I posted a link to a blog article and I noticed the description was NOT my material. It was all about payday loans, etc. Adware? Malware? Hacked?
I used Firebug to inspect the page, and I found this:
<em><div class="slider_wrapper_en">
<p>
First a consumer credit ratings are single digit payday loans online[ Spammy links redacted, no need to share those here. ]
Of course, I did not put that there. How did it get there? I'm the only admin with a strong password.
Please help and THANKS!
