  I suspect there is a security problem with my blog. A number of spam messages have gotten through recently and I received a message this morning indicating that my blog had subscribed to itself. I recently changed my password to be more secure but what else can I do to ensure no one can hack into my blog? Thanks very much.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
