 * Hey everyone, I have currently run into a problem and was notified by SiteLock
   that there is a current Redirect hack on my site “www.sigmachirutgers.com”. The
   site which is the “hack” or whatever is : [http://rpksft.compress.to/](http://rpksft.compress.to/).
   Does anyone have any advice on how to go about getting rid of this? SiteLock 
   is currently asking me for the ridiculous amount of $200 to fix it.
 * Thanks in advance.

 * Anything less will probably result in the hacker walking straight back into your
   site again.

 * By working through that list as I suggested. Your site has been hacked. There
   is no easy fix. You have a lot of work and a long slog ahead of you tracking 
   all of the hacks down and removing all backdoors.
