The damage done was for the most part cosmetic.

Although the cgi and html was stored on that server, the actual SQL database is stored somewhere else.

As far as OS level security exploits, we've been keeping up with all of the updates to ensure that the servers are secure in that level.

The hack job appears to have been done via a CGI exploit, although more research shall be done to confirm that.

We should have hopefully have everything online by tonight, and I will be giving some "bonus" days as compensation for the damages.

Candid Clicks is operational now and your clicks will be counted if you send traffic now. All of your previous click thru data is safe and payments for last month will go out later today. We just need to do some housekeeping on the backend side to make sure everything is secure.
