My domain name is being attacked

    Every now and then I do a search as any blogger does for their domain name. I searched jessicadoyle.ca in google.

    Last fall I was attacked by a hacker and lost complete control of my site/blog for close to one week. I moved to WordPress.com shortly after.

    Now I’ve come to realize my domain name is still being attacked from the information in this link:
    zone-h.org/component/option,com_mirrorwrp/Itemid,160/id,6456063/

    If you click on “attacker stats” in red located on the upper right I’ve been attacked as recently as April 24, 2008 and have had over 3000 attacks in less than a year.

    Is this site spam or is it true. Should i be worried about these attacks? If it is true could someone help me in identifying what it is I need to do to at least curb the attacks or even better annihilate them.

    Please.

    Thanks so much :)

    Those ‘attacker stats’ don’t seem to refer to your domain – I think they refer to hacked blogs at your previous hosting company.

    Have you noticed anything wrong with your blog? If not, ignore that page – there’s no reason to believe it is correct.

    As always we recommend using a unique random password for your WordPress.com account:

    Staying secure
