Vizzed.com domain turned 20 years old this month! I actually wasn't even old enough to buy the domain 20 years ago. Jake-A-Roonie bought it for me, and then the following year I turned 18 and got a debit card so that I could start paying for it.

Vizzed.com was founded 1 1/2 years before this version of the site was created, and it was founded roughly 1 year after the first Vizzed Board came to life. So the history of Vizzed has a lot of different milestones and anniversaries, but this is probably one of the biggest. Not many sites or domains last this long on the internet. It's incredible that I've been able to have a community that continues to use the site, even after all these years.

I'm still working on putting together a YouTube video. Not sure when that'll be done, maybe in a few weeks. Either way, it'll still be released before the year ends, so it'll still come out during the anniversary year (just not the year and month).

Thank you everyone for being a part of the history of Vizzed.com

I've implemented some extra security to the site. A hacker discovered a few exploits 2 months ago, and was kind enough to show me what the exploits were, and how to fix them. If you're reading this hacker, thanks again, and feel free to email me or contact me if you notice anything else.

If anyone notices any issues with the site that started occurring after this update, please let me know ASAP so that I can fix it.


Securing the Inputs
I've updated the script that analyzes and cleans any data that gets inserted into the database. I also updated the headers of the site.


Securing the Passwords
I've updated the site's password encryption. The old was very outdated. The new one makes it so much more difficult to crack a user's password.

NOTE: User passwords will only use the new encryption after a user changes their password (and for new users). So, I highly recommend everyone update their Vizzed password at some point, if you want to ensure your account is more secure. I'll eventually make an alert that reminds each user to change their password.


HTML Cleaner
I'm utilizing HTMLPurifier for most input that involves HTML. This analyzes any HTML that gets submitted to the site, removes anything that might be potentially malicious, and also fixes the HTML if there's anything broken. Inputs that would utilize this include Posts, various profile editing, etc.

This also allowed me to eliminate the z tags that sometimes get placed into various thread titles, posts and other sections of the site.
