I have figured this out.

All we need to do is find the guy who can write this;
I tried to correct it through MySQL and fixed some of the problems. I then broadcasted an SOS and was sent an admin toolkit, which I uploaded and managed to inject the corrected tables in the MySQL database.
and this,


The MD5 hash algorithm had a security flaw identitified in the '90s. This vulnerability mainly exists (if I understand it well) in the encoding algorithm which does not necessarily guartanee uniquness within a 128 bit code. This can result in scrambled messages in certain cases. For this reason checksums are often added. I'm not really sure what the intent was in concatenating MD5 hash, but clearly it was being manipulated or more likely corrupted as a consequence of him cracking in the database. Once inside, SQL is simple to write.

Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

I'm showing how computer challenged I am, but with a computer number - as displayed above - it can be pinged, and my youngest son can easily determine the location of the computer.

He's done it for me several times. Obviously it can't be that simple though.

Actually it is simple, but, it's behind a proxy.

Steve we get that every day. That and spammers selling prescription medications. The next time Michelle logs in they will be gone. As a moderator yourself, you know that she can't be here every minute. Our other moderator, Frank, is "between computers" right now but should be able to help her soon.

Warning: clicking to the front page to look at some naked women is cool and only results in an easily removable cookie. But clicking further will make your anti-virus program scream at you. I don't know how I know that, I just do. 8)

Almost midnight in Tennessee - I'm gone.

Well, they have more time than I do. Tomorrow I will work on it, but this time I am going to use a double md5 hash.

Only thing I can think of, Steve, is to hit the setting where the administrator has to approve all new members. That's a huge pain in the butt, though. :roll:

The IP address shown in Steve's post is not registered in the international database but is part of a block assigned to the Asian Pacific region. The referring address is given as Australia (for Asia Pacific Network Information Centre which maintains the registry in that region). This does not necessaily mean your hacker is in Australia, however. A proxy server or firewall can put out a phony IP address.

Every member here is screened by the admins. Which at the time of my application, had I known how many bots and spammers try to get in, I would have given them more info in my profile. Most of these spammers are obvious however with their interests or web site references.

Charlie has a good idea. Screen the membership.

Just because I don't like people messing with my internet experience, I dug a little further. Turns out your spammers IP is registered in APNIC to the owner block shown below. This looks like a telecom company and so could be an ISP. Again, this only means the IP used by the spammer in registered to this group. Does not necessarily mean it was assigned to him by this group or its proxy servers.

I am done looking now.

Michelle had to go to Admin approval here. Cut down on the number of porn site spammers.....unfortunately.

It cannot be to hard to do if the can justify it for something this minor.
Note the last 2 paragraphs.

TRENTON, Ohio (AP) — Two teenage girls posted a fake announcement on their school district's website that said school was closed for the day due to winter weather, police said.
The notice, posted Monday, confused many parents — snow was not in the forecast — and persuaded some students to stay home.

Edgewood City Schools Superintendent Tom York said he discovered the posting when he logged on to write his own announcement that school would be delayed for an hour because of an extreme cold snap.

"I didn't make that call, and I'm the guy who does, so I knew something was up," York said.

The two Edgewood High School students, whose names were not released, were charged in juvenile court on Friday and face expulsion. One of the girls, 16, was charged with delinquency by unauthorized use of a computer and by reason of records tampering. The other, 17, was charged with delinquency by reason of complicity, Sheriff's Sgt. Monte Mayer said.

The company that runs the website, RCH Networks Inc., said the system was not hacked into because no security breach was detected. Administrators say the girls must have somehow gotten the password.

RCH helped the district track down the girls by supplying the identification numbers from computers that accessed the system, which authorities could then track to the girls' homes.

Trenton is about 25 miles north of Cincinnati.
