Dee has drawn my attention to a problem on LJ that could spread over here.
Basically it's some kind of hacking - virus - thing that fucks up journals and communities.
Does it show that I don't know the language?
Anyhow - it'll purge a journal then make the following post in any community to which the journal had administrative rights:

The post itself is scary enough but clicking on the links spreads the - whatever - to make everything still worse.
This sounds to me like what killed the journal and several comms belonging to a friend on LJ. He says it was due to having originally started his journal with a now obsolete email account which had been taken over by the hacker - or whatever. Not sure if it IS the same but just to let you know that we have no plans to close the comm so if you see such a post it's BOGUS and please ignore it.
thanks all
