Although the people who code WP are a fantastic smart bunch and follow coding best-practices, there's always going to be some jerk that finds his/her way through the maze of protections. When they do, and they're found out, WP releases a revision that fixes the exploit. It's a constant cat-and-mouse game, one that I don't see an end to. Unless we reopen <a href='http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Devil%27s_Island' rel="nofollow">Devil's Island</a> for malicious hackers :D Unfortunately Robert, you’re dead-on right.

Even if you have both(a up to date WP version and this plug-in) you can still be hacked, I know because I was twice. It was handled poorly by Bluehost and am now with HostGator.
