I have checked hardening your wordpress posts and have tried edit the .htaccess file but if there is specific actions to take I would like to know . I have even changed the chmod but still info was injected


thanks

Check permissions
Check the plugins you're using
Most hacks are due to something not being "right" ie. bad permissions or some other vulnerability via an out of date plugin or theme

cab i jsut remove the write permission once the plugin is installed i try to use as little plugins as possible and try to achieve as much as I can without them

It probably isn't the plugin but the permissions that are setup on the WordPress site in the first place. You may have inherited the site and at some stage the permissions may have been screwed up.

Quote unusual to see a post have content in them unless your database has been compromised. Are you sure that these are in the post and not in some widget / footer somewhere ?
