Hey.. me again lol.
Well.. This time! A guy is attacking my server AND my computer. He managed to get himself a GOD Char in my server, and when i found him & deleted him, he SHUT DOWN my computer! My securities are:
*Mysql&Xampp difficult password.
*Very good anti virus, one of the top 5 in world.
What more can I do.. I heard that u can use LightHttp which is supposed to be better than my apache o.o
Well 2 questions abt LightHttp then..
1. How did he manage to shut down my computer?
2. Even if there is a way doing that, how to use LightHttp? :D

Thanks in advance,

Yours,

RoHaN

I am not sure if this is true anymore, but before there were security holes in xampp. So he's maybe using some kind of security hole that hasn't been detected yet. Or you are using an outdated version of Xampp.
If u want, you could go over to Uniform insted (Got everything you need for a OT). There is a guide for setting one up (Don't remember where though)

Nope it can't be Apache, that's just a webserver.

Another thing that maybe could be.... is that u have downloaded something (like a malware or keylogger) that have infected your computer. So he can access your computer remote.

You can always stay with In Game Character creation (Account Manager) + Plain information website, just until you do realize whats going on with the security

It will happen again, for sure.
I know how you do feel in this kind of situations, but having to close the server because donors leaving when they watch your server getting hacked, losing items, free vip items for everyone, shutdowns, its worse, i would recommend you having in game account creation or another website creator, there is one around that is very good, if you dont feel like doing this, go for a different package than Xampp

I agree with all advices from our great fellows, but if i were you, i would try to back all the system up, just the necessary (ot system, and backup your databate and MAYBE your website (if you can redo from a trustable gesior or modern package, do it), then i should format my hd (fdisk and format) and reinstall all over with the latest packages (xampp and so on). Try not to download suspicious programs, try to get one that ppl already use. Everything you need to run an ot you can find here in otland. Remember the problem may not be with the Open tibia programns, if you host the ot at your personal computer your have great chances to get any kl or backdoors with your own personal programs (emails, games, cracks, sites, movies, image files....) or even consider other ppl that uses the same machine (friends and family (yes, my father is the GETTING TROJANS, KLS MASTER! o0)) lol

Tell us if you need any more help!

Thanks alot for all the help...
Two questions:
How did they manage to SHUT DOWN my computer?
What other packages are there than xampp? I tried uniform but it didnt work.. followed every step on tutorial.

If they shut down your computer it is more like a virus (Trojan) than anything, with most trojans they can watch what your actually doing on your computer i.e see your screen and also take over your webcam,mouse,keyboard and so on i don't think they could get access to your computer through xampp
