    Thanks govpatel.

    That doesn’t look cool. Wonder how this happened and whether the other blogs on my site are OK? Wonder what I have to do now? ??

    I think that this might be beyond my skillset, or time. Does anyone out there fix these things; sort of gun for hire?

    Thanks esmi.

    Just for the record here, this is what I’ve done so far.

    * Change FTP passwords and delete unneeded accounts – DONE
    * Change your secret keys – DONE
    * Take a backup of what you have – DONE
    * ADMIN over SSL – NOT SURE? One to ask hosts about.
    * Used Bullet Proof Security to create secure .htaccess for root and for wp-admin folder, and to deny access to BPS Master and BPS Backup
    * Checked active_plugins record for PHP code disguised as jpeg file – None

    And I’ve just noticed that my long blogroll has been cut down to just six links. All are correctly hyperlinked.

    Hi. My problems are getting worse. Another WordPress instance on the same hosting account has also been hit.

    I had a brief email exchange with https://sucuri.net last night who seem to have just the service I need, but they’re totally silent today. Can’t get a peep out of them. Maybe they’re just stacked.

    Does anyone know of a similar service to Sucuri?

    Tx.

    Right then. Sucuri got to me eventually, and tell me they’ve cleaned out the malware.

    Hopefully no-one gets that warning in Windows now!

    Thanks all for your help.

    Philip,

    Were you satisfied with Sucuri’s services?

    Yes, my sites got hacked, too, and I’m looking at them to do the clean up.

    Thanks for any insights.

    Cheers.

    Hi Photon-X,

    As you will tell from the thread, I was a little frustrated that a day passed without attention from Sucuri, but that appears to have been a blip.

    They cleaned my sites. I got hacked again. They looked into it further, cleaned them again and gave me advice on how to prevent reoccurrence. I took the advice, and so far so good.

    All in all, I recommend Sucuri.
