why does my admin page look like this…

Usual suspects: Did you dump your browser cache?

I did that, and now I get a blank page where my admin used to be.

Check on the server. Are the files there in wp-admin?

yes. Like I said, I have reloaded wordpress several times now.

I have the same problem as poprunna, I am also getting a code of eval(base64_decode(“aWYo.. in all my php files, I am so upset right now

poprunna, just because you’ve reloaded doesn’t mean all the files are there ?? By the way, the term you’re looking for is ‘reinstalled’ — reloaded implies you hit refresh on the webpage to reload it in your browser. Yes, semantics, but it matters sometimes ?? Now. HOW are you reloading?

jamking, you’ve been hacked. See https://blog.sucuri.net/2010/05/new-attack-today-against-wordpress.html for help.

method a) via godaddy, uninstalling wordpress the REINSTALLING via the godaddy WP application widget. or…

b) by downloading a fresh version of 2.9.2 from wordpress, then doing a manual install/overwrite via ftp

I have discovered I have also been hacked. I am downgrading from 2.9.2 back to the previous version that I had no problems with.

poprunna – Downgrading won’t help. The hack isn’t that WordPress is vulnerable.

See https://blog.sucuri.net/2010/05/new-attack-today-against-wordpress.html for help. You’re going to need to change all your passwords, too.

Also reinstalling via Go-Daddy’s installer generally isn’t the best way to go about it. Download a fresh copy of WordPress from this server.

You know… I’m starting to wonder if GoDaddy’s WP installation is what’s hacked…

well, if it helps Ipstenu (to return the favor, you’ve been a big help, thx), that’s what started this whole ordeal for me. I got an email from godaddy about a WP security issue, urging me to upgrade to 2.9.2, and that’s where all my trouble started.

You were probably hacked before, I’m afraid to say ??

My personal opinions about the issues with GoDaddy hosting aside, don’t bother downgrading. Read the sucuri blog post, follow their directions, CHANGE ALL YOUR PASSWORDS and never use FTP again.

Ipstenu You know… I’m starting to wonder if GoDaddy’s WP installation is what’s hacked…

Ipstenu I most certainly agree with you on that one I was on the phone with them for 2 hours this morning and the tech tried to put it on wordpress saying that they had a Security problem last night, so they are now running a scan on my files and I will know the results in 24 to 48hrs but after that I will have to fix the problem! I ran the wp-fix for the web version at https://blog.sucuri.net/2010/05/new-attack-today-against-wordpress.html still no luck. getting back on the phone with go-daddy now. stay tune

P.s Ipstenu I did install a new wordpress at go daddy yesterday!! go figure huh?

An important point here.

If you just reinstall WordPress and don’t change your passwords, you will be hacked again.

So please, even if you run the sucuri fix, remember to go change passwords. ??

got cha!!! thanks….
