[wp-hackers] Incoming Links from Technorati

[Lorelle VanFossen]

We're getting a growing number of complaints by users about the Incoming 
Links section on the Dashboard sidebar.  
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/40222 is one that seems to point to 
some possibilties but no answers.

The issue is that text of the link is from a site supposedly linking to 
"my" site, but the link itself opens in 404 Page Not Found and consists 
of http://www.example.com/wp-admin/1123005122 
<http://www.cameraontheroad.com/wp-admin/1123005122> consistently. I've 
checked with several other users who usually don't pay attention to the 
Dashboard and they all report the same problem. This is a recent event. 
Some thought it might be a plugin like Spam Karma, but others report the 
problem who are not using that plugin.  It might be a problem on 
technorati's side or WordPress.  Don't know if it is a bug or....well, what?

Thanks,

Lorelle
