Also they could have gotten in though your computer itself, have you scanned it and seen if there was anything suspicious on the computer/laptop itself?

Yes, I checked for malware, etc. nothing. I will run it again tonight just to make sure. Thanks.

Let me ask something that may be relevant? About a week ago I put out some ads for a blogger/writer. These were sent to my host email address (once you signed into host site). A few of those that responded sent pdf files with writing history, etc. I opened these. Could this have infected the machine, and if so, would it be my machine or the hosts machine? Thanks. Funny though I have not found any virus or malware on my system...

OK, took care of everything, hopefully this solves it. Now, it seems I cannot get into the forums, I get a 404 error. Now what???
