WordPress Blog Reseted to Default Over Night

Now the strangest thing happend to my WordPress blog:

Last night I wrote the last article on my blog. This morning it was gone.... not only my article from yestyerday was gone but - EVERYTHING! - The only thing reminding on my blog was the template settings of the sidebar. All posts where gone, all pages where gone, all categories went the same way... wherever that might be. Instead i have the default post and comment and my blog screems "Hello World". All plugins are also there and still activated just as i left it bhind yesterday.

How is that possible? Anybody else here having such a strange experience? I'm frustrated to the bone!
The Mysql database shows only those two posts.
Permissions are set correctly, nothing is open.
I updated WordPress to the new version last week and everything worked fine.

It's not that i don't have any backup, but putting it all back together and than it happens again dosen't make sense, so i'd like to find out what I'm shooting at first.

Help and ideas are highly appriciated.
Thanks, George

I guess your provider has restored a backup

Failed on that badly. I'm restoring it manually now.... bah. They where as flattend as myself when i told them. Suggestion was to change my password How someone cracked my 14 digit password, with numbers and all kinds of things in it, is quite unclear to me. Antway, Go back to start again, don't cash 200 dollars in.... sounds familiar?

I don't think that someone has hacked your new WP blog,  maybe the hoster is lying or doesn't know what someone from the company has done

Or the WordPress blog has a bug or a hidden doorway. I just found a threat on WordPress.org
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/122532?replies=7#post-673639
where some other people had similar expeiences. But somehow nobody seems to have found a solution yet. I'll keep you posted if i find out something significant.

look there are so much WP users and this thread looks not like a bug, maybe one of your plugins creates this problem?

If you want to be sure you can remove the install script from your server. If I read your posst at WP it seems to be a restored backup...

Since I installed WP through Fantastico (lazy me) I take it for granted that the install script must have been removed automatically after installing WP. There is nowhere an install script to be found. -  Or does it have such an unrecognizable name that I just can't find it?

And wouldn't after a re-installation the plug-ins at least be deactivated? They where all still active. The only thing that worked properly.

There are 15 tables in the database. only the categories, the posts, the comments and the pages have been changed. Even the affiliate pro click counter was still there with all click counts. The same for the theme and all layout changes. css and html.

Now that I have at least restored some posts, I wonder how my site looks tomorrow......... Backup... Backup ....

maybe you should start with a fresh install using the latest wp version, and maybe wait with the plugins...

My first weblog is almost 3 years old and never had this problems, maybe the host has some security issue?

Olaf, Thanks for looking into it. Can i give you a little hint in return towards your otherwise very nice blog. The article about fishkin results in Google ads above the text, selling fish, and more fish. If you want your ads to be relevant to the content and therefore get clicked on more often, use the following tags at the start and at the end of your text.

<!--google_ad_section_start-->your ad relevant text goes here.<!--google_ad_section_end-->.

Hope that's not too balled. The code is perfectly legal and comes out of the webmaster toolbox. Somewhere deep below though. Check it out and all that stinky fish should be gone in a minute.... "Op de adere kant so en lekkere heering...is dog heel erg smaakelik"

which article?
