Earlier this morning my site got hacked by someone who put up a new home page demanding a stop to the war in Israel.
Great…
So some quick looking around quickly showed that, by default, my hosting company had enabled WebDAV, a long with a dozen other things. WTF.
So who is worse, me for not checking this stuff, or my hosting provider for turning this crap on by default.
I think they are worse. Way worse.

Ever been logged into a machine via RDP and you need to do a reboot but guess what, “restart” isn’t one of your options. You only have Disconnect and Log Off. Ooops. Now what?
No problem, just run this from the command line:
shutdown -r
And thats it. The system will reboot in 30 seconds.
