Same exact thing happened to me. What theme are you using? I am wondering if there is corruption/vulnerability in the theme. Would that be crazy to assume?
I am using a self designed theme. Here is my website: http://www.priyank.com/weblog/ Good luck 😛 (thats all I can say!)

Hi,
I’m having a bizarre problem. I upgraded to WP 2.6 and then to 2.61 recently with all other settings, themes, plugins unchanged.
After every 2 days, the comments form on ALL my posts and pages turns itself off, the discussion settings are overruled and ‘User must be registered and logged in before commenting’ option gets enabled.
I have to manually run
UPDATE wp_posts SET comment_status = ‘open’;
to enable the comments form and change the commenting options but after 2 days – bang! the same problem.
The database seems to act on its own. What could be the reasons? Note that I haven’t changed any plugins or themes in ages but this problem is occurring since past 2 weeks.
Help appreciated. Thanks in advance.
