We are seeing multiple reports today of Wordpress sites (running their latest version) getting compromised. The initial reports today were restricted only to Dreamhost, but now we are seeing the same pattern on blogs hosted at GoDaddy and other places.So, it doesn't look like something specific to a hosting company. The only thing in similar is that all of them are on shared servers.
Find specific details on the hack here.

It seems that a second round of attacks are happening today at GoDaddy and infecting all kind of sites (Joomla, Wordress,etc). Looking at the modification dates on the files, they all happened May 1st (today) during the morning from 1 to 3/4 am.
GoDaddy hosted WordPress sites have been hacked... again. They have confirmed the issues.

WordPress blogs hosted on Godaddy were hacked by another malicious attack on April 24, 2010 at 6:54am. What was visible in the source code was <script src="http://cechirecom.com/js.php"> located just above the </body> tag on all .php files.
This is dangerous malware! It tries to infect your visitors computers with a virus. If a visitor is not protected with a good, up-to-date anti-virus program, their computer will become infected. And it needs to be removed
If you host WordPress at GoDaddy you may want to check this out as your site may be vulnerable to attack. Or maybe you are ready to get good WordPress hosting :-)

Tracking outbound links is often a good idea if you are linking to your own sites and / or offsite content outposts. This way you can track when people switch sites with more accuracy. Remember: the more data the better..
