ve removed everything mentioned on the article. i’ll also upgrade my wordpress version since obviously the one i am using right now (2.6) isn’t very safe!

anyway, what have i been up to lately? i have tons of pics to put up. here’s a quick preview:

• Went to Sarah Brightman concert with N on Dec 20th. LOTS OF PICS to come! she was awesome :)
• Went to a couple holiday parties, also with N and my family (honestly, from now on whenever i do stuff you can safely assume it’s with N and/or my family. i’ve been a hermit. i haven’t even seen Kat since my NYC trip, which was like.. what, two weeks ago?!)
• Was sick this week. yes, even on christmas
• splurged on karmaloop.com sale! was pissed when i found out today they raised the discount to 60% off. i bought stuff when it was 50% off >:( anyway, i have a repcode if anyone wants to shop there! it’s ME6639
• Went to Christmas eve mass with family, then off to spend x-mas with N’s family. they got me gifts! :) so thoughtful! saw a couple of movies: Slumdog Millionaire, Curious Case of Benjamin Button, 7 pounds and Religuous (a documentary by Bill Masher). all were a worth while watch.

anyway, MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone!! i hope yours were as great as mine :)
