Thanks John for helpful tip on finding “Google Keyword Tool.” It’s like a candy store.
I did not know you could use a phrase as a “keyword.” You always have good things to help me optimize our blogs. Awesome. -Debbie

Right.

Brad, also I just posted an article about running your blog’s admin area through SSL. You might want to check that one out.

Funny enough, I tried installing WP Exploit Scanner and it gave a PHP Error when I went to view the results.

I’m now using FTPS to ensure that nobody sniffed my password out of the internet.

Oh well.. Live and learn right?

Hey Brad. That really sucks that someone would do such a thing, but they’re out there. Glad you had a working backup. Make sure to change all your passwords (for your database, too) and maybe use the WP Exploit Scanner plugin to search your WP install for remaining hack code.

If you use FTP to access your site, check to see if your hosting company allows for FTP connections through FTPS or SFTP. If they do, use one of those methods to connect via FTP as they are much more secure. I’ll be writing up a post on it real soon.

I’m glad I got the problem my blog had fixed soon enough.. Someone had gotten into my site and deleted the entire WP-CONTENT folder off of my domain.

That one tool alone will be very useful to have in the future, incase the problem comes back :S
