PHP-Nuke Security - Been hacked? or have a question about securing your site, here's the place.
Turks hacked me
Has anyone else had the dreaded Turk's hack you?
I run 2 sites, both phpnuke based and both have been hacked to bits. I've managed to restore one okay thanks to a backup, but the other will need to start over as they deleted the content.
Is it going to be worth my while paying out for the latest version? Does it have extra security features?
Any help appreciated.
No! the latest versions (7.7 +) make it even easier for hackers to hack your site.The best you can do is install Sentinel: http://www.nukescripts.net/modules.php?name=Downloads&op=getit&lid=1041
Thanks. I've downloaded it, but please help. What do I do with it? Where does it need to go?
I'm not a clever coder, so please would you be kind enough to explain in detail?
Thanks again.
Pete
How bout looking at the instructions that came with it??
Which txt file?
you obviously know these files inside out. I don't, sorry. If you are running a support forum, then please provide support. Is that so hard to ask?
The one called "readme.txt" or "install.txt" would be a good start....

We DO provide support - but if you are unable to work out which file you may need to read to begin installing something then that is not a support problem is it?

You come here asking for a little simple advice, you also then ask if you should buy a newer version from the prick that developes it but wont support it, then you tell us what we should be doing on a free to use site that I pay for out of the kindness of my heart.
You're obviously pissed about your site being attacked but does that give you the right to have a dig at us??
Anyway, readme.txt
