 * I received an email from my hosting company that it appears that I was victim
   of a blind sql injection attack through a vulnerability in Yeost SEO. Can the
   database be fixed and secured, or do I have to blow up the site? This is the 
   email I received:
 * **I believe your dabase itself is compromised because you were running an outdated
   version of this seo plugin which is vulnerable to sql injection. Because your
   database itself can no longer be trusted and they hackers have been using your
   seo plugin to manipulatet the google crawlers, I strongly recommend doing a completely
   fresh install of wordpress with a new database. If you are a wordpress expert
   there is the chance you could secure the database, but it is very difficult to
   recover from a SQL injection attack and there is the strong possibility that 
   the hacker would have back door access through the database itself even after
   an upgrage/reinstall with the existing database. The following files are malicious:**
