    One of my wordpress blogs got hacked and my site is redirecting to a different site.... When I check the phpmyadmin, there is another sql server that I am not familiar with... and there are around 17 table... I cannot delete the tables... I already contacted my host and still waiting for response...

    The installed database is information_schema (17)

    Are you familiar with this?

    Thanks

    I've experienced same situation. One DP member hired me the other day to make a blog using wordpress but unfortunately, my wordpress account was hacked! Sad to say that he didn't continue the project anymore. Until now, I haven't received any payment.

    I was having same problem once and i have made an habit of changing password quite often and change instantly when you have given password to someone for doing some work.
