Freak malware warning

Got a malware warning today, as I loaded my own page. Not sure how that happened, but since the warning I’ve:

  • Changed my FTP password
  • Changed my web host backend password
  • Deleted the old blog installation and re-built it in the timeframe of…15 minutes (This is new, despite the same look)
  • Dumped the database
  • Imported only the raw text from the old blog (Some posts which contain images are now bereft of those images).

Hopefully this got rid of any potential malware. I had previously removed some nasty redirects (also not sure how those got there), maybe this is fallout from that.
