My 2.1 site hacked… not 2.1.1
-
My 2.1 WordPress site was hacked on Saturday, and I still haven’t been able to fix it: http://www.chrismcgrath.com.
All my content is still there when I go to /wp-admin/, but nothing happens when I publish new posts. I just get this “praise allah” web site.
My non-wordpress content is still there (i.e. http://www.chrismcgrath.com/index_old.php?bosnia).
I’m using 2.1, not the 2.1.1 that had the security problem.
Any ideas? How should I go about fixing, and then removing the vulnerability? (My web space is with http://www.he.net.)

1. Delete index.php at site root. That will stop things for now.
2. Post to http://wordpress.org/support for more help.

You will also have to delete index.html at the site root as well as they have it there as well.
