   about.
    Can anyone help me to see what’s inside? Can i delete it?
 * Thanks

   preg_match(‘/^https?:\/\/(?:www\.)?’ . $this->myHost . ‘(?:$|\/)/i’, $_SERVER[‘
   HTTP_REFERER’]))){
    // base64 encoded red image that says ‘no hotlinkers’ //

 * What is the name of the theme & where did you download it from?
    What file is
   that code in?
 * It looks like it *should be* a base64 encoded image rather than text.

 * I bought it from fiverr, the guy is a reseller, or he says so.
 * It’s called Portio.
 * So you are saying that should do be anything dangerous? I heard that base64 encrypted
   codes are dangerous, what do you think?
 * thanks

 * the only WordPress theme called portio that I can find is one listed on themeforest
   for $37. If that’s the same one and the person you bought it from really is a
   reseller, you should be able to get support from the original author. If not 
   and you still want to use the theme, you should buy a copy from the original 
   source and ask the theme author about the base64 stuff.
