Comments made in the last day or so may have been lost.

For quite a while my website has been mysteriously misbehaving in ways that caused ever increasing grief to commentors, plus I discovered two big security holes.

In the course of attempting to fix all this, the hosting computer ceased to be bootable.

So, reformat, reinstall. Which is probably what I should have done in the first place instead of getting deep in the weeds.

The most recent backup is quite recent, but it was losing comments before the most recent backup.

This should not take very long at all, but I am likely to run into the unforseen and unexpected, which might take considerably longer.
