Hello,

I worked on a website for about 10 months and now it has been hacked.
Please see the link: http://www.mwlimited.com
I have no backup copy as I lost my laptop recently.
Please help me, with step by step instructions.

I would first get BulletProof Security (plugin) running to lock the doors, then Wordfence Security can scan all WordPress files at your site and tell you which ones do not match their originals. After that, I have heard there are scanners that can locate other intrusions, but I have no experience with any of those since I have never had to use one.

10 months of work being hacked is a hard-won lesson, but now you know.
