Thank you HandySolo,
wandering: no, you were very helpful. Also in my lurking I have seen people driven to the forums, so I think you are correct that it depends 😉
whooami, thank you for the comment. I had previously misunderstood the nature of that exploit, it does seem to be a remote exploit.
Most likely:
(a) weak password
(b) the vulnerability is in another piece of software on your computer
What version of WordPress are you running? I do not know of any remote exploits for WP 2.0.x .
The network and computers system logs are your best place to start looking.
Very nice!
Minor annoyance doing a search on the page using Firefox 1.5, I can’t see the highlighted term below the bottom “curtain”. I have to scroll down more.
