Hi guys
Well, ronnie warned me here:

and I did listen, but I was just putting it off for a few days. Too late.
I've just spend a couple of hours working out wtf happened to my blog and it turns out I was hit by something called a "spam injection hack."
Info here:

Essentially, if you find all your plugins suddenly disabled and you're suddenly getting a bunch of comment emails - do something quick!
Here's the WP boards info about how to fix it:

Also this one:

I upgraded to 2.5 but it doesn't necessarily fix it and you may need to start deleting injected files from your db.
So I'll link to these pages while I'm here:

Now I feel so naked and vulnerable...
