Your web host can usually determine by looking in your log files how the hacker gained access. Sometimes, they gain shell access thru someone else’s account, not necessarily yours. Have you contacted them? They’d want to know of any security breaches naturally.
What version of WordPress are you running?
What is your WordPress login name – admin?
hacked again, and this is your first post here. hmm…I can only wonder why it’s your first.
Well because I thought it would be a one of, so I just reinstalled WordPress. I uploaded the files for 2.3.2 but I’m not sure if it updated correctly. I just reinstalled and imported by databases and it seems that they used that as when I imported, the hacking message was back again. I was using a custom username.

Do a search in this blog and in Google on ‘WordPress security’ or ‘how to secure WordPress’.

If you did it would show 2.3.2 as the version number. Does it?
