This is a first. I’ve been blogging for almost ten years now, and I’ve never been a victim of anything this invasive. Please help me figure this out:
When I make new posts now, somehow, some way, spam links to nasty porn sites insert themselves into my post code! The links do not show up on the front page of this blog, but they do occur in the displayed RSS feed. I’ll take a look at the code of this post before I post it and it won’t be there. But when I come back to it and hit “edit,” I find links to pages about “BBW fingering.” I do not want that.
The more I think about it the more pissed off I get. Is this because I changed my template? How the fuck did these spammers infect my blogging platform? Ugh! Make it stop. Any help or hints you have would be greatly appreciated.

You might have to rebuild yr site. PHP is not very secure without a few hacks.
WordPress is very secure but according to your source it says you are using v2.2.1. This is a very old version. The current stable version is 2.5. I would say use at least 2.3.3 if you don’t plan to upgrade to the latest. You might also disable this theme and use the default and post something and see if the problem continues. If it doesn’t then it could be the theme. They always say to change your theme to the default for WordPress and disable any plugins you have and add them one at a time to find problems.
I saw that and thought you were just being REAL edgy.

Seconding James Fleetings suggestions. Upgrade to 2.5 and I think you will patch most holes.
Done! Thanks, Kevin.
If you, er, send me a link to those porn sites I could, um, you know, do some research and, like, try to figure it out.
The best was “100 Things to Do Before I Die”
Japanese schoolgirl anal rape.
I was thinking “wow, San Fran really changed Brittney”.
