Hi guys, just got hacked and got about 40 subscribers to my mail chimp account through my ezine registration in wordpress…. i installed a spammer but how can i take my host subscribers away without any damage… just tried to delete them… within the hour they came back ….
keith, I’ve tried following your instructions (below) in my mail chimp account but i cannot seem to find the plugin settings… I’m not such an active user… can you describe smaller steps… do i find them in my wp account or in my mail chimp account????
1) clear the cache (found on the cache page on the plugin settings.)
2) add the ip to the deny list.
It could be that a registration sneaked through. Since the registration was successful it puts the IP into the good cache and other users from that IP will be allowed in.
