Hi Inspector G,

Like you I got hacked. I took my forums offline, and went to work by securing everything with htaccess, renaming files, encoding/encrypting files, everything. A few days later and BAM! Hacked again. Then my laptop broke and my site was offline for 2 months. I got it back up and within a week it was hacked again. During the time I was hacked, I found out who the people were that hacked me and started talking to them.

They explained how they managed to get into my forum and hack me. Some of it was through SQL injection but most of the time it was not. If you use shared hosting, which most of use do, then if they can gain access to the server you are on through someone else's website that is hosted on your server, they can then hack you by using SHELL or something. I am no good at hacking or preventing it so I can't say how exactly they do it, but I got around it.

I went to LeetHost and they are dedicated to stopping the hacking scandal. The guy who runs the hosting site is very friendly and very helpful. I contacted him (I now have him on skype, talk to him daily and help him with his own vB forum) as the 3 hosting packages I found were not suitable for me and he made me a custom package at a price I decided that we could both agree on.

He is the best hosting provider I have dealt with to date and I have had no problems with him. As far as I know, it is just one guy who is running the site. If you want your site to be online all the time and to not be hacked then I defo suggest you sign up for this hosting. I can tell you that you will not be disappointed with the service.
