  About a month ago I got hacked and found out because Google took me out of their index. Google contacted me and informed me that they could see that a third party had uploaded spam links into by blog.

  I went in and deleted the links (viagra and cialis) and Google put me back in indexing.

  I now have to check my blog 2 – 3 times per day because new spam ads are somehow appearing. I have the most updated version of WordPress and I change my password almost every day.

  Any advice?

  My first advice is to read the stickies at the top of this forum before posting:

  My second advice is to post your question in the forum where it belongs:
