I got an email from a fellow Yakezie-er that my site was showing up as hacked by a pharma company. Could you guys check and see if it's normal for you? It looks normal to me.

If it's hacked, what do I do?
Thanks! :)

Honestly, I don't know if I have any security on it. I have a password, which I've changed. What kind of security should I have?

Penny, the pharma hacks won't show up when you go to your site directly. Do this -
Google "thesavedquarter" or the "thesaved quarter challenge" or any of your popular search engine ranking pages. If those pages still brings you to the relevant TSQ pages and the description in google is yours AND do a search for site:thesavedquarter.com to make sure all the pages you see are yours, if it is, then it is fine. Usually pharma hacks redirect the search engine visits to their pages. So you won't see by directly going to the pages.
IF you are indeed hacked, here is something that is helpful
http://themergency.com/diagnos…..arma-hack/
http://codex.wordpress.org/FAQ…..was_hacked
Or contact Jesse of Pffirewall. I can help fix it but won't be able to do get to it this weekend, pharma hacks are nasty as google doesn't like redirect and it will affect your SE traffic so you might want to act as soon as possible. Hopefully you are not hacked and all is fine…

Suba, it appears that I've been hacked. :(( I'll check out the links you shared to try to figure out how to remove it, and I'll e-mail Jesse. Thanks!

Ouch that looks messy. You'll definitely want to fix that all right away. You may also want to talk to your web host to see if they see any vulnerabilities that need to be sealed off. Sometimes you think you've removed a hack only for it to later show up again on its own.

It doesnt help now but in the future I use a service called Code Garage that checks your site every hour and looks for downtime and hacks… if it finds anything it lets you know and uses a backup to restore it.
It's saved my butt at least a few times!

I spent several hours on this yesterday but am no closer to having it resolved. I messaged Jesse but haven't heard back. Is there someone else that can give me a hand at getting this resolved? I'm too hectic to figure it out and am happy to pay for someone to fix it for me.

Did you get this fixed?
I also use Code Garage like Jeff at Before You Invest and I can't recommend them highly enough. It's one small thing that lets me sleep well at night.

I haven't gotten it fixed yet and would LOVE (and pay for) assistance! With a newborn, two older kids on spring break, and mother in law in the hospital, I just haven't had the hours to devote to figuring out how to resolve the mess. E-mail me at thesavedquarter @ gmail.com if you can help!!
Thanks. :)
