2 things ...

1.  I am hosed on a shared server with many other users.  I have the
latest patches and such for my CMS software, but this is a cpanel server
(no comments on cpanel security from me)

2.  I have some secret admirers who keep scanning my site and are
purposely hacking me.  Such is life when you are a OS devel, most normal
people wont get this volume of hack scripts tried against their site.

Anyway ... I will continue to harden the site and plug the holes the
best I can.  I'm sure my admirers will continue to try their f'ing hack
tools ... so we shall see how it goes.

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
