Just in case you haven't seen it, here's a story of a guy who wrote a JavaScript worm that propagated on MySpace, but, more interestingly, here's the explanation behind the worm, which has a few things I didn't think about when trying to harden user input on this site, and which I should write some code to clean out.

Nice diatribe on what he did and how it worked. Educational.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
