Are your referral links still working??..or is everyone who uses them just wasting their traffic?

Rose 05-19-2002 08:31 PM

I dont think anything is working on that site. There is nothing.

We're working on it.

It appears that we have been hacked.

[Labret] 05-19-2002 09:34 PM

Sorry to hear that. Good luck in finding and castrating the Russian douchebag responsible.

Rose 05-19-2002 09:35 PM

Good Luck Michael... :)

Hmm candid, ya shall blame Sasush, our poor cheater friend for this dillema.

candidpublishinginc 05-19-2002 10:09 PM

Sasush isn't bright enough for a job like this.

It appears that it was an exploit based on the cgi script level.

We have a hard copy of all of our active webmasters so those will be restored.

Also payments for last month will go out on time.

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.

candidpublishinginc 05-21-2002 03:54 PM

All paypal and check payments for last period went out today.

Except for a some broken images in the "resources" area, Candid Clicks is fully operational now.

As for compensation, June 1st through 5th we'll be paying 4 CENTS a click thru flat to EVERYONE. Any webmaster that currently earns 4 cents a click thru on a consistent level shall be paid 5 cents a click thru.
