It seems someone--does not like me on the net as he/she hacked one of my directory and stole the database. Check -- http://www.dbestdir.com It lead to a hosting page. If you check the hosting site --it does not look a professional hosting site I was having downtime with my other directories too--but fortunately he/she could not do any harm to them. I am trying to take help from my host --let me see what can be done. Please be careful everybody-it might happen to you too- and also advise me.
Why dont you ask your host to load the backup? I am pretty sure they have one. I do not see a hosting site when I go to http://www.dbestdir.com/ I just see a parent directory with no index page.
Agreed contact the host he should have the backups on the server.. Regardless that sucks and if ya need any help just PM me... thx malcolm
Sorry to hear this ! It is just stupid what some people can do! I hope you will be able to sort it out with your host!
Yes --I have contacted my host --and he said it happened some hrs back. The hacker --stole my database too. I requested my host to provide me the last accessed IP and waiting. @ ! Ask ! -- my host told me.
That's awful, and I am sorry to hear this. Do you have any theories on how it was done? Can you share the hosting company's name? Best of luck in getting it back up. Morty
Hate to see this happen to anyone. I hope you are able to resolve this and get your directory back up and running soon.
Yes you can export the database to a zipped file and download and some times hosting provider may allow you to back up!
Contact your hosting company asap.. At times they have scheduled backups. Atleast I believe that's what OF does
hope u can recover your database soon. I have a featured link there kidding. I think someone intentionly did that in order to hurt you. afterall, database would be no use for him.
first the hack by changing PP address, now this..... i hope this is not a general trend. But i'm sorry anyway jhnrang, was away when you msged me abt this Good luck and let me know if you need any help of any kind. Time to backup all my stuff again......
It seems -- the hackers are on the prawl. I am having constant touch with my host. First thing I did -- I changed the name-servers back. Second thing I am doing -- I am recovering all the data from Google Cache. It will kill all my time- but I take it a challenge. I'll fully restore my directory --no matter how hard and how long it takes. Those who have listing there -- PLS DO NOT WORRY.
