    Hi All,

    Just wondering if anyone's heard anything about WordPress blogs being hijacked in recent days. A friend of mine runs a WordPress blog for his kids' school, and he mentioned that it was "hijacked" for a day or two around a week ago. He wasn't sure if this was something that affected all WordPress blogs, or his alone.

    Thanks in advance for any information anyone can provide. :)

    Nothing here but there was a thread at, not sure if I am allowed to say it but here goes, WW .com.

    More a general how to make WP more secure. Search Brett's site for locking down wordpress and you'll find it.
