my site seems fine.
Where are you seeing this?
See: http://labs.sucuri.net/db/malware/malware-entry-mwspamseo
Hacks can happen from other ways than your password – talk to your hosting company.
If you do not clean up your site from this malware, it could be blacklisted, and your host could close your account and delete all files. Please review all those links!
And another note: It may well be your own computer(s) that have caused this issue (although less common than an outright hack @ site) – please double check them.
i think it was my work pc that caused it because it come up fine. HOWEVER my other site http://www.meditatelove.com has been hacked 🙁 and it IS being directed elsewhere.
very sad.
but i’m told from my hosting that it is a google thing – how can that be?
back onto the original topic – header is still blurry ;(
but thank you for your efforts 🙂
I answered the blurry header question above – but your site containing hacked code is a much more serious problem.
Excuse my insistence, but at what point do we remove links known to contain malware and banish a user who keeps posting them here?
this sounds pretty harsh. i had a tech check out the site who claims nothing is wrong with it.
anyhow the header on this site is still blurry too.
http://www.meditatelove.com/
does anyone know how to make the header crisp?
Securi is very well regarded – I would not ignore their results – as Seacoast pointed out, you will have much bigger problems if you ignore malware on that site.
As for this one, the version of WP is outdated – http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/meditatelove.com/ and that is an invitation for getting hacked. I’d suggest you get that updated before doing anything else.
As for the header issue, again, see my post above.
i had a tech check out the site who claims nothing is wrong with it.
Did you show this to whoever made that claim?

Maybe the tech is the one who inserted the SEO Spam?

Ask a few experts…wait…you did!
Thank you WPyogi, can you tell me why i always need to update wp?
this site was only resurrected 6 months ago – the other 4 months ago.
WordPress CORE is always evolving – being improved and fixing bugs – some of which may be security issues. If you run outdated versions, you risk problems and your site may be more likely to be hacked. This is very basic if you want to have a self-hosted WP site – you have to MAINTAIN it.
Using outdated Core WP, outdated themes, or outdated plugins is asking for trouble.
Reasons: The site has never been properly cleaned, you did not change all passwords (db, host account, wordpress users) a backdoor exists, poor web host…malware on a computer used to login (and please don’t say it can’t be my Mac, that is a myth).
