I made a website for a guy, been keeping a casual eye on it and it's fine, if boring.

Then he calls in a panic to tell me it's been hacked, there is porn everywhere and funny underlined words and I must fix it right now!

So I drop what I'm doing and access the site and it's fine. I use a few different devices and even a couple of different networks and can't see a thing wrong with it.

Then I spent half an hour on the phone trying to convince him that his own shady surfing habits are causing this on his computer only.

I get the feeling he didn't believe me because he hasn't paid the latest invoice..

    Clients are always right. You tracked his static IP and you redirecting him to porn sites. Admit it

    How about asking him if it's only that site or anywhere..
    That should give an indication of what's up :p

    @lotd I did ask him because I remembered what his PC was like the one time I went there to help him setup something.. he didn't see anything strange in *other* websites looking like that. It was only when his own business site sprouted weird content that he moaned about it.

    Shit. That motherfucker would pay me quick. I don't play that shit. I'd flip the script quicker than he could click on a livejasmin camgirl. A strongly worded letter from your attorney will work.
