    [moderator samboll] Links NOT work friendly

    Hi i have a major problem.

    The WordPress address (URL) of My wordpres 2.3 install kept being resetted to http://www.sexxx.com so all my visitors are directed to sexxx.com

    A made a new database with new database name and username and password and also altered the wordpress admin pass.Then i tried a new wordpress install.Worked like a charm.A few hours later the wordpressurl again was changed to sexxx.com. The wordpress version was 2.3 so i updated to the latest wordpress and added the personel key to the configfile.Thought that everything was solved.
    But now a few hours later again the wordpress url is changed to sexxx.com

    what can i do!?

    What is the URL to your site?
    What theme are you using? What plugins do you have installed?

    If your Wp 2.3. has been hacked (and everything tells that is was, indeed) then just upgrading will not eliminate the initial problem.
    You will have to examine and clean every folder, every file…
