Hi there It took me a few hours to track down that file, so hopefully this is the end of my hacking problem. I thought I'll share my experience, and what I manage to do. Here is my list of issues I discovered so far: 1. Homepage was hacked and linked to some 'Emily Rose site' (What the hell!! Don't go to that page: www.fol49.org). I found the problem, and the malice code was in my theme folder > index.php. It was basic html page replacing my original code. 2. I couldn't login into my wordpress. Interesting! I found the spammer's email addy (i think) in my database. Only cause the password was changed, and my email addy was replaced. So I fixed all this up, and not sure if the villains email addy is his (assuming it is). In my opinion, I have pity for people who have no understanding of loving their neighbor as themselves. If there is any comments for reference that may help, then please feel free. Thanks in advance CHEERS
I can't stand this kind of stuff. I've also been hacked before, and it's not a laughing matter. Over time I've gotten better at blocking certain attacks but I would recommend going with a good web host that does daily back ups if you paranoid about it happening again, and can't afford a "crack security team".
Hi Alex, what did you do to block off these future attacks? Is a strong password still good enough? Do you reckon someone can have access to my cpanel? If so, how would they have gotten my details? Can any hosting company be a suspect? Sorry for the 100 questions, I've had 2 of my sites hacked already in less than a month already. At this rate, I feel a bit worried about adding more sites to my reseller account.
