The Comment

Well, now that i see all the sites i got access to has been reconfigured, i will let you know which is the comment that gave me the password. But first, i want to cite this:
Wow. What a big brain this guy has. Not only did he guess an easily guessed password based on published clues, but he -- a non hacker -- figured out what to do with that knowledge to make an ass of himself! #
This was only to probe that no one is safe from hackers, not even smart people as Matt —not you, obviously— and even more important is that you have to take good care of your information and what you give public access in the web. This may not be the best way to do it, but it gets to the point, so if i make the difference, even for 1 person, then it would have worked. Don´t like it, close the window, It is called freedom. Now, back to the comment thing... forget all the stupid ideas about security risks, password cracking, md5 hashes , exploits and all that crap, OK? It has nothing to do with WordPress. Wordpress is perfectly safe, and you can keep on using it. I got the password in plain text, and i found it in a public web address, that was accessible to ANYONE who has an internet connection.

Due to the fact that not everyone can afford the high prices of the brand name Viagra, manufacturers have created a generic viagra version of it, a copy containing the same ingredients and formula, producing the same effects but having a different look. Generic Viagra online is intended for those who need a cheaper version of Viagra. You can buy viagra online at excellent prices, and you can even find offers and discounts online as well.
