I am nto sure when or how, but someone has been able to get my admin passowrd for my main site, and replace their adsense code for mine.

I am in australia, just happened to be online at 5 in the monring and spotted it. Person could ahve been putting it up and down every night, as my nighlty traffic has been dismal for months.

OK, so i've emailed google the ID of the publisher, changed passwords and beefed up security. IP address of person who did it is from a proxy, so no easy way to trace them.

Anyeone else had someone do this?

What resulted with google?

They may not actually have your admin password rather hacked your site by uploading a kiddy script or other.

Research your log files for all related activity from the ip addresses. They may have a uploaded ftp program which they used to download, change and upload your html files.

Additionally, I would ontact AdSense and report the ID in question.
