    My site has been completely wiped -- I can't log in to Word Press at all any more, either. I have no idea where to start. Help!? Thanks.

    I tried those links, but they seem to have minor problems -- look at my site and you'll see... I don't know where to start. I can't access WordPress anymore for starters. I have a support ticket in with my hosting company. It's not just a little hack or an ad, it's a takeover.
    Thanks.

    I did look at your site. We could look at it all day long, but that won't fix anything. The hacks have been placed in your files and/or your database. I also looked at your cached pages. That is how I know you have been using a version of WordPress that is easily hackable in may ways.

    There are no problems with those links. The last two just aren't "clickable" so they don't look like I am spamming. Copy and paste them in your browser address bar and they lead you to a wealth of information on what your problems could be.

    I don't know where to start.

    I gave you three excellent places to start.

    This link: http://wordpress.org/search/hacked+?forums=1 leads to answers to your questions posted in this very forum. Have you read any of it?

    You need to start reading, or hire someone to fix it for you.

    Best wishes.

    [Edit] Try this. Maybe it will let you log in.

    Have you done a dump of your database from your hosts control panel and examined it?
