 * Perfect. After looking at it, I don’t think the mod_rewrite method would’ve actually
   worked anyway.
 * I had no idea you could define those vars to override the database. I can easily
   live with the user_url not pointing to the ‘correct’ instance, and if the guid
   doesn’t really matter other than being unique, that’s great too.
 * Now I’m just going to define those two vars in wp-config and have SVN ignore 
   them when updating. Awesome!
 * Thanks.

 * If you haven’t done much customization (or even if you have), you might want 
   to download the version of the files on your webhost to your local machine. Then
   compare them to the local copy you had actually uploaded to the web host (you
   do have that right?). If you don’t, you can just download the WP2.5 zip again
   and extract it somewhere to compare.
 * I’d suggest using something like [http://winmerge.org/](http://winmerge.org/)(
   free) and just do a full directory compare. Then you’ll know if and what files
   have been changed from what WP delivers. If YOU didn’t make those changes… well
   there ya go.

 * No. It sounds like someone has been playing with your files…

 * The actual PHP file wp-content/index.php looks to simply be there to disallow
   directory browsing. The contents of this file (at least in 2.5) is simply:
 *     ```
       <?php
       // Silence is golden.
       ?>
       ```
   
 * So there should be nothing else in that file…
 * When I acutally browse there in a web browser, it outputs the following HTML:
 *     ```
       <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
       <HTML><HEAD>
       <META http-equiv=Content-Type content="text/html; charset=windows-1252"></HEAD>
       <BODY></BODY></HTML>
       ```
