Hi
This is quite urgent, please help.
Today, I go into BA, then edited an entry, then select Blog Now cause I want to post that entry I edited into one of the blog.
The selection screen come up for me to select a category, but the first line of the category is a string of script
I cannot copy and paste it for you to see.
Please advise where can I locate that file where BA store the categories of blogs. I think I should go there to delete that line right away.
This is not the first time I seen strange strings been added to my files in the server before, but so far never in BA or BO. They were added to WP files, AT3 toplist files, and some other index files. And usually I just delete them and chmod 444 if I can.
However, in BA I don't know where this string is ( I mean which file ).
Please advise.

well, yes, probably your WP has been hacked. it regularly happens since it is pretty much vulnerable. just yesterday i saw on the boards that new hack has been found for WP and lots of sites are being affected overnight.. go to their site and see how to secure your WP..
as about BA.. that string is probably inserted as category by the hackers in your WP and BA scanned the blog recently for new categories and picked up that. It keeps that in its database. Go with your phpmyadmin in the "bablogcats" table and browse through the results and delete any records containing weird strings..
