So either my website was hacked a second time or, more likely, I missed the hidden file in the domain root directory last time when I was cleaning things up. If you tried to directly click on the video link of Abby crawling in the previous post or the link above to my website you may have gotten a message from Google saying my website is a reported attack site. I believe I have fixed my website. I talked to my provider this morning and with their help found a hidden file that was redirecting people to malicious website. The part that sucks is I have no way of knowing if that file was put there back at the beginning of the month when I was hacked the first time or if I received a second attack. This is very frustrating. I have, through Google's webmaster tool, requested that Google revisit my website hopefully removing my malicious status, assuming I have actually fixed my site.

If anyone knows of some good web tools that can help me check my site for malicious content that would be greatly appriciated. I have looked through all of my HTML files and did not see anything that looks malicious. My entire sight is pretty much just text and images organized/display using simple HTML code mostly made up of tables. The only script I am using is the page visit counter at the bottom of some of the pages.

Someone hacked my website this weekend. I noticed it yesterday just before I left work. Best I can tell is somehow the permission on the root directory of my web server were set to allow everyone write access. Luckily whoever did it simply overwrote the main page index.html file with their tag and moved on. It appears that none of my other content was messed with. I restored the main page index from a backup and changed all my passwords and double checked that all sub-directories are read access only for public users. Any other suggestions on how to increase the security of my web server would be greatly appreciated.

I added this years successful deer hunting story to my website to go with the story from back in 2003 and wrote a new introduction to that section of the website.

Updated section: Whitetail Deer Hunting with 410 slugs

Probably still several typos but I give it another proof read or two in a few day.

Not too much to brag about but my website (more specifically the information on 410 slugs gathered there) is one of this month's featured websites on Fourten.uk.org a UK website dedicated to the 410 shotgun. Sort of cool if I may say so myself.

I have added two new pages to my website recently.

The first is a page that collect all of this year's head cam video. If you have been reading my posts here you have probably seen most if not all of the video. Some of the stage have, pictures and diagrams to go with the video. Some updates and addition will probably follow and new matches will get added.

The second page was the results of yesterdays 410 slug testing. The big surprise with the testing was my cut down Brenneke slugs. Brenneke slugs are loaded in 3 inch 410 hulls and my Winchester 9410 only has a 2.5 inch chamber. Well the slug projectiles themselves appear to be designed for 2.5 inch shells and when loaded into 3 inch shells they add a spacer to make them work. Well I little remanufacturing I cut the shells down to 2.5 inches. The rest of the 410 slug I tested had just over 700ft-lb of muzzle energy. The Brenneke slugs delivered 1065ft-lbs of muzzle energy. They are also made from a harder alloy so between the hard slugs and extra energy the preform much better in terminal ballistics then the rest of the slugs tested.

I still don't know either way for sure but I did an experiment with two unused magazine springs I had laying around. I finished up the experiment this weekend and added a new page to my website for it.
