My website was hijacked - something to look out for
Posted: Tue Apr 25, 2006 11:11 am
Here is something I did not know could happen, and I don't know what it is called, but it feels like someone hijacked one of my websites.
I noticed a few weeks ago that my homepage was all in lower case, and made a mental note to fix it. That certainly wasn't how I designed it. Today when I opened it up in Dreamweaver I saw at the bottom of the page that these links had been added, but in such a way that they don't display, but a search engine spider can certainly see them:
The problem with this is that the search engines will probably penalise a site that links to such bad neighbourhoods.
This is something to look out for. Presumably they got access to my FTP details. Does anyone know more about this?
