Apparently our ‘Facebook like’ and ‘Tweetmeme’ buttons have been spamming some worthless faux pharmacy in Canada since the 13th of August this year. Coincidentally, that was when I went away in Wales for a week.

I cannot locate any code on the site which has been tampered with, nor can I assume the affected plugins have been hacked because it only affects comics dating from the 13th of August onward – not blog posts, not individual pages. Just comics.

I really have no idea what is wrong, so I have removed the plugins until I can find out what has gone wrong and what we can do to see that the spammers involved are prosecuted. This site will not participate in the promotion of scams, especially not ones pushing dodgy medication.
