Wordpress Hacked - Need Expert Advice on this one...
What I need advice on regarding the site hack is this:
From the hosting company I received this message:
Malicious files were uploaded into your account via the following script http://xxxx.com/mass.php
What is the mass.php file and is it possible to make this file secure next time around?
Also, are some hosting companies more secure than others? I know the hosting company I was using gets very bad reviews, but I took a gamble and tried them anyway.
I have copies of all my websites and it really isn't a big issue, as most of the sites were experimental sites that I was intending to take down right after my vacation. I deleted all the files on the hosting account, and have canceled the account, but I sure don't want this to happen with more serious sites in the future if I can help it. I do make Wordpress as secure as I can following some excellent instructions I have received from members of this forum, so I'm not sure what I overlooked?
