Hi Warriors,

I just read an article on Wordpress that may be
of interest to many of you guys who use it.

The link is here:

According to the article, it seems there is a truckload of
security issues with Wordpress...

    I thought MS Windows owned the first place?

    The bigger userbase - the bigger buzz. Upgrades are important.

    Solution 1: Go with hosted blog/cms and become prey to their TOS and inability to evolve.

    Solution 2: Full Freedom + regular backups and updates.
