This is pretty urgent for anyone who's running Coppermine Photo Gallery: you need to upgrade to the latest version (1.4.18) as soon as possible. Last Friday, someone hacked into our Coppermine Gallery and uploaded a script that messed up EVERY PHP file on that subdomain. If you haven't already been hacked, consider yourself lucky and upgrade before it happens. Trust me, it isn't fun, especially when you find out that BlueHost does NOT have a backup from last week or yesterday to restore for you. Here's what support told me:
I'm sorry, I wish I had better news, but we do not have any backups available for your account at this time. Backups are occasionally run as a courtesy and are not guaranteed.
I need to set up an automatic backup routine.
Everybody running Coppermine should check their websites and make sure that no one has added an <iframe> to each page of their website, or even some of them.
For more information...

By the way, Fantastico (as usual) does not have the latest version. SimpleScripts does.
God bless,
Joel
