In reply to: Does v4.7.4 Have A Virus? Customizer turns on radio broadcast[UPDATE] I have now ran a full scan of my computer with Malwarebytes as suggested by @sinip and there were no malicious threats found. There were some PUPs in the registry, so I Quarantined all of them. I restarted my computer, re-installed the WordPress Twenty Seventeen theme, activated the theme and it still happens. So now I’m wondering if maybe my web host’s server has been infected with a virus.
It would be interesting to know what radio station it is.
?? If anyone knows a way for me to tell where the audio stream is injected into the web page (e.g. view page source, inspect elements, etc) please let me know.

In reply to: Does v4.7.4 Have A Virus? Customizer turns on radio broadcastHi,
It’s always possible that a computer has a virus, I’ll give it a sweep. The problem occurs not just on the live website, but also inside the wp-admin customizer, which seems very strange, but maybe the customizer pulls from the live site for the dynamic preview in the right side of window.It still seems strange that it only happens with wordpress default themes.

In reply to: Does v4.7.4 Have A Virus? Customizer turns on radio broadcast[UPDATE] I have now tested several themes. I tested many themes that are not the wordpress default themes and none of them have this problem. ALL of the default wordpress themes I tested have this problem: Twenty Seventeen, Twenty Sixteen, Twenty Fifteen.
I even tried deleting all of the default wordpress themes and and reinstalling the Twenty Seventeen theme, but the weird hack is still a problem.

In reply to: Does v4.7.4 Have A Virus? Customizer turns on radio broadcastBy the way, I HAVE tried deactivating all of the plugins and it didn’t make a difference.
I have also run a security scan with Wordfence that includes scanning plugins and themes and it didn’t find any issues.
Finally, I checked the Security section in my Google Search Console and it said there were no security issues.
EVEN WORSE — Now I’ve noticed that when I go to the website, the same radio station is playing. It’s no longer a spiritual program on air, now they’re talking about current news items.

Thanks. Your suggestion worked perfectly and was quite quick and easy.
