One In Jesus

I’m about to redirect the DNS pointers so that going to OneInJesus.info will take you to the new cloud proxy server. (Not sure that means, but sounds so cool to say it!)

The theory is that this will protect the site from hackers much better than before.

The reality is that there may be some glitches in the transition. Here goes nothin’ …

My webhost had a hardware problem starting last night, making this and several other sites inaccessible. (At least it wasn’t another hack …)

The site is now back up, and I’m working with Sucuri to convert to a cloud proxy, which should (a) make for faster downloads and (b) make it nearly impossible to be hacked.

In the meantime, there will be glitches. That’s the nature of the computer world. I appreciate your patience. Hopefully, by some time tomorrow — maybe even sooner — the conversion will be over and the site will remain hack free for a long time.

(WordPress has been the target of a worldwide hacking scheme lately.)

The malware was cleaned from the site by Sucuri.net yesterday. Google reports that the site has been cleaned, but a Google search for the site may well report the presence of malware. It’s old news, awaiting an update. Such is the price of caching data for speed.

In the meantime, I’ve decided to upgrade to Sucuri’s proxy service, which should provide yet another level of protection. But the transition has been rough — and I’ve put it on hold until Monday.

The Sucuri proxy service should end the problem, by hiding the actual website from hackers.

I appreciate your patience. Fortunately, I’m on break and so this hasn’t blocked any posts of consequence.

There’s recently been a worldwide attack on WordPress sites. I did everything I was warned to do to avoid the attack. Still got hacked.

It’s been cleaned up by the fine folks at Sucuri. But while they were cleaning, Google flagged the site as dangerous. We’ve asked Google to retest and remove the flag. That should happen by morning.

Thanks to everyone who emailed to let me know about the problem. Since I was on the road, I would not have known otherwise. The warnings are greatly appreciated.

I’m investigating other protections against hackers — more expensive methods, I’m sure. I’ll keep you informed.

Meanwhile, I’m still on break while I deal with this dang piriformis syndrome. The direct injection into the piriformis muscle to stop the spasms has helped. I’ll get an injection tomorrow for bursitis.

Then more visits to doctors’ offices to put together a long-term strategy.

I’m on break. Enjoy.

Agree? Disagree? Are “worship” and “singing” really the same thing? Of course, not. We, of all people, know that there are four other acts of worship.
