Living Room / "Admin" is a BAD user name for anything! Change t!

If your login name for Wordpress (or anything else) is "Admin", you really should change that for security reasons.
I logged into Cpanel on 2 of my domains (same web host), to see this notice at the top of the page.
The page they reference in the screenshot is this one: http://blog.cloudflare.com/patching-the-internet-fixing-the-wordpress-br
If you have been stupid enough to keep the default login of "admin" enabled on anything, do whatever you have to do to change it ASAP! Unless you'd really enjoy getting hacked, that is.
Keeping default login names or passwords on anything is BAD SECURITY!
