Something has been hacked into my Britzinoz site, and is now a security risk according to Google.

I've spent all day trying to work out what is happening. Nothing is going right for me just now, and they say things come in three's. Well, I am on my third lot of three things going wrong this month !

I just aint happy !!

I had the same thing happen with my Pom in Oz site.... not very nice and TBH I couldn't face building it all back up again after such a lot of hard work and thought had gone into it. Unfortunately I had no back up.....

But onwards and upwards. It is a Wordpress site? If so, you should change the login from the standard admin one (sorry, assuming this may be the case and not wanting to teach my grandmother to suck eggs as they say!)

Chin up :)

It is an e107 site. All my Wordpress ones are OK.

I have actually been looking at switching that one over to Wordpress, and had already begun this, as e107 has had some security issues recently. I did upgrade it last week, just before it went under !!! :confused: They said the upgrade was to address a security issue... hmm

I am trying to divert all viewers to an alternative site, with varying results.

I've noticed some odd things happening during this trying time though, with the different browsers.

Chrome shows a big red warning screen, then goes to www.britzinoz.com, when I say ignore warning
Internet Explorer now diverts correctly to http://www.abcdiamond.com/australia. Something I set up to bypass the problems
Mozilla Firefox Shows a Red Warning, then correctly diverts to http://www.abcdiamond.com/australia

3 Different browsers, 3 different results... :dunno:

However a few security checks show my site as being clean now, after I removed some Google adverts that had become corrupted ?

I will try another approach tomorrow.

I am rebuilding from scratch. I couldn't work out what the problem was, but I have a clean bill of health again.

It gives me chance to update it all :lol:

That's true, are you going to rebuild it on WordPress?

Yes. Wordpress seems to be pretty stable, but I need to choose a theme that I like.

Tempted to write one myself though.... :blink: :member:
