Spy Journal 3.0 Filtering the web for you

I am busy upgrading all our websites. both our company and personal ones and all our customers sites. there have been a number of security issues on the web lately with both Drupal and IE. See this story about Badware on Ethans blog - this is similar as to what happened to this site about a week after I launched it.

Fortunately I found the problem almost immediately and was able to delete the hacked scripts. However they kept coming back and I couldn't figure out how. I changed the administrator password and that stopped them. Then I upgraded the site and the problem has now gone away.

I'm playing with the Windows Live Beta toys at the moment

Specifically the Photo Gallery and the Live Writer as means of creating a richer blogging experience for myself and also for clients.

The setup was very simple and pain free. If this works ( and I think it will) then Windows Live plays nicely with Drupal.

Dries Buytaert, the creator of Drupal just posted an article stating that Brittany spears new website was built in Drupal. I flicked over to http://www.britney.com to see and have posted a screen shot of what I found - check out the Google Adsense ads!

In an interview, Dries Buytaert the founder of drupal, tells all about the Drupal project and sheds light on why Drupal is such a success.
