facing comment spam thou i have removed the commenting function from my blog, but still some how the comment files are created in my webserves root folder.... and as soon as i turn on the comment facility, all the comments are visible. i think there is some bug in the engine which allows a hecker to directly write a comment for any topic. needed help!

Did you change your password for your webserver? Probably the hacker got hold of it and changes directly content on the server.

I change mine regularly after also been hacked .....

yes, i change the webserver password regularly....

the problem is, thou i have disable the comment in blog, the files as ceen in the pic are created, which should be created only when i allow the comment in blog.

so i think some how, teh hecker has compromised teh website x5 php engine and generates the files directly, without checkin whether the comment is enabled or not...

i have 2 delete around 800 comments every 2 days,,,, had 2 disable commentas in my blog cause of this....

need help..
