If you have a Wordpress blog and you've used a Hebrew-converted theme from
Mastergate, you probably have malware on your site.

crude quick way to find potential problems: run ' grep
"eval.*base64_decode" * -r ' on your web directories.

The Israeli Free Software scene is small and we should go out in a unified
strong declaration against such ethical/legal violations, possibly also a
GPL violation. This pond is too small to piss in and stay unpunished. I say
the responsible parties need to be named and condemned, and I personally
hope one of the people affected would sue them as well.
