Wordpress Blogs hacked - but only if referred from Google
Alex Popescu just twittered about a serious Wordpress hack (although he was not the first). Apparently somebody hacked his Wordpress Blog to redirect readers, who reach it via a Google search, to your-needs.info. Luckily my blog has not been hit (yet?!):

If your Blog is infected, look at the forum thread at wordpress.org for details how to fix it.
