Folk, WordPress has released an update for their Content Management System.  The new update is WordPress 2.8.5 which includes the following changes:

• A fix for the Trackback Denial-of-Service attack that is currently being seen.
• Removal of areas within the code where php code in variables was evaluated.
• Switched the file upload functionality to be whitelisted for all users including Admins.
• Retiring of the two importers of Tag data from old plugins.

Please make sure you update your WordPress blog to the latest version of WordPress for security reasons.  Also, I want to let everyone know that our i3theme and i2theme wordpress themes still work perfectly with the latest release (no need to worry).

There are a few great sites that will help you install wordpress, one site is AlreadyHosting.com, another great tool is SimpleScripts.com.  WordPress is working on WordPress 2.9.0, I suspect that it will be released in a few months.
