So… I Got Spammed Again…
… or maybe I just never actually fixed the problem in the first place.
I was working with my host to fix the problem with these spam links, and they said it would be fixed if I removed the Global Translator. So I did that. And then I had to manually remove the links from the posts, so I did a little bit of that. Then I got really busy in my life and I didn’t actually look at my blog for a while. Then I looked at my blog and found spam links again. They appeared in all of the posts I had taken them out of, and in all of my newer posts, as well.
So then my host company told me that the problem was with two themes I wasn’t using but had installed. So I deleted those and they told me the problem was fixed.
I’m not sure the problem is fixed, and I’m not sure how much more of this I can deal with. And I’m certainly not sure if I can find the time EVER to manually delete all the spam links in the posts. So I’m really not sure what to do from here.
So, if more spam links show up in this post (this really is a test to see if it will happen), I may just give up and port my stuff over to another blog and work from there. My writing is taking a new direction, anyway. If no spam links show up and I really have fixed the problem, then I’ll probably try to clean up this blog and devote myself to blogging once again now that my extracurricular drama thing is over.
Just so you all know. 🙂
