    The MySQL server on my VPS crashed the other day, and checking in my wp_options table I found over 1000 wp_session entries like this:
    a:1:{s:12:”vcita_expert”;b:1;}

    Thinking these were being created by the new feature: ‘Meeting Scheduler – by vCita’; (being as I don’t have this feature enabled anyway) I deleted this folder from the si-contact-form plugin folder.

    I then manually deleted all these wp_sessions from my database, but noticed that this wp-session still keeps getting added to my database:
    a:3:{s:24:”fsc_shortcode_redirect_1″;s:0:””;s:22:”fsc_shortcode_hidden_1″;s:0:””;s:24:”fsc_shortcode_email_to_1″;s:0:””;}

    Then the wp-sessions like this keep getting added:
    _wp_session_8c5fb3d0c5626b3d589e5bb6652394f4 a:1:{s:12:”vcita_expert”;b:1;}

    Starting to suspect a hack, because WordPress should not normally retain sessions (Register_Globals is off on my server).

    Disabled Fast Secure Contact Form plugin on our duplicate test site, and the added wp_sessions stopped.

    This has only started with the latest updates of FS contact form. (Wasn’t happening with version 3.1.6.3.)

    Anybody else getting this?
