Been a little bit quiet on here recently, but rest assured I got some ideas for a few interesting and hopefully useful posts in the near future.
Currently messing about with Clonezilla and DRBL server to make a nice cloning system for our network that will work with all computers, Mac and Windows based! Will post my findings once I have had a chance to test it!

Wordpress.org have released 2.8.5
It is recommended that all users upgrade as soon as possible.
This is a security release, which hardens some areas of the code, specifically a fairly large fix to prevent a traceback file DOS attack.
Update can be applied from your dashboard as usual. Another interesting link they put on the upgrade post is that there is a useful plugin that allows you to scan your WP Blog for some current known exploits. The plugin is Wordpress Exploit Scanner
Happy upgrading

Just done the update to WordPress 2.8.
Tried the auto upgrade feature and it wouldn’t work at first, just kept getting stuck at the “Unpacking core files” bit. After a little bit of digging, I then deactivated ALL plugins and retried. Worked perfectly at that point. Then just a quick reactivation of plugins and Bob is your mothers brother!!
First impressions are that it is noticeable faster in all areas, a welcome improvement. And I would therefore assume that it will put less of a load on the web server as a result.
It can be downloaded from wordpress.org or upgrade automatically from your admin panel!
