    Malicious base64 encoded code somehow being added to plugins

    Hi,

    I've recently discovered that some malicious base64 code has been added to some of the plugins on my site. Does anyone know how this can happen when I am the only Administrator and how it can be prevented from happening again?

    Thanks
