I suspect you are correct. It was done by my hosting provider, and I’ve seen where a few other folks have had similar problems in that situations with this update.

Deleted the folder, reinstalled a second time and it worked. Not sure why it didn’t work the first time I did that, but all is good now. Weird.

Would you or anyone be willing to take a look at all of this for me? I really dont quite feel qualified to do that nor do I want to make the time investment to do so. If someone would be willing to take a look the files and database, I would definitely pay for the time spent doing so.

I’ve deleted calls to the wp_footer and wp_header file and this removed the link spam from the code on my homepage. I’ve also changed all of my passwords and put the secret key information in place in the wp-config file. Should this be enough to ensure that the site is clean and no longer compromised?
