Maybe this wont help me, but I need you guys' technical expertise here. Some "PWP" hacker guy is editing the first news story on my www.guitar6.com website. How do I prevent this and how could I possibly repay the debt I owe him  ? I use Nuke, a content management system, but no one else knows the password or my account. Please help!

Maybe you should change your password.

There are very few REAL hackers on the Internet... Most of the time, it just happens to be that somebody found out somebody else's password...
Even in the case of viruses, most of the time its somebody using a virus they didn't make... Most of these people TRULY have no lives... It's sad.

It wasn't a hacker really, just a group of wannabes. I found a forum discussion at Nuke's site about this - it's a security hole that allows news articles to be posted/edited even without an admin password. There's a patch available and everything. The Nuke security cop hackers have also recently hacked up the wannabe's site!

Yep... It's so silly that these people attack other computers, yet are extremely vulnerable themselves!
I guess that sums it up, along this:
