Nominally this site was hacked

The hack to the best of my understanding is not targeted, it’s “going around”. The hack inserts a line of code at the end of the database to redirect a visitor to a third-party site. Since my host pretty much knows about the redirections, they blocks it, at least this was the case for me. But still the main page would resolve to an error. I hardly noticed it on my end, it would only redirect occasional requests. The malicious instruction is now removed. It’s harmless to a computer. But if you still see something unusual, an error message, please let me know.
