It changes all the time, a new security hole is found and a new batch of scripts are written to attack it.

Hello!

Curious about what kind of nasties you’ve been catching with these database checks…would you please share?

I’m wondering if the recent updates to WordPress (to 3.2.1) might have covered any of this ground.

“AND finally optimize your tables” is not part of the SQL Sorry I didn’t make that clearer.

It should be:

OPTIMIZE TABLE `ugj_comments` , `ugj_links` , `ugj_options` , `ugj_postmeta` , `ugj_posts` , `ugj_terms` , `ugj_term_relationships` , `ugj_term_taxonomy` , `ugj_usermeta` , `ugj_users` ;
