Scary biscuits today about the internet being hackable. From The Grauniad:-

Websites across the world have been taken offline in the past day as governments and businesses work to patch newly discovered vulnerabilities in PHP, a programming language that underpins much of the internet. The exposed flaw would have allowed hackers to carry out cyber-attacks. 

An estimated 70% of websites use PHP, with millions of sites potentially affected by the vulnerabilities. Wikipedia and Facebook are among those.

Oh bother. I hope this is not as bad as it could be.....

PS - 17:00 hrs :  Swansea Uni has just shut down some of their public facing sites....
