Hacked!

An automated script managed to inject code into my blog’s template. Fortunately it did nothing more malicious than to insert link spam (visually hidden links to various dubious sites, to boost search engine rankings for those sites), but it was pretty disconcerting. I’ve removed all traces of the attack, changed my password and am upgrading the wordpress software behind this site. I’d appreciate the help, if anyone reading my blog ever sees anything questionable here (links to questionable sites or anything that looks wrong) please let me know. I don’t do advertising here and I want you friends and family to be safe from harm and annoyance when visiting. Thanks and here’s hoping it doesn’t happen to any of your sites.
