    Hi,

    I have a problem similar to this one. The situation is as follows:
    – brand new WordPress install with wordpress 2.9.1
    – installed/activated a few plugins ( 2, 3 – no more )
    – added a few posts, less than 20
    – in meantime wordpress got updated and I updated the install to 2.9.2
    – IMPORTANT: the site is on a new domain, therefore there was absolutely no traffic, but myself accessing the site
    – the conclusion is that somehow wordpress used all the server CPU and the account had to be suspended

    also note, that the server logs stated the strange activity with the /wp-content/themes/index.php file, file which is EMPTY! – there was some strange recursion taking place, the script was recalling itself and this alone generated over 2 Gb of traffic for the hosting account in a couple of days!

    Is there any way to figure it out what the problem is?

    Thanks in advance,
    Constantin TOVISI
