Warning for Everyone- Please Read

Journal Entry: Fri Feb 6, 2009, 11:24 PM

A person (or group of people) has taken it upon himself/herself to mount an attack on DA

The attack comes in the form of links which appear on Deviant's pages and provides them with a link.... this link takes you to a fake DA login page. DO NOT and I repeat DO NOT enter your login and password here! If you do the attacker then has access to your deviant account.

So far the attack has been quite civil and thus only a minor annoyance, simply spamming other deviants.... but with access to a seemingly large number of deviants' accounts so far if it escalates there could be some serious damage done.

The links take the following forms (that I have seen so far)...

Check out this blog... link

A Valentine for you... link

I saw your picture on someone's blog... link

So please be careful with your account info and if you've already been 'hacked' be sure to change your password right away to avoid any major issues!

Thank you so much for the warning! It seems that a bunch of loooosers don't know what to do with their spare time :-/!

I noticed that

is on the hit-list from those knuckleheads and it makes me a kind of sad...

Again thank you so much for the warning

My pleasure

Luckily Firefox blocked the offending website for me but I have seen a few friends whose accounts have been compromised so figured I should get the word

Shoutboard

"Those who feel nothing, or not completely at the time of the exposure, relying upon subsequent manipulation to reach an unpremeditated end, are predestined to failure.
The difference between a good and a bad art in any medium or of any age lies in the creative mind rather than in skill of hands. The way of seeing is what counts and that is conditioned by the artist's attitude, not by skill as craftsman. Given a big enough artist and he will make himself a consummate craftsman to better express his thoughts."

From "America and Photography"
Edward Weston.
