Upgraded to WordPress 2.6.2

Because I just got hacked by something nasty. I guess staying on 2.0 was a bit of a gamble.

Seriously, guys -- and I'm talking to everyone who writes any kind of web facing software here -- if you can't release a provably 100% secure web application on day one, please do the entire Net a favour and DON'T RELEASE IT AT ALL.

That's too hard? Your tools won't allow you to prove whether your app is hackable or not? Sorry, but the bad guys don't care. They can security-test your software - why can't you?

'Apply patches' is the wrong answer. Try again.
