Son-of-a-biscuit

November 19th, 2008

So Head in the Clouds (and many other sites) got hacked on Sunday, and some redirection code was inserted into the site which sent unsuspecting RSS Feed readers to a MalWare site in Moldavia.

We have now corrected this problem (with little help from our ISP I’m sorry to say) so it just remains for me to apologize if you suddenly found yourself on some strange new site!

If anyone a) lives in Moldavia and b) does cheap assassinations, please contact Twiggles and Cobbe. They may have a job for you.

    i wonder if twiggles and cobbe might be talking about this in upcoming strips.. hopefully their lives weren’t too affected by it.

    Good idea!

    I learned recently that the term for that sort of referential storyline is to “go meta” i.e. where the characters themselves acknowledge that they are in a strip, or on a webpage or whatnot.
