Not as in my idea... just that this is what worked for me.

I woke up to a hacked site this morning, as it seems many others did.I was hacked by a Syrian Regime group/supporters.

I followed the links that I had seen Lynn post to others that had been hacked and for me, the solution was almost the last on the list after trying everything else. I'm not trying to take the credit for it, I'm definitely not that clever but it was so simple a solution, that I thought I would add it here to try first.

The link as posted by Lynn is:

The solution for me was number 7 'Final Clean ups: Check your Announcements, AdminCP > Announcements > Announcement Manager, make sure everything here looks correct.

When I checked, there a message from the hackers saying who they were and why they had hacked me. I deleted that and everything was back to normal. In saying that, I'm still following the rest of the advice to (try to) prevent it happening again.

Good luck to those who have been hacked and I hope the solution is as easy as mine was..... even if I had spent all day trying everything else!!!
