 * Hi all,
 * I have this problem where a particular user is generating lots of random posts.
   The user has admin privileges. So I delete the posts and the user but then the
   next day the user reappears and new categories for posts are created as well 
   as a raft of new posts – some of these categories appear to be in russian and
   others are random words.
    Has this happened to anyone else? Obviously my site
   has been hacked, even though the malware scans I run pick up nothing, but if 
   anyone else has seen this and can offer advice that would be much appreciated.

 * It seems like your site got hacked or under attacked. Try delete that user again
   and update “your admin” user’s password to a very strong one.
