Can bloggers please check their blogs for spam posts.

I assume you all know that you can delete spam comments from your dashboards, however, there have been a number of incidents where a third party has actually managed to post a diary entry, or over write an existing entry, with a long screed containing links to a essay writing site.

This would indicate that some passwords have been compromised, so, could all bloggers go into their blogs and change passwords as soon as possible.

Just bumping this back up again as relieved33 is still getting spam posted on there. Don't know if he/she is aware that this is happening.

I wasn't aware as I have been enjoying my first sunny holiday with my hubby for almost 7 years! Paid for by saving money for a year!

I shall change my password now, thank you.

You should be able to delete the spam postings as well.

Hope you had a great holiday!!

I think I have removed everything.

The holiday was fantastic, thank you. The IVA has certainly made us reevaluate things. We appreciated every minute as we had worked and saved to fund it.

Yep - it all seems to be ok now!

Glad you had a good time and at least there is no worrying about any bills coming through the post!!
