  What makes you say that?

  Go to your email program and change the password to a very difficult one because that’s how many hackers gain access to blogs.

  Then read this please and act on what you find there > http://en.support.wordpress.com/security/

  1. If you can log-in go here > Users > All Users and delete any user that does not belong there.

  2. Disable post by email > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-email/

  3. Disable post by voice > http://en.support.wordpress.com/post-by-voice/

  4. Change your blog password to a very difficult one > http://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/#change-your-password

  5. Use a secure, encrypted connection to connect to your Dashboard. Under Users → Personal Settings, check the box that says “Always use HTTPS when visiting administration pages, and click Save Changes.

  I see no indication on our end that the blog has been hacked.

  Please provide further details on why you believe your site was hacked so I can assist you further.
