I'm sure some of you may be aware of the situation But as of yesterday (May 1, 2010) at around 2 AM, there was a major hack attempt on GoDaddy. At about 10 AM, GoDaddy Tweeted about this matter (See Tweet: http://twitter.com/GoDaddy/status/13199601776). The issue has not affected all of their hosting accounts and is still being investigated. The issue is not due to a flaw in WordPress as GoDaddy claims, a friend has a site that only has her own hand written PHP code and nothing more. Despite taking my friend is super obsessive about security and knows for a fact her FTP account was not compromised, she found all the PHP files on her server to be infected, even those not publicly available.
When you view the source of any of the PHP pages through the browser, you see the following line inserted just before the </body> tag:
I don't really understand what this code exactly does. Can any PHP code experts decipher it?
GoDaddy claimed they will investigate the issue but when my friend called, she found the tech support staff were completely oblivious to the matter.
So, if you are one of the unlucky ones whose server was a part of the attack, please check the bottom of your source code to make sure the <script> tag isn't there. Otherwise contact GoDaddy and complain.
Yeah it's my only home/business computer.
The Surface Pen magnetic Storage is on the left side, but it doesn't charge the Pen.
I do the charging once every 6+ months by interchanging between 2 rechargeable AAAA batteries and charging the other via a USB A battery charger.
I have NO problem restricting minors having access to apps. Personally, I'd like to see the restriction extend to smartphones too, but that should be the parents anyway.
But on the restrictions ? GOOD LUCK enforcing that. Between VPN's, side loading and what not, I'm sure kids will find a way around it.
Wonder if the person that came up with the name "Cuktech" is the same person that came up for the computer name over 40 years ago WANG. When giving stock market reports, sometimes Wang was up, but sometimes Wang was down.
Wasn't it MS that got sued under violation of the Sherman antitrust act in 2001 for the way they did things on Windows with IE?
Either they don't care or didn't learn the lesson. Well, considering the outcome was 1 billion dollars, which I guess was a drop in the bucket for MS.
That's fair. Is this your only computer?
Certainly with the USB-A it can be handy when out and about, though for me the only thing would be some old thumb drives. The headphone jack is a major blow (I don't own any wireless earbuds), as is the MicroSD storage expansion which I presume is hidden behind the cover like the Pro 5 is. I don't see the surface pen storage on the 7+, is it like the one in the 12" 12th gen that charges the pen too?
