FYI to all the WordPress fans.. If you recently noticed that your links are getting hijacked by URLs pointing to “linkbucks.com”, try deleting your my-videotag plugin. I found this nastiness somehow embedded in the source code:
$ find . -name ‘*.php’ |xargs grep -e linkbuck
./wp-content/plugins/my-videotag/my-videotag.php: return ‘<a href=”http://77aafbe6.linkbucks.com/url/’ . $matches[2] . ‘//’ . $matches[3] . ‘”‘ . $matches[1] . $matches[4] . ‘ target=”_blank”>’ . $matches[5] . ‘</a>’;
Ack! We’ll be deleting the my-videotag plugin now. 🙂
