I’ve been suspicious of my ice rink’s website ever since Sophos started popping up an infected file warning on my computer every time I visited it. But, I never had proof it was coming from this certain website, as Sophos could only tell me that the virus was latched onto one of my cache files, not where it originated from. I quit trying to visit the website, out of fear that my passwords would be stolen or something, because I’m super paranoid like that. But really, I mean HELLOOOO, MY BLOG WAS JUST HACKED!

I warned a few of my skater friends, who basically looked at me like I was crazy and said the site worked just fine for them. WELL, HA! Guess what was flagged yesterday by Google?

The site’s completely fucked up. My dad pulled a bunch of the Google diagnostics and found the malware coming in from China, Latvia, and Florida. Meaning, the website is going to have to be torn down and rebuilt, because there’s pretty much no way to save it without accidentally leaving a hole in the current system.

I’m hopinghopinghoping the rink management lets me redesign the site. I’ve been wanting to do it way before the malware attack, due to the fact that the old site looked like shit and extremely unprofessional, but I never got around to asking. The owner’s son said today that he’d talk to his mom, so everyone cross your fingers for me!!
