FFS LiveJournal!!!

They've gone and done it again! This time they've put a bit of obfuscated javascript code into all LJ pages which redirects links you post out of LJ through a third party site and if you have affiliate links in your links then your affiliate number is being stripped out and replaced with LJ's. So LJ is basically stealing your money. Tut tut tut.

Further Reading
[livejournal.com profile] vichan has a summary of what is going on with lots of useful links
[livejournal.com profile] caffeinepuppy explains how to use the admin console to stop this happening (only for logged in users though)
