site hacked by spammers :(

hey all. i just posted something the other day, but then today a friend said “dude, why are your comments turned off?”. A quick inspection showed that my most recent article had been replaced by penis-enlarger pharmaceutical spam.

luckily, i had already started doing an upgrade in december, so i had a site backup from then. I’ve now restored from backups and upgraded the wordpress version to the latest (2.7). It seems that somewhere along the line, the chinese characters in my comments have been nuked, but maybe i can fix that later. Test for now: ????. we’ll see if that saves properly.

I hope to be blogging more in the near future. come back soon :)

    Did the obama post get nuked by the upgrade, along with my comment to it?
