Compromised.

This website been compromised.

I received an email earlier today from google saying ‘some of your pages can cause users to be infected with malicious software‘ With the url being where my wordpress blog is. After removed over 400 spam comments manually I decided to deleted all database and had a clean installation of WordPress 3.  Now everything looks just fine, no more malware warning from both Safari and Chrome. (hopefully)

I’ll try to restore my previous data as much as I could in the next coming days. Sorry for the inconvenience and I really wish I could get back to you very soon.

    Hi Yichi. I discovered your amazing infinity theme for wordpress a couple of days ago and wanted to ask you if it would be alright with you if I use infinity’s background pic for a wordpress blog without using the rest of the theme (the credit on the pic will stay where it is now, of course). I want to use just the pic with a different theme because I’m a musician and I need a theme that offers the ability to add widgets, music etc. Please contact the e-mail I left and either way, you’re amazingly talented so I’m glad I found your page here to tell you that. Have a good day!

    Hi there,

    I discovered your flat panel icons on Smashingmagazine, and after the link brought me to the site … there is nothing, where else can I get your icons?
