I have changed my passwords, and password protected my wordpress admin directory

I have also found out that the hack is only showing when i click on the link that takes you to the blog part of my site

OK so I have solved my hack problem...

for anyone else with a wordpress, if you get or have gotten hacked, he changed code in the index.php file for my theme.

So I uninstalled the theme and reinstalled it, now im back up and running.

I have added a dir password to my wp-admin dir and changed all passwords to my cpanel and wordpress
