Hey Steve, it was on April, 6 as said in the article. I think this hack is spreading all over the place and will haunt wenmasters for some time so being hit 10 days later was no wonder.

Was that on the 16th April by any chance? I had the exact same thing with one of my sites overnight on the 15th/16th April. One of our competitors also had it at the same time. Seems there is a lot of it going on right now

JS: Glad to hear that you’re OK. I assume that you use Linux or Mac OS. Otherwise tell me which antivirus software you use. It must be a good one.

Glad you gave me a hint! I was here two weeks ago and I’m happy to say I wasn’t affected.

Hey tad. Yeah I’m all good. A friend from work was able to help me clean it out with little fuss. So no problems now.

Aha!I was wondering where on earth that came from. I couldn’t understand how both my work and personal laptops had been infected when my browsing habits were safe/normal. At least I know now because it was really bugging me, and my fiance was getting suspicious of what I’d been doing when she wasn’t round… :)
