    Hi,

    Wy website has been running on WordPress and has been under attack for the past 2 months. Robots trying to find password for some users registered to my site.
    Today, I recieved a notification saying my Admin password was “ost and changed” – which isn’t true. Obvioulsy someone managed to get in and changed my login. Now it’s impossible for me to get back in since this was my admin user name… Does someone has a good advice? It’s terrible.

    Thank you in advance
    Yann

    The site you are asking about does not seem to be hosted on WordPress.COM so you need to make friends over at WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using.

    This site is for support of sites hosted on WordPress.COM. You should address your questions to WordPress.ORG the keepers of the software you are using: http://wordpress.org/support/

    The forum at WordPress.ORG is not connected to WordPress.COM so you will need to open an account at .ORG if you do not already have one. You may use the same email at WordPress.ORG as you do at WordPress.COM.

    If you are asking for help with a WordPress.COM site then we need a link to that site to give you accurate help.
