    Thanks Esmi,

    Ok, I followed the instructions to manually disable the plugins. After making a plugins.hold folder thru FTP, I went into the administration dashboard, and under “Plugins” it said they were all disabled. Then I renamed the plugin file through FTP.

    Still did not solve the problem. Nothing’s changed.

    And your web guy is right – upgrading to the latest version is the best security against future hacks.

    Ironically in 2 1/2 years I never had one problem. A week after upgrading my spam triples and I get hacked.

    Oh, and I don’t think this is theme-compatibility related. Though I did just upgrade, I didn’t experince this problem until about a week later. I suggested to the guy that helps me with the back end that we do a downgrade. He’s not too excited about that idea. The reason we upgraded was supposed to be to defend us better from hacks.

    Thank you for the help.

    Already tried that per another Magic Include Shell solution I found, but any time I click to change a plugin, it takes me to the “Magic Include Shell 3.3.3” PHP-editor-looking screen. I tried changing them individually, as a bulk action, using a different browser, and nothing worked.

    Pretty much any time I get to the point of being able to change content on the site in any way, it takes me to the Magic Include Shell screen.
