Damn Hackers!

My site has been hacked again. That'll teach me for not upgrading WordPress religiously.

I've fixed the problem (I hope) and sent a review request to Google, so hopefully things should return to normal soon.

An upside to all this is that I'm now running WordPress 2.6, which means I'm going to have to fix some of my plugins (like Real WYSIWYG) and I should be releasing updates soonish (but don't hold you're breath).

Oh BTW, if anyone from Google is reading this, could you please do something about providing some decent information to the website owners when you flag a site a bad. This site stayed infected for much longer, because no specifics were provided. It is the equivalent of saying "Sorry Sir, you are under arrest. No Sir, we cannot provide you with details of what the crime was."
