Site Security

Tags: none.

All users have been logged out of this site tonight, as of 18:28 GMT.

This coincides with a large security update applied to the codebase.

Let me know if anything has broken - the site-messaging system was down for a while, but it looks like I've beaten that back into submission.

More details to come in the near future.

My RSS feed shows "nifty little tool -- histring", but i get an error page when i click on this. Is this something to do with the update?

Sorry, I was testing some of the updates and we caught a few more bugs.

One of our administrators decided to test my security fix .. on one of the areas I'd not yet fixed. So kinda!

The article was removed since it wasn't 100% ready for publishing, but it will be posted shortly.

I hope the suspense is worth it ;)
