Rebuilding the Website

Sometime in October or November 2008, all of my personal websites were attacked. As soon as we thought they were up and running again, they were right back to the way they were. I will tell you, it was driving me crazy! This month I decided to take a drastic measure. I backed everything up that needed to be backed up (SQL databases and pictures), then moved my website to a new host. I then proceeded to reinstall Joomla! 1.5, and the components that I was using on the old site, uploaded my pictures, and imported my SQL tables. That in and of itself made having a dynamic website so worth it! It took about 2 hours tops. Mind you, this website doesn't have the content that my main site has, but I was so relieved that I didn't have to add all of those links again! I think I would have cried!

Anyway, my website is clean. If you aren't sure, go out and download the Avast Anti-Virus Program. It's totally worth the time and effort. I'll never use another one.
