The "a big hole in the web" Unofficial Torque Uploader is gone for good..but that doesn't mean the files are gone!
I'll continue to host the files I have, but as for the uploading portion, well, someone abused it, so I removed it.
Happy New Year to you all!

Was it a permissions, execution issue?
I would consider hosting, but I would need to check how to lock down the files and only accept certain file types. Was it a file type that was uploaded that could be executed? I have seen .htaccess settings to lock down what filetypes can be accessed and I would imagine one could lock down what gets uploaded or downloaded. If you have details I would love to know.

I don't have the time to spend on this being fixed into better form..Sean Rice has the same uploader setup on his domain..hopefully his won't fall victim.
The system was pretty basic, if you want the files to use, I'll email them to you.

I'm not sure frank, I sterilized what I found and closed her up without further regard of investigating the kiddies' nonsense.I don't have the time to spend on this being fixed into better form..Sean Rice has the same uploader setup on his domain..hopefully his won't fall victim.

I will keep my uploader active for the time being, EB, maybe we can setup that two way sync on your side. I am almost done with my site that handles uploads by user account. abighole.hngamers.com

Haha, funny, I found at least one picture that made it through the sync before you deleted it, I removed the offending item.
