A new version of Wordpress has been released within the last couple of hours. It seems that the previous 2.1.1 version was hacked within the past 3-4 days, and because of that, the entire 2.1.1 version has been deemed dangerous. It’s highly recommended that anyone running 2.1.1, or if you know someone who is, should upgrade to the latest WordPress 2.1.2 version, as soon as possible.

The latest Wordpress 2.1.2 Version is now available for download on the official WordPress download page.
