I've Been Chosen!!

So, two days ago I got an email from CrytalTech, my host, saying they took my blog down because spammers were using trackbacks to hammer the site until it took the entire server down. One entry was getting 4,000+ hits which just crippled the entire site.

I got the issue resolved and turned trackbacks off for this site completely. The site has been up and down it appears, but at least no more trackbacks to kill it. I still need to clean up my database with several thousand rows. I hope to do that tonight or tomorrow.

I'm finally a big boy now! I'm a target of spammers! How exciting is that? Not very.
