So did you go back to RC4 or did you upgrade in the end ? If still on RC4 then considering doing an upgrade at some point so that you are up to date with security fixes etc.

Oh, and did you change your admin and ftp passwords by the way ?

Nope, still running RC4, but I'll read more about the update process soon.

And yes, I did change my passwords, also checked my PC for malwares (found more than few). Now I'm gonna refresh the cache and ask my users for feedback, I hope everything is fixed.

I'll come back as soon as I get some responses. :D

MrPhil:
Remember to change your passwords after you've cleaned out any spyware... you don't want your new password sent to the hacker within seconds of your typing them in! Also enable your PC's firewall if you haven't done so already. That reduces the chances of your passwords being sent out without drawing your attention to the fact.
