WordPress 2.3.3 is an urgent update for security reasons - install it asap

Just a quick note to let everyone know that a new version of WordPress was released (WP 2.3.3) to address some urgent security related issues and it is highly recommend that you upgrade to it as soon as you can. So far I’ve upgraded one of my sites and the upgrade went very smoothly. When I have more time, I’ll report back on how the upgrades have gone on the remainder of my sites - including this one - like many people with large WP sites, I’m always scared when performing an upgrade b/c there have been times in the past where they’ve caused issues that resulted in my site being down for 1+ days while I researched in the support forums how to get my site back up and running — this is one of my main complaints about WordPress even though I love it in almost all other ways. This is also why for those who are not technically inclined, I really recommend using a hosted blog service like TypePad or WordPress.com (if you want to use javascript or adsense ads, you’ll have to go for TypePad, which costs money as opposed to the free WordPress.com)
