Hack attack!

Thanks to Kirsten for pointing out that at least one of my blog posts got hit with a spam attack, inserting invisible links into it.

See here and here for other reports.

The quick solution is to upgrade to WordPress 2.5 quick smart. Which I’ll be doing now, so apologies for any interruptions.

Yes yes, it’s going around… I got some spam in my blog comments last week. Must be the time of the month or something. sheesh!

I’ve been really impressed with the spam control for WordPress 2.5 – only had about 2 spam comments since I upgraded. Sounds like this is a little more sinister, though!
