BuffaloHelp 24 Report post Posted September 2, 2005 Always backup your files off site--meaning at your hard drive or some place safe. If your cPanel gets hacked in, the hacker can't do that much of damage except disrupt your service and delete all your things. OpaQue has now set up this like https://support.xisto.com/ and you can select the option 7 to reset your cPanel password. You can reset your password and enter and make it all right again. Then you can reload all your backed up files from your hard drive or from a safe place. See?If your handle gets banned or disabled from posting, you can always PM administrators and they can check correct the issue. There are logs that can track which names are logged in by which IP. So administrators will know right away that it wasn't you. As long as your IP is not banned from this forum you can create a temp ID and contact administrators, IF and only if you cannot get to this forum.But the bottom line, no Xisto does not back up your site for you. You have to do that yourself. Okay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rejected 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2005 My website has been hacked multiple times, but because I have different passwords for my CPanel and my account on the forums, they were only able to take control of my website. After I had discovered this, I emailed the admins about my situation and they reset my password. Of course that was before this feature to change your cpanel had been created, so now all you would have to do is go onto the script to change your cpanel password...and voila!
