Defaced!
The [Movable Type][] manual leaves much to be desired, but the good news is that there is a web site on [Learning Movable Type][] which had an excellent article on [using suexec][] which my [web host][] recently startedd using. All of this comes up because of a [bug in PhpBB][] which allowed for the defacement of this website, because all of the webpages were world writable.
Problems now fixed. Response time of the [web host][]? Seven minutes flat for a four paragraph reply which actually made sense.
