Hi, Jonathan:

Thanks for letting us know. I can't imagine that the unavailability of RSiteSearch would be more than an inconvenience.


When you get time, I'd like to know more about what you know about how it was hacked, the host operating system, any anti-virus / Internet protection software that failed and anything you think might reduce the risk of a repeat in the future.


      Best Wishes,
      Spencer Graves

I am going to have to take down the server for RSiteSearch, which is
finzi.psych.upenn.edu, for at least a couple of days starting Sunday
morning. It has been hacked. And I have another server that has also
been hacked, which is higher priority (sjdm.org). On Monday, I will
probably have time to rebuild that one, but I may not have time to
rebuild finzi for another week. I will try to get it all done in one
day, but I don't know if I can.

Sorry about this.

I thought that there was an alternative to this site, namely
http://rdocumentation.org/
but, as bad is my site is, that one, I think, is worse.

Jon
