If you are using Wordpress for your site, chance is you are using a good-looking theme for your site.

Do you know that these themes usually has a security hole that allow hackers to insert bad codes into your site?

Yes, even those theme that you downloaded from trusted theme design companies might be vunlerable.

Just scroll down for a 2-minutes DIY fix for this security issue, otherwise here's the story cut short: most of themes today uses a piece of code called TimThumb and there is a HUGE problem when the theme-maker uses an outdated version of TimThumb.. it allow hackers to insert codes to your site.


This free plugin will scan your website and check for outdated TimThumb file.
It will then update it, so bad codes cannot find their way to your site.

4. Install it and activate.
5. Go to Tools> TimThumb Scanner.
