I did notice a weird cookie after this foray as well. Do we wait and see what else others might say or bring the post down now? Or simply remove the active link to the site in particular?

Hey, I was advised by taz that because this is a wordpress.com hosted site it is very unlikely to have been the source of my malware infection. I apologize for derailing the FPP with my concerns.
