 * Every so often I find the post on blog have been spammed with a link inserted
   every so often throughout all the posts. Good job I have the database automatically
   backing up every day so I can run it back to the latest good version. Any ideas
   what this could be?
 * There doesn’t seem to be any additional users/authors and it’s an up-to-date 
   version of wordpress. The only thing I can think is that a couple of post-to-
   twitter style plugins I added recently have created a way in. I’ve been turning
   off the plugins one by one to see what happens.
 * Anyone else having this problem? All the spam plugins seem to stop comment spam–
   I haven’t as yet found one for post spam.
