InfectedByBugs Hacked, Tips from Shannon Lilly

By Ahson Rafiq in Make Money Online on 23rd July 2008

Shannon Lilly talks about Infectedbybugs’ downfall and it being hacked with useful tips for you guys.

That’s right, IBB is still down unfortunately but not to worry things always have a way of working out for the good. I was attacked about a week and a half ago and all my sites including some business partners sites were taken from my account L

I am still waiting for Go Daddy to get them back but they have assured me they are working on the issue and it will be resolved ASAP.

With that said I am sure you can understand how frustrating something like this can be. I want to lay out a few things you can do to make sure you’re secure!

  1. Make sure you use a different password for every site you’re a member of that includes Go Daddy and any other registrar out there.
  2. Secondly make sure your buy privacy policy on all your important domains. The reason this is necessary is simple it’s nearly impossible for someone to hack and do without tons of ground work.
  3. Install a good security / antivirus program. I am now using EsetNOD32 and it’s rated the best around!!
  4. If you can reformat your pc leaving nothing left on it accepts your files which you have backed up. This way no hidden key loggers can be found and or create future leaks.

Well that’s all I got, I believe with those 4 simple steps you will all be that much safer to a secure pc and I hope all of you the best! I would not wish this to happen to anyone, it’s simply to expensive of a mistake to make!

While I wait for IBB to come back to me I am blogging at Shannon Lilly check it out!
