After getting reinstated I wrote a nice post about the pain it is to update wordpress every month or two. Sure would be nice if they could do that for you.

One more thing, I was checking out the new JavaOne event video about JavaFX, it's kinda of like adobe air but it's suppose to let you run the app on the web site and drag that app from the web site to your desktop the funny thing was they couldnt get the demo to work properly, lol, I felt bad for the girl giving the demo but it was pretty funny.

I even had them do a complete wipe and reinstall of WordPress for me. The hack I got nailed for was something different. Though I'm sure semi-related. @Jamie, yup, I’d tracked that problem down to WordPress plugins, so I thought I had that one under control.

Thanks! It's great! @Ryan, Love the blog. Did you know that a <a href="http://blog.digitalbackcountry.com/?p=1373#comment-632512" rel="nofollow">comment from April 1</a> was the first clue about your site being hacked? @Hello Idiot, Can you take it down a few notches, please? Unlike spam, you do have a point to your comments but it makes people want to dismiss what you have to say when you deliver it like such. Wordpress made the programming error that allowed hackers to get around the login. They fixed their code and, yes, users of their software should be quick to update. @David Colletta, I changed my wordpress blog to use SVN for updates. Thanks! It’s great!
