 * hello,
    it appears my site has fallen foul of a hacker who has inserted iframes
   all over the shop. i deleted most of them manually but there is one group of 
   them that i can’t locate. they are in the rendered HTML of all pages, including
   my dashboard and appear before the header, when there is nothing preceding the
   header in any templates, any ideas?

 * look inside wp-settings.php and wp-config.php ..
 * I notice you are running 2.5. along with a whole host of other stuff.. You might
   want to consider capturing $_POST variables sent to any and all WP pages. It 
   would help you to know how they accomplished that.
