   Not sure if this is the right place to post about this but maybe someone can point me in the right direction. I have 2.5 and the latest Tarski as my theme. My recent articles were all getting spammed (i.e. the bodies were all turned into spam links). I refreshed Tarski and most of them went away, but they're starting to re-appear. Forgive my ignorance, but a) how is this happening, and b) what can I do about it? I googled around but "recent comments spam" doesn't return much useful. Thanks,

   I'm unclear about what's being spammed. Are you getting spam comments or trackbacks? This happens all the time, and the solution is to use one of the many anti-comment spam plugins.

   But if you're saying that your actual posts (not the comments) are changing from the blog posts you made into spam links, then you have a serious problem, as the security of your site has been compromised.
