My Websites Were Hacked

Things are going to be a tad wonky around my sites for a bit. I discovered that all my blogs had been hacked in some way. Don’t worry, you were never in danger- the hack was a code injection. Somebody spewed nasty links (hidden and encrypted) throughout my files, so all my blogs were transmitting “linky juice” to these sites. Needless to say I was appalled. I think the culprit was an evil plugin from an “advertiser” and a possible vulnerability with my blog theme. I’ll have MUCH more on that later.

So I’ll be quite preoccupied with rebuilding my sites. Everything is clean, but I am a bit obsessive and have decided to wipe everything out and start with new, clean installations. I’ll restore the old posts and comments and the like, but it’ll all be running on a totally clean new server and a clean new WordPress installation.

The websites will be down for a few hours when I finally make the final transition (probably later this week). I apologize for the inconvenience. I’d appreciate your prayers, it’s been a trying time. Thanks.
