I shut off access to the site, changed passwords and gutted the entire spot (and that&#8217;s why the background patterns are currently missing). I have some security-related things to look into before uploading the entire site over again and making a fresh install of WordPress (I have back-ups of the posts, comments, etc.). I have no idea how long this is going to take. I have no idea how it got in, so I have no idea what security things to fix. That means I just have to look into a bunch of possible things before getting the site up and running again. Please take some time to run a virus scanner on your computer if you&#8217;ve been there recently. Nothing serious came up in any of my recent scans that I have scheduled for multiple times a week, but it&#8217;s better to be safe. I apologize any inconvenience this has caused anyone.<\/p>\n<p>This is a giant pain in the butt that will slow down EVERYTHING that I&#8217;m working on right now. Luckily, none of the other sites (including this one) seem to be affected, so that will give me a bit of elbow room to get those places protected, too. A few things have been removed from the site, but all the content is intact.<\/p>\n<p>Consider bookmarking or following the <a href=\"http:\/\/scrollboss.tumblr.com\/\">ScrollBoss Tumblr<\/a> to see the &#8220;heads-up&#8221; alert when the site is ready again. I&#8217;ll post some things to make up for the fact that there isn&#8217;t a site right now. Sorry again for the inconvenience and thank you for your time.<\/p>\n<p>BTW, just in case you didn&#8217;t see this in any of the other places where I post:<br \/>\n<center><object width=\"400\" height=\"233\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/IE4O9moRMoI?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><embed src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/IE4O9moRMoI?version=3&amp;hl=en_US\" type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"400\" height=\"233\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apparently something hacked the ScrollBoss site and started injecting some BS spam-related linking code into pages of the site.
