A client recently had a problem with their WordPress site where it kept redirecting to a random URL - investigation showed that it went to tomorrowwillbehotmaybe in this instance.
The site hasn't been updated in a while (they are self client managed), and the issue appeared to be with a plugin called 301 simple redirect.
Disabling the plugin by renaming the plugin folder resolved the issue and the client could get back into the site as needed. Seems as though this particular plugin has a security hole in the older versions which got plugged - fine as long as the sites getting updated!
