Default Website Down

My installation of WordPress has been compromised (hacked) and will be offline until I am able to secure the site. I apologize for any inconvenience and will post here when I am able to get it up and running again.

Thanks,
Steve

OMG, Steve, I am so sorry... Is this a software you use for your online catalog?
What a bad timing...

I hope the problem gets resolved soon. All the best to you my dear friend and colleague!

Friends,

Thank you for the support! My site is back online and hopefully the vulnerabilities have been corrected. WordPress installs require more attention and time spent on security issues than I prefer.
Cheers,
Steve

Thanks, Scott. I have the IP address and will report it to the host, but chances are good that they were also hacked and just being used.
