It's more or less impossible for anyone else to look into if you don't provide links.

I did a print screen  and I can not upload it to the forum, at one time I thought we could do that

don't post a link.  it's the red hat hacker team.  they've hit hundreds of sites with poor security.  in addition, suggest: get rid of all sigfiles here going to sites hacked by them.  also suggest modifying sigfile img guidelines to eliminate flash.

I was shocked! I would have never in a million years think that someone from here would be that low -- I am so sorry to think that -- but hey -- the problem is fixed form the site.

 

Miss Nancy -- I am not sure what you mean in what to get rid of or even how to do it

Can you please provide the exact title or direct link to the freestuff item so we can research?

What I have on the print page is http://3dfineries.com/ -- The person here was unaware that his site had been hacked and had removed the banner from his site already.

you don't need to do anything, ladyp.  those guys hack into blogs due to lousy security protocols.  I can supply a screenshot of the infected page prior to its restoration if desired.  I have no website/blog/et al. for them to hack into, hence am not concerned.
