Well, the server where I host my sites was attacked over the past few days, and it was quite a nasty attack. All my sites got absolutely flooded with comment spam (this site alone was receiving around 1000 spam comments a day), and a few spam comments even managed to make it through the filter.

Things seemed to have calmed down somewhat now, and I’m really hoping they’re going to stay that way. It was very frustrating not having access to any sites — and most of the time I wasn’t even able to get in to delete comment spam.

So if you noticed some odd behaviour here over the past few days, it was most likely because of the attack on the server. If you notice anything else going wrong (I’ve taken some measures to hopefully prevent this from happening again), just drop me a line and let me know. Thanks for sticking it out with me through this attack.
