	<andypie>	mtoups are ypou there?
	<andypie>	matt?
	<mtoups>	andypie: why would i be awake at this hour?
	<andypie>	same reason I am?
	<andypie>	we've been hacked
	<mtoups>	well
	<mtoups>	you mean someone has posted an html tag
	<andypie>	in the title of the comments - many times
	<mtoups>	anyway, i found 23 comments with META tags in the heaidng
	<andypie>	redirect top a pornn site
	<andypie>	to a porn site
	<mtoups>	i know, other IMC sites had that problem
	<andypie>	what can be done?
	<mtoups>	so those are supposed to be caught before the comment is 
published
	<mtoups>	it doesn't work on the pittsburgh IMC site for example
	<mtoups>	so it is something that was fixed already
	<mtoups>	but the cleveland site isn't on the most up to date code
	<andypie>	can you put us on that code?
	<mtoups>	its whatever was up to date when stav and i worked on it 2.5 
years ago
	<mtoups>	and to answer your question, no, i don't have time
	<andypie>	stav is gone. we don't have tech
	<andypie>	is there a quick switchover?
	<andypie>	we are also floded with cialis ads - sf has a fix
	<andypie>	it involves a project fromm carnegie mellon
	<mtoups>	yes, captchas, i know the guy who invented them
	<andypie>	I'mm at a loss as how to proceed on making these changes
	<mtoups>	feel free to ask the sf people to share their work, we'd like 
that too
	<andypie>	I can contact ryan
	<andypie>	some people in our collective want to changeover too the sf 
format anyway
	<andypie>	is Drupal compatible with your server?
	<mtoups>	well, um
	<mtoups>	i guess
	<andypie>	just a thought
	<mtoups>	but we can't run it
	<mtoups>	the server is frickin 200mhz
	<andypie>	wicked fast
	<mtoups>	it can't keep up with the current load so we can't go 
installing fancy stuff like drupal
	<mtoups>	anyway i hid all of the comments with HTTP-EQUIV but the 
pages need to be regenerated
	<mtoups>	and i will fix it so that those cannot be posted anymore
	<mtoups>	and then i will go to sleep!
	<andypie>	thanks eternally - we get a lot of comments on the catholoic 
Worker arrests from a lot of very straightlaced people
	<andypie>	I didn't mean to wake you up
	<mtoups>	that's ok, i don't wake up for irc anyway
	<andypie>	zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
	<andypie>	out
