Article Submitter Pro News

You'll be happy to know that the site updates are finished and Hubert has successfully removed all the directories that were no longer working, or had been hacked. About 90 Article Dashboard style directories that were hosted on Yahoo were hacked and loaded with trojans and worms. Fortunately for our Article Submitter Pro users, they can safely submit their articles through the software now without fear of "catching" anything.

Out of all the article directories, about 220 of them had problems, all of them low PR with some virtually abandoned by their owners. So all in all, the loss isn't so bad, and we have new article directories coming on board all the time. This still gives us over 1,200 fully working, safe article directories you can submit to. Far more than any of our competitors.

Speaking of competitors, if you know of anyone who's using one of those low end article submitters, you might warn them about the Yahoo hosting hack. Just about every site those submitters submit to are Article Dashboard style directories, so no doubt they're being effected.

That's all for now :)

You'll notice a few updates to your copy of Article Submitter Pro in the next couple of weeks. We're conducting a site update which we'll release over time.

One issue we've come across is at least 90 Article Dashboard style directories hosted by Yahoo have been hacked and loaded with trojans and worms. Every one of these directories has to be removed from the preloaded list until they can be repaired by the directory owners.

Now this isn't such a big deal for Article Submitter Pro users because that still leaves over 1,200 article directories still available, But for some of the other article submitters, 90 sites out of 200 is quite a lot of sites to lose.

We highly recommend you use a good anti-virus product whenever you interact with web sites outside of your own control.
