For those of you who have tried to leave comments and had my web server accuse you of being involved with spam or illegal activities, I do apologize. I use an excellent spam-fighting Wordpress Plugin called Bad Behavior and the author of the plugin made a change to a blacklist that inadvertently blew up a lot of blogs including this one.

From the explanation on Homeland Stupidity:

“Yesterday I moved all of my sites to a new dedicated server. In the process, I decommissioned an old blacklist I was running which I thought wasn’t being used, not realizing that Bad Behavior was still set to use it. Shortly afterward, I found myself locked out of my own blog, just as you all did..”

If you have a Wordpress blog and use Bad Behavior, you have to download the latest version of the software to avoid being locked out of your blog.

(Special thanks to N0ia for letting me know about my site’s bad behavior earlier this morning. Thanks, N0ia!)
