Updated Site :)
NewsHello all
I have done the major upgrade of the CMS software today. There will be a few changes as the week goes on, and most of the add-ons should be back soon. First on the list is getting the Calendar back up and running. Take a poke around... if you notice something not working properly, please drop me a line.

SITE HACKED
SecurityHello again all.... Just going to make this short and sweet as I really need the time to chat with a few people about this.

Here is the score.... the site was hacked through the members poll script. All files that have been compromised have been removed, and the master passwords have been changed. I would suggest that you change your password(s) as well. I have a newer version of the CMS software that runs the site running on another part of the server as we speak, but I will need time to move everything over.

I will also be speaking to a few webmasters that use other CMS scripts to see what they are using and what security issues they are having as well.

Winter Cache Game
EventsWhat is the Winter Cache Game?

The Winter Cache Game is a fun competition to get you out of the house during the chilly days of winter. Designed for all Saskatchewan cachers, the objective is to complete any 10 of the 20 game requirements for finding or placing caches during the next 2 months. Prizes will be awarded to the 2 top scores, the low score, and the score closest to the average.

Rules:
The short version: 10 requirements in 2 months; report each requirement within 7 days of fulfilling in the Claims thread at www.saskcachers.com forums; go for high, low or medium points.

SITE HACKED
SecurityAprox. 2 nights ago, our website was attacked along with a ton of others.
There was a hack that was run on the page through the polling system. It was a fairly similar attack we had 2 years ago with another add-on to this site. Basically someone reversed engineered the code in the polling software, and found a backdoor to rewrite our theme package. All the information on this site is secure and nothing was lost. I have been screening all of the new members, and i am in the process of reviewing the incoming logs. Once I locate the data I am looking for, I will be forwarding this info to our provider and they will pass it on to the authorities. There was over 100,000 websites hit with this same attack and are in the process of doing the same. There is no 100% secure form of CMS that is out there, but i'm looking at possibly making a change in the future. As of today, the polling system has been removed.

There are no virus issues on this site as we speak. The only way you will receive a virus from this site, is by clicking on a link that someone has posted. Be careful with posted links..... if you do not know the member posting or the link looks strange.... drop me a line and i will check it out.

Driver Distraction
NewsThe Saskatchewan government announced that is will be pushing through legislation to ban the use of cell phones (and more so texting) when driving as of January 1, 2010. It makes sense and many accidents have been attributed to drivers distracted in this manner. What's not clear is whether the legislation will include other hand held devices such as GPSr's. I will keep you posted as more information becomes availabe
