OK OK, I know if a real hacker wants access to your box with your little wordpress site on it, it is curtains, but there are many things you can do to make it a little more difficult, especially for script kiddies
who can do a lot of damage.

There is a blog that I read, and I urge more of you to read it too.

It is the Hacker Webzine

Recently two posts have really caught my eye. Normally I try to preach good practice in code sanitasation and generally protecting yourself when it come to Google but the Hacker Webzine have recently covered checking for update / hacked files and more recently using htaccess as a webapplication firewall.
