I had a Wordpress installation but removed it a couple weeks ago when this all started.    I first suspected Wordpress was the problem as well.  I am not convinced CE4 is the issue but I am trying to verify everything.  Right now the only thing I have is the site for pictures.  I use the autoindex to index a gallery for each game.

I deleted all the bad php files.   They were not normal Turning Gate names so they were easy to find.    They were named things like code29.php,  XDYDF.php etc.   They have been in the root directory as well as the photos and lib directories. 

Right now everything seems clean but my site can be found at FMHockey.com

Thanks for the help,

Mike

It appears the php files that were put on my site were sending out 400 emails an hour.  The limit I was hitting was cpu usage I believe.    I have basically unlimited storage.

Has anyone experienced any security issues with CE4 Gallery?     I have used the Gallery module for years to display pictures for a local hockey team.   I have never had any issues.   

This year I have had my hosting account suspened for using too may resources.    I have tried to restrict access with .htaccess and php.ini files but almost every day I get rouge *.php files in my gallery that I have to clean up.   I do NOT use download.php but i believe I am up to date anyway.   I plan on regenerating my site this weekend just to be sure it is built with the latest files.

Any other ideas?

Thanks,
