 * Help?
 * My WordPress site has been hacked. I’ve freshly installed Windows since before
   making any changes so that this doesn’t happen again, but I have stuff in my 
   source code I now want to get rid of.

 * I cannot for the life of me understand PHP and can’t find where this code would
   be to delete it. Any help much appreciated!
