This is not the first time Britney Spears’ website has been targeted for spam exploitation. Back in March, her blog was filled with pharmacy spam comments.

We didn’t find out in March where Britney Spears’ official website was hosted. It has turned out that this website is also hosted by a San Antonio-based web hosting company called rackspace Hosting.
