 * hi! I have big problem with this error in my wordpress.
    What’s more i have a
   lot of ads in index.php code and i have no doubt that my site could be hacked.
   Links are of curse invisible but just check index.php code and you see them. 
   When i post news or delete comment i have this error:
 * >  Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output
   > started at /home/ultmado/public_html/wp/**wp-config.php:79**) in /home/ultmado/
   > public_html/wp/wp-includes/**pluggable.php on line 865**
 * Please help me if you know how to fix it : (

 * If there’s loads of ads in your code, I agree – it’s highly likely that you’ve
   been hacked.
 * How? Have you been running an old version of WordPress? If so, or you’ve been
   slow upgrading in the past (and have only just noticed something amiss), then
   follow some of the links provided at the bottom of this page:

 * Also, look for signs of extra people with admin access. WordPress might report(
   2) admins, yet only show one… if so, something is amiss.
 * If you’re red hot at upgrading and you think it’s not because of that, you’ll
   still need to follow the clean-up link above, but you should also look for other
   insecure scripts on your webspace, anything suspicious, new files that should
   be there, look at your server logs and look for any other possible point of entry
   that you’ll need to close to prevent the same thing re-occuring. It could also
   be that you’re host is just rubbish.
 * Don’t forget to backup everything, right now, too. At least if you screw something
   up, you can at least get back to this point. Just be aware that the backup is
   tainted.
 * Best of luck.

 * if you have stuff inserted into index.php, you probably have stuff hidden on 
   your other php files too.

 * That link may help. Good chance you’ll need a fresh install, including theme 
   and plugins…..and you’ll have to take all the other steps necessary to ensure
   you’ve closed all the doors

 * The first thing to do is fix your “hacked” site, if it has been hacked:

 * I tried find this spam code in files but finally i decided to delete everything(
   yes, everything) and upload new wp version. now it works
    and spam links disappeared.
   thank you for support!
