WordPress 2.6.4 is a FAKE version

By , About.com GuideNovember 11, 2008

Follow me on:

According to the Mac Security Blog a fake version of WordPress has been found. It's actually a trojan horse. It is a non-existent version 2.6.4 that has pointers back to a fake WordPress site that then steals your credentials. If you've been tricked by this false site, The Social Programmer has information on how to clean it up.

John-David: WordPress is way beyond version 2.4.7 now. If you want to install it you should get the most recent version from Wordpress.org (or Wordpress.com). Don’t get it from any other URL than one of those two. You should type that URL into your browser window just to be sure. I believe the most current version as of today (March 17, 2010) is 2.9.2.
