 * Hello. I’m trying to clean up after a site hack.
 * Am I correct in assuming that no files in the wp-includes folder on my (up to
   date) website should be different from the files in the latest WordPress download?
 * Can I just delete the online wp-includes and upload the fresh copy (and the wp-
   admin)?
 * Thank you.
