    i just want to report that my blog at forumrating.com got hacked, though i have updated blog to new version .
    i would suggest all of you to constantly update to new versions as and when they come.

    i lost some very important posts that i had put up for forum promotions.

    Actually i do login everyday. Once i login i can see a alert box whether i need update or not. So, even without visiting wordpress.org i get alert.

    Well, i mean atleast once in a day we need to visit our blog site.

    Of course, there may be some scripts which can mail us alert on new patches or updates. If anything , please recommend.

    Best Regards,

    Nirmal

    Sorry that your blog got hacked. It's very important to update newer versions or patches released and also install firewalls, antiviruses and spy removers to your pc.
