Upgraded to PHP 4.1.2

by Rick Overman · in Site Feedback · 03/05/2002 (8:30 pm) · 1 replies

Upgraded to PHP 4.1.2 tonight because SO MANY script kiddies were trying to exploit the latest PHP security hole and break into our server. There is nothing important on our server - just apache and some web pages. So kiddies, please give us a break, we are the honest little guys fighting the big fight against the mega game corporations taking your money and making buggy, unimaginative games.

There's no way of dealing with stupid script kiddies Jeff. Reasoning doesn't work. If it did, there wouldn't be that many script kiddies. I'm guessing half of them don't even realize that this website if games related (despite the name). The other half probably just want the engine for free.

They are just idiots. The only way to deal with them is to keep your software secure and patched.
