My RSS feed contains spam – Help!

  • So i noticed on iTunes this morning that it was reporting that my RSS link wasn’t valid. After some troubleshooting using feedburner and feedvalidator I found a ton of spam at the end of my RSS feed. The feed is https://www.tficast.com/feed and the very last line contains this:
    </RSS>
    <dd4><font style=”position: absolute;overflow: hidden;height: 0;width: 0″>…[20 pages of garbage removed]…</body></html><dd5>

    Any idea where that is stored, how I can get access to it, how i can get rid of it and how I can prevent it from happening?

    Thanks!!

    I found the problem.

    In my index.php somehow 36k of links and other gobbeldy gook was appended. Obviously i was pwnd. The question I have is how? Is the only access to that file through my provider? Or is there a wordpress injection of some kind?

    You are going to want to secure up your wordpress installation. There are a lot of resources on how to do that. Also make sure you are running the newest version of wordpress, 2.6.2
