I just did a session at Drupalcamp LA 2010 and my presentation was on Updating Drupal without Drush. Well recently I was hacked. I can't tell you what site it was, but it wasn't pretty. At least it wasn't anything bad, just spam. Regardless, it freaked me out completely. The reason for the hack was that one of my modules was out of date. There was a security update that I hadn't applied.
Since then I am now hyper vigalant about updating my sites as you should be. It's not hard and it's well worth it. Drupal is a very secure platform to build from IF you take care of it. So, all of you "Drupaleros" (to quote Christefano) please do your updates. I will post my session here when it comes out from UC Irvine.
