Thanks, Rat. Sorry, but I agree with Sneaky. Really, if you can't put an SSL on the site, you need a new site because you are putting your users at risk.

Do they even know that you don't have an SSL?

$99? What are you......taking lessons from Ray??? How could you do that to your users after going after Ray for all tthose months? That's disgusting!! Puke

why did you [TheTradersPost] choose a script with a history of security problems?
http://www.google.com/search?q=secunia+a...lassifieds&btnG=Search&hl=en&c2coff=1&safe=off&rls=GGGL%2CGGGL%3A2006-26%2CGGGL%3Aen&sa=2

The scriptmaker hasn't fixed a security problem which the US Government's US-CERT rates as "High Risk"
http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2007-5122

The security alert was issued in September 2007.Â Why didn't you check the script's history before you bought it?

Quote:Overview

Anybody with access to Google could find the instructions for hacking the script because it is on the first page of search results for "softbiz classifieds".Â Didn't you notice that 4 of the 10 results on page one of a Google search for the script pertain to the script's security problems???

Yep it's a cheap ass script. Never pretended it was anything different...or did you miss those posts too?

Question...why are you just now bringing up the SSL issue? Didn't you care about anyone's security on there before now?

Yet another Ebay alternative owner trying to pass the blame to others for their own boinkups.Â Did you learn that trick from Ray Romeo?Â He excels at never accepting responsibilty,

It's the site owner's responsibility to provide users with a safe secure site.Â It's the site owner's responsibility to check for security vulnerabilities and install SSL certificates. The blame for the failure to do that for the past 6 months falls entirely on YOU, not on users or the script writer or OAI forum posters.

Sneaky, I don't believe I was 'blaming' anyone. Just stating facts.

Did you take it I was blaming you? I simply asked why you waited until now to mention the SSL seeing as how you've known about the site all along and typically you bring things like this to everyone's attention as soon as you discover it. I was just curious as to what sparked your ire about it today.

I'm not sure what your recent vendetta against Joe and me (particularly me it seems) is, nor do I care. I do find it hard to believe it's simply over the few things you've posted about though.

Either way...TTP is no longer an issue and neither is your apparent distaste for me...at least not as far as I'm concerned.
