There has been a recent splurge in iFrame attacks on word press blogs across the globe.  What these hackers are doing is getting into web servers thru vulnerability in older Word Press versions, and changing the index.pgp file in the Word Press blogs, to be a redirect to a site that contains malware.  There are also adding the iFrame to all index.html files in non Word Press blogs.

Now, this is only for those people that host their own Word Press Blogs.  If you site is still working, you need to quickly get it updated.  Just log into the admin panel of your Word Press blog and update to the latest 2.8.6 version of Word Press.

Now, if your blog has been attacked, it can be quickly fixed.  You just need to upload the Index.php file (this is identical for all Word Press blogs), then log in and update your blog.  If you don’t have this file, go to http://www.wordpress.org and download the entire version of Word Press 2.8.6.  Now, if you are an advanced user, you can do the upgrade manually by following the instructions that come with the update.  For you novice users, just upload the index.php file that comes with the update the root directory of your blog, delete any index.html file you may see in your root directory, then log in, and update automatically.

You can also contact your hosting provider for any additional help.
