It sounds like the FVD downloader virus. I did a quick Google and found this instruction for its removal:

You may find others that are easier to follow.

Hi Craig,
Thank you for responding.
I did as you suggested. Silly me, didn't think about deleting the theme from my choices of themes. Worked like a charm.
I've been wondering how to create a child theme easily. I'll definitely watch your tutorial.
Thank you so much for your help. It is much appreciated.
Have a great day : )
Hi Craig,
Since re-installing my theme, I've been trying to figure out how to save a child theme to a ftp site. I understand how it works with cPanel Hosting, but how does it work in WA? Where is the theme directory folder? I wish there was a tutorial for this process for child themes within WA Hosting. Do I need to Host elsewhere to have a child theme?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Have a great day : )
Hi Bill,
Craig had the answer to my problem.
Thank you for replying to my plea.

You can in the word press editor and choose your post and in the upper left corner you have a tab to choose previous version. You can also do the same with pages. This would have any lost material you are looking for. Hope this helps.
Hi Rod,
Thank you for your reply.
I went to the stylesheet editor, but I don't see a tab anywhere that says previous version. It's not only the styling for one post, it's the entire website css style that is missing.
Have a great day : )

Like call forwarding for your phone, I would like to automatically send a new domain name to a main site if that is possible within WA. Does anyone know if that is possible wit
You can also redirect from the inside the menu where you bought the domain . just log in where you bought the domain name and look for forwarding/cloaking under that domain menu options
Hi Daryn,
I'm looking into that information right now. I'm thinking this may be a better redirect since it's coming directly from the domain name site.
Thank you for your suggestion.
Have a great day : )
Yes, redirects are the go. When someone types in link-to-site-a.com, the first line in the index.html file re-directs the site to ThisIsWhereYouShouldGo.com and the person doesn't even see the switch on their page. Pretty cool stuff eh?
Hi Geoff,
Yes, it will be cool beans if I can get this coding thing figured out. I appreciate your response.
Have a great day : )
Yes you can do redirects with any hosting see this site for more info http://www.rapidtables.com/web/dev/url-redirect.htm.
Hi Maksim,
Thank you for your reply. I have skimmed through the resource you have provided for me. I appreciate the information. It looks like I'll be doing some experimentation today.
Thanks again and have a great day : )

Can anyone let me know if WA allows .swf files on the server? I tried uploading to FTP and got a message stating permission denied and to contact hosting service for assistance
Hi Bill,
The issue is still up for discussion. I sent Kyle a PM to see what his take is on it, but haven't heard back yet.
Thanx for your reply.
Have a great day. : )
the issue here is the permission for the app/program to access WA servers. Tech installed some license fee keys for me which threw up the same issue- but if SWF needs to access the server on each occasion it won't work...besides HTML is better! Good share though...best wishes, Andy
Hi Andy... Thanx for your response.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say "on each occasion". The .swf file is an animation banner built in Adobe Flash. I've checked YouTube on this and it looks like it is possible to include a .swf file in Wordpress but you have to upload it through FTP.
I know that WA restricts some plug-ins and other things, which this may fit into that category. It's a file that I built a couple of years ago in Flash and I would like to use it on my site, but probably won't be able to. I have not learned HTML5 for animation so that's not a possibility for me.
I also transferred the file to both a .mp4 and .mov file but the animation runs terribly slow and is a 2.6 MB file compared to the .swf file, which is only 168 KB.
I will post this question to Kyle/Carson and see if there's a way to upload it. If not, I'll try a different route.
Thanx again. Have a great day : )
Hi Randy... Thanx for posting a reply. I'm thinking .swf files are probably not incouraged by WA. I know that .swf files are not supported on apple mobile devices. HTML5 is taking over where flash left off for mobile connections.
Have a great day : )
