    This guy has hacked some big websites and I'm wondering why he picked my blog Just Gareth with a strange description on it to my friend, Brockley???

    Good job hes only deleted a few main files (index.php, wp-config.php and other files), re-uploaded them there now. Heres a screenshot.

    Thank goodness he didn't wipe the whole site, kind of strange though?

    No, what were your file permissions?

    Was apache up to date?

    Possibly something was out of date.
