I’ve backed up my WP database files and am going to look into possibly making edits to the wp_options table. According to that link you posted esmi (under the ‘If you forget to change the locations’) section, it mentions doing that.

Thank you, but unfortunately, that didn’t work. Once I’m in the dashboard, it still redirects me to the original location of the WP site files. ??

Another thing I’m noticing is thumbnails of the images I’m uploading are not showing up under the upload button as it says they should. I’m uploading the images by hosting them on my server and putting in the URL of each image.

Wonderful. Is this a common problem with WordPress sites? I haven’t even made this site live yet. I thought I read somewhere that WordPress sites getting hacked or infected is common and that you should always keep it updated.

I’m having the same problem with my WP site now. Google Chrome redirects to a page containing the following information:

[ Moderator note: If it contains malware, don’t share the link. ] contains content from centuriesdamage.info, a site known to distribute malware. Your computer might catch a virus if you visit this site.
Google has found malicious software may be installed onto your computer if you proceed. If you’ve visited this site in the past or you trust this site, it’s possible that it has just recently been compromised by a hacker. You should not proceed, and perhaps try again tomorrow or go somewhere else.
We have already notified centuriesdamage.info that we found malware on the site. For more about the problems found on centuriesdamage.info, visit the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page.

And one of the WP theme tech support guys notified me of this when his AVG picked it up when he tried pulling up the site on his machine. Here’s the screen shot he sent me.

Should I use one of the above mentioned tools to remove this?

I’ve spoken to the host company for my site and they suggested I scan all of my WP files with my anti virus software. I did this and it came out clean. So then (as suggested) I backed up my WP database files with one of the available plugins through the my WP dashboard and scanned the .sql file it created, which also came out as clean.

Hey Chris, that didn’t fix the problem. I did the version update through the dashboard when it notified me that the new version is available. The image uploader worked fine on 3.4.1. I also tried logging into the dashboard with Internet Explorer and get the same problem.
