“Reported Attack Site!”

October 24, 2009

So you try to view some of the pictures and you’re greeting with a big, scary message telling you this site has been hacked. If you’re using Firefox, it probably looks something like this:

I’m aware of this problem. I wrote to my web hosting company to ask what I could do. They suggested that I update all of my WordPress software and plugins. I have since done that.. I found one active plugin that I didn’t activate. I deactivated it. They also suggested that I go through every file and folder on the site to look for bad script files that I didn’t put there or code that may have been injected into my files. I did that. I found nothing.

I think it’s now safe for you to click on the “Ignore this warning” (or similar) link to continue on to the pictures. The warning should be removed the next time Google tests my domain, whenever that may be.

Thanks and sorry.
