Yeah, but to be fair games programming can be fairly hard - there are a lot of potentially non-trivial problems, and you need to solve them all with very hardline timing guarantees otherwise you blow your framerate targets.

Problem is... script is slow at anally controlling data, whereas a compiled language does it with ease.


Script is great for internal automation, essential even, but externally - nope nope nope.
Honestly, Python/Ruby/etc. are 'fast enough' for most web-level purposes, and at least with Python you've got options if you need to scale up and can't afford more hardware - Stackless, PyPy, Cython, etc. They're also extremely good for rapid prototyping of new ideas, and you generally have the option of rewrite performance-critical code regions as C/++ modules later.

24k your server was compromised.  I'm sure your customers would love to know what steps you have taken to protect them.  You are just deflecting the real issue at hand.  Your server is compromised and if you just deleted that file, like you stated, your still compromised.  Bottom line.

If you don't know what your doing, it may be time to hire someone to assist you in securing your servers.  Or cancel and refund all customers still with you because your doing them a horrible dis-service.

Eh? I don't see his servers being compromised mentioned anywhere.


Correct me if I am wrong though.

LOL a bunch of grammar Nazi's.  Go outside and take a break your obviously way too stressed behind your computer if your worried about fucking grammar on a forum with kid hosts.  

How is his server not compromised LOL if you can't see it is, you need to just shutdown your hosting company.  This is too funny.

Everyone who doesn't think his service is compromised, please go back to PAGE 1 of this thread and re-read that.  ALL of it.  Tell me again, his server isn't compromised.

Any more grammar mistakes please forward to /dev/null.  I don't really give a fuck.

Thanks

Then I would suggest you contact your IT dept. and ask them what it means when someone has successfully uploaded hack scripts to your server.  Then ask him to check into the one on 24k's server and find out what it does.  It's meant for exploiting specific items in the setup most of us run.  

Now a couple things could very well come from this.  Maybe it was only a rouge upload script that was vulnerable and they just got a file uploaded that did nothing.  Or maybe it did exactly what it was designed to do and he is compromised.  His data at the very least has been copied.  But no one knows because 24k isn't saying anything at all about it.

Eh? I don't see 24k's serversa getting hacked. Just their main site getting compromised. Get off your horsie.

The script that they uploaded was able to get usernames and nothing else.  It tried to use things that had been protected against.  We went through and updated all configurations on the server and made sure everything was good to go.  No data was compromised, no accounts other than our main website was impacted.

Again I am not deflecting anything.  There was an issue it  happened, we handled it.  It's over.  I am working 2 jobs, running a company, and just haven't had time to be here.  Sorry If that looks like deflection.  We are doing what we have to do to reorganize the company to keep it strong.  Need to make sure the company stays funding itself.

This will go a long ways to helping your customers feel confident with your services.  Thank you for the clarification.

They actually had to bring their senor tech since I tolf them I couldn't load the page they were reffering to. When I (by accident) mentioned that I do work with computers for a living, they hung up on me.

I really wanted that software. :(
