compromised, I don’t know how, but it was because I took it on my local server and when I tried to run the akismet.php it all loaded up !! *

bring out the cause which is very surprising for me, I just tried renaming each plugin’s folder individually and shockingly it comes out to be akismet !!! * Yes i’ve used the same API key everywhere, on my local system, and on my multiple websites, but I didn’t download the source, the plugin was just there when worpress was installed which obviously you know well. * Strange, maybe the hack requires akismet to compile itself, that’s a bad idea, I know. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Please can someone explain me

found what plugin contained the code, I just renamed the plugins folder and it went away, all of it !! * Thanks buddy, great help !! * I’ll just install each plugin again and this time I’l take care I only install standard plugins and not from free filehosting websites…probably that was the cause of it * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In

you please add something more to it, these are just some preventive measures that could have been taken while my site was breathing easy, but as of now I don’t think it’ll really help very much *
