Sometimes we learn something new and do not even realise it. It might be something small that could affect our future dramatically and we didn't notice. Or it may be something high that we cannot help but see it.
This blog is basically a journal of lessons I have learnt.

Well! None too soon.
Shortly after I posted the main post to the blog I found one of my sites had a hack attack and the "fun" and games started and lasted two days.
This morning the hacker and I were on the site at the same time - I change my password then "it" changed my password, so we ping ponged along until I got my host to do an Apache restart to dump "it" off.
I finally got the web site updated with the new release and installed some security measures.
Heck, I'm not a programmer or back-end boffin but I had to learn some stuff fast.
