Blog Redirected to Hotlinkfiles

After a looong hybernation, this blog finally is 'alive', again :D
What made me vacuum posting to this blog is because it strangely has been directed to a website for a couple of days, Hotlinkfile - Hotlinkfiles and Bandwidth Theft. Some informations about Hotlinkfiles: HotlinkFiles on Aboutus. It's a kind of malware for short. I have just realized that there must've been an unknown link to redirect my blog to an ad like that. Okay, off to the topic, if you are experiencing the same problem, then just do what I did:

1. Go to your blog's Dashboard --> Design --> Edit HTML 
2. Hit ctrl+f (Find) and then type 'hotlinkfiles'
3. You'll find a script pretty much like this: <script src='LINK TO A SCRIPT ON HOTLINKFILES' type='text/javascript'/>
4. Now delete that single script/link
5. Blogger might asked you to delete/keep a widget related to the script, but just delete it anyway, if you find it to be not really important. (in my case, it's obviously an unknown script I've never wanted)

There you go, your website should be 'alive' again.
Have a nice day :)
