 * I have found a few times that SOMEHOW, people are somehow inserting random links
   directly into the content of my posts. My account has a hard password and the
   server is physically and firewall-wise locked down very tightly. I saw this start
   happening in 2.7.1 and it might have happened in my 2.8…
 * If people can subtly insert harmless links, then any HTML can be inserted…
 * Unfortunately, my current host doesn’t keep log files for long, so the date that
   I narrowed it down to, I don’t have the data for.
 * Anyone else have this problem?

 * This is the same manner it has been happening on mine, even some of the links
   in his are the same as the ones I saw.

 * Hi,
 * wordpress is an open source code so change the password for your blog at regular
   intervals..upgrade all the plugins and install the only one which are compatible
   with wordpress version
 * Do not install any vulnerable script into your domain
 * Thanks,
 * Shane G.
