No doubt some of you have seen the warning from Google. A rogue php file was placed somewhere on the site and would attempt to put an unauthorized cookie on your computer. I updated to the a newer secure installation but the file was there…somewhere. It was like looking for a needle in a proverbial haystack.

Short version:
I moved the site to www.thesullivanblog.com full time.
Long version:
I gave up because........I needed to backup the posts, delete everything, reinstall everything, restore the posts, and then ask Google to rescan the directory.
But…….I was already redirecting www.thesullivanblog.com to the original site at www.macadactyl.com/lilbit.
So…..instead I backed up the posts and moved them to www.thesullivanblog.com.
That was most people’s bookmark anyway so this shouldn’t affect most of you, your browser just won’t redirect you.
I’ll send this in an email as well in case you have the old site bookmarked. When time permits I’ll delete the old site completely and have Google rescan.
I like the new look though so I think this was worth it.
Love you guys,
Chad
