Using Wordpress? Watch out for these users
After resuming one of my blogs that was idle, I found some error 400 messages from the video links. Turns out I was hacked with these usernames. I'm just glad there wasn't a whole lot of content on there, yet. Yikes!

It took a while, but I was able to get everything back to working order again. :) Afterwards, I upgraded to the new versions and reset all passwords. Hopefully, that'll be enough! {fingers crossed}
Those might or might not be actual users. There has been a rash of WordPress site hacking happening in the past few weeks. If your site was less than current, then it probably got hacked. Read up on ways to fix it (if you have content to save), or just erase the database and start over with a new installation. :)
Good luck!
