6 New Tips To Secure Your Wordpress Blog

Last week, I found out that this site has been hacked. I don’t know how the hacker inserted the virus but my hosting provider told me how the attack took place. Here’s what they told me:

3. Using the username/password, the virus then downloads the index files, adds the iframe code in it and re-uploads it to the web server.
Which made me think… The attack may have happened when I turned …

Before the G.I. Joe movie began, there was this preview of a movie to be expected on 2010.

Here is a snapshot of the email Google sent me:

 
The email clearly indicates “Dear …
