To make backups or not to make backups?

A few days ago I received the dreaded email from Google with the title: “Malware notification regarding on5mf.be”.

I won’t write all the not so nice words that I wanted to shout at that moment 🙂

But pretty recently (only 3 weeks ago) I had started making backups of my websites (this site but also my company websites www.geldhofhout.be and www.wisatrans.be) and see, this now pays off!

OK, I agree, it didn’t work at first but after the third try I could reinstall the last backup of the site and it was back up and running!

A look at www.stopbadware.org gave me some hints to tighten the security of the site a little further so hopefully we’re up and running again for a long time.
