 * I have a website that’s been hacked. The homepage works, but all of the links
   direct to vipmedstock.com. Not sure what’s gone on here, or how to even begin
   fixing it.
 * I’ve changed my FTP password, and am downloading all the files now to do a scan.
 * Has anyone else encountered this issue?
