The Angels are after the Phone Box. Quote from Doctor Who tonight - Don’t Use WordPress 2.1.1
According to news on the official WordPress site, do not use WordPress 2.1.1! WordPress 2.1.1 was a version that became compromised, so make sure you bin your old version of WordPress 2.1.1 and install WordPress 2.1.2 immediately. - Monitor Your Site 24/7
It’s always nice to know your website is ticking over, doing its job, serving the community 24/7… but what if it does go down?

You’d think with a 1.73MHz Intel and 2GHz of RAM that Dreamweaver would play [...] - is4profit ReVamp

Visually it’s virtually the same as the previous website, but technically there’s a shiny new custom Content Mangement System under there, all-singing, all-dancing, powerful and quick too.
