    This might be a stupid question but how is one able to hack a site?

    Weak passwords?
    Security on servers?
    Hosting own servers and not keeping security up to date?

    Is it a good idea to host your site on your own servers or with a third party hosting company?

    Thanks

    There is lots of these hacker groups around. I don't understand what they get out of hacking a website.

    Seems ok at my end.

    Go here - this free anti virus software is constantly out performing paid antivirus software in computer magazine reviews!

    Just for those folks who might be curious, NO URLs have gone MIA. Kind of hard for that to happen when we do automatic, daily updates.

    And the URL is question was never moved or removed from the directory, it was simply in a different category from the one where he was looking.
