Apology for the dangerous malware problem in the blog
Posted Under: General
I’m sorry that this WordPress blog was infected by the Cechirecom base64 hack/virus few days ago.The visitors from google were redirected to a blank page at http://www2.burnvirusnow34.xorg.pl where it told that they were infected and need to install the antivirus program they provide on that page.I didn’t realise that until someone kind-hearted reminded me because I always visit the site directly through url and I’m also not good at hosting.
I checked on my blog and found that all php files were changed and added with eval base64_decode. I read following pages talk about how to remove the Cechirecom base64 hack/virus and did remove them away:

I hope the virus won’t affect again and you guys could leave me messages or email me if there’s something abnormal.
Thanks!

I never noticed. I use the feed so this did not affect me. I hope that everyone is smart enough to know not to install an “antivirus” from an untrusted source.
PS: I think that the “antivirus” was likely for Windows.

Thank’s for cleaning this stuff out. Sometimes I read your blog from my wife’s notebook with Win7 and that script in the footer scared me couple-a-times.
