Hacked!

I was hovering over a post on my Google desktop and I noticed this mishmash of spam gunk coming from the title of my last gorgeous Rhythm post. What the heck? I was hacked!

Here I am launching a new book, making a lot of changes, and now this? Spam on my site? A little reading brought to light the fact that my situation was not all that unusual. Tons of sites have been hacked with this same RSS feed problem. Code is placed in your SQL database, in your theme files, wp_config file, and even in the spam plug-in folder.

My only choice was to completely tear out the blog, find a new theme, and re-upload the whole thing.

Very timely, I think. This way I get a fresh new look with new blogging features and a fresh start. I’ll be making the blog look way more Orgasmic Guy in the coming days.

And do check out my new book! What Guys Do.

Cheers!
