Movable Type spam vulnerability

Apparently the script used for MT's "Mail this entry" function is vulnerable to spammers. To solve the problem quickly, rename mt-send-entry.cgi. New versions of MT 2.64 have the fix incorporated.

(For some reason this posting draws a high number of comment spams, so I've turned off commenting for it. Sorry!)

Actually version 2.65 of MT fixed the spam bug. Just thought I would let you know.
