I am very sorry to say that a friend contacted me to say that his Joomla site has been hacked and that he’s finding a great difficulty in regaining control over it .
When I first compared WordPress to Joomla I said I saw many advantages it had over WordPress and a lot of friends and visitors commented saying that Joomla was very vulnerable to hacking and to be honest I didn’t believe them at first, but now I certainly do!
I tried to search online to find ways to regain the site and undo the damage done by the hackers but didn’t find anything useful, and even though I managed to install a couple of extensions which claimed to prevent hackers but nothing worked and the site got hacked again within a few minutes.
Joomla … I am really disappointed in you!
