Thread  RSS Where did everybody go? Seriously...?

If I got online and started seeing every site as hacked like that, the first thing I'd do is a full virus scan on my computer... except I use a Mac and those rarely get viruses.

I use a Mac too, Wolfwood wink And yes, viruses aren't really a problem on Macs these days but a long time ago there were quite a few viruses that could infect the old boxy looking Macs.

It was really annoying, too, because it was terribly hard to remove those viruses.

That dream reminds me of Fallout.

Having a dream like that would make me super paranoid. This is why I keep so many backups of the site, although I've actually had dreams where all of those backups were suddenly gone. Very disturbing yet quite unrealistic scenario. I do worry about hackers, sometimes, which is why such extensive measures are taken to monitor traffic on the server and prevent anything suspicious (or at least catch it and, in some cases, allow it so we can gather evidence!)

Just remember: Dreams are just dreams. If you dwell on them too much, they can affect your mind in waking life. Self-fulfilling prophecies, or something.

I'd scan the hell out of my PC if I saw anything like that pop up unexpectedly.
