Malware Cleanup

Just to say that I’ve waved a magic script over the 1,400 files that were affected by whatever exploit hit the BlogNomic server. As far as I can tell, this should stop the redirect problem, but if it hasn’t (or if it comes straight back), let me know.

Access via Dolphin for Android seems to be working fine. Thanks Kevan!

It was only ever busted in IE in my experience. Working fine now, but then again it was never 100% repro before so who knows if its actually fixed =)

Did you ever actually figure out what happened or did you just run some magic script and hoped that cleared up whatever the issue is?

75th Trombone figured out the effect but not the cause, he’s chasing it up with Dreamwidth. I just wrote a little sed script to clean up what we could see of the mess.
