Sitting here, drinking coffee, preparing for the short ride into work (probably have to stop off at Meijer to pick up some turnovers … mmmmm turnovers!) when I noticed this on my wordpress logs tail
Hey … someone is trying to hack us. Cool. But what does this say?
Ok, let me use a quickie script to handle this for me …
`<code>
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $hex="\xd0\xa1\xd0\xbf\xd0\xb0\xd1\x81\xd0\xb8\xd0\xb1\xd0\xbe, \xd0\xbf\xd0\xbe ... \xd1\x87\xd1\x82\xd0\xbe \xd0\xbf\xd0\xbe\xd1\x87\xd0\xb5\xd1\x80\xd0\xbf\xd0\xbd\xd1\x83\xd1\x82\xd1\x8c";
printf "%s\n",$hex;
</code>
`
Cool. What does it print out?
Hmmm… my Russian’s not that good. I know … what … 5 words? And one of my former colleagues, who is Russian, upon hearing me (mis)pronounce a word I though I knew, told me to stick with English … Ok, lets ask Google Translate.
(ROTFLMAO!) Ok. I am getting spammed. Not hacked. Look folks, if I and my readers can’t even read the spam …. I mean, c’mon now. Whats next … spam in sudoku puzzles? Solve this and get your free ED meds? Geez…
