Title: Main page hacked?
Post by: sayeth on November 14, 2007, 03:37:36 AM

I just visited www.escapepod.org and found a load of links to pharma-spam in the section where Steve usually puts story-related links. Thought somebody'd like to know. (Nov 13, 9:35 Central Time)

OK, now's it's either fixed or I was just hallucinating the first time.

I see in the source of the home page a lot (about a hundred) of links to

http://www.dna.neu.edu/images/?WEIRD_KEYWORD.html

Where WEIRD_KEYWORD is one of a huge list of movie or Youtube or porn-related keywords.

They're wrapped in an invisible (style="display:none") bold element.

So these would not render in a browser.

Weird. Is this a desired thing?
