 * I have had a recent hacking on my VPS server. I am trying to make sure all my
   files are correct before I go back online. I have been looking at my .htaccess
   files.
 * Should my .htaccess files look like this? I am a but concerned about the line
   of code at the top this one below before #BEGIN wordpress
 * suPHP_ConfigPath /home/admin/public_html
 * # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule
   ^index\.php$ – [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}!-
   d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule>
 * # END WordPress
 * Also can anybody tell me what the list of files should be that should be in my
   Akismet plugin? Unsure if there are some files there that should not be in it.
 * thanks for any help

 * You can always download Akismet to your local PC and compare the files there 
   to the ones in your site.
 * Try asking your hosting service support about the .htaccess file.
