Yes I was Hacked. Sorry to those who visited the site today.

Today I was hacked…. Still getting things back together. It’s taken all day and a lot of frustration.
So if you came to the site and got redirected to some crappy site that started telling you you were infected with some virus… Well you weren’t.
That’s just a crappy technique those people use to scare people into buying there product.
BTW thanks a lot you jerk, whoever you are. You cost me a lot and scared my readers for your crappy scam to make money. I hope you know there is a special place in hell reserved just for people like you.
We are not friends.
Hey, I’ve got a webcomic (Dreamkeepers Prelude) that is currently having the exact same issue you’re describing – how did you fix it? I’m more artist and less programmer, so I’m not sure what to do. Please shoot me an e-mail when you have the chance, I don’t want my readers getting spammed for any longer than absolutely necessary. Thank you for the help! 8 )

If your having the same problem as I did then it’s your wordpress installation. They were able to inject some mallicious code into the php files. Only way to fix it is to get rid of the bad php files and do a fresh clean install of WordPress. Make sure your Database is backed up first though.
Contact your host and they should talk you through it.
Before you do anything else though. Disable your site so these “people” aren’t getting anymore of your traffic and your readers aren’t getting hosed. I should have done that right away and I’m still angry about that.
