Strange URLs being logged

Hi

I have noticed in our webmaster account with Google, and also simply by doing a link: search that the following pages are being tracked by Google, but they are not pages created by us.

The format follows: #*$!.website.com/trend%20.php?p=8766728

I cannot find any information regarding this - we did have an issue with what appeared to be someone hacking our wordpress installation as the web was littered with thousands of pages within our blog folder relating to viagra etc. We have since removed the blog installation for now to see if this resolves that issue, but the problem above doesnt appear to be related to the blog folder.

The urgency of this revolves around the fact that we had a page 1 ranking (and in some instances position 1) for some very competitive terms, but since last monday Google kicked us off and its hit us hard. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.

Hi

i am also encountering something strange with Google. In my webmaster account with Google there is a url which i never registered with them. Seems like someone has set up a url and pointed it to our website .....and then somehow go it included in google .....under our url....any ideas as to why someone would do this? Is it SPAM
