I got the same thing today, on a password protected post! It’s got to be something other than a pingback/trackback.

Thus far, this is my wp-config.php file’s editable stuff:
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘thoughtpud’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘thoughtpud’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘passwordgoeshere’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value
There’s two databases my webhosts have set up on my account, and since the first one’s named “test”, I didn’t think it would be a good idea to run things out of there (that and the fact I’ve tried and it still doesn’t work).
The thing is, either way, when running the install file, I get the following:
wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Need more help? We got it. You can create a wp-config.php file through a web interface, but this doesn’t work for all server setups. The safest way is to manually create the file.”); require_once(‘../wp-config.php’); require(‘upgrade-functions.php’); if (isset($_GET[‘step’])) $step = $_GET[‘step’]; else $step = 0; ?>
And then it proceeds to go through steps 1 through 4, spits out code everywhere, doesn’t guess my url, and tells me I can log in with the user name “admin” and no password (which doesn’t work, the page won’t come up at all). *Shrugs* Any ideas? Everything’s in the proper directories. I’ve CHMODed everything to death (tried default, tried 755, tried 777)… And I don’t have the ability to make any new databases, nor do I know how really. Like I said, I’m so new to this it’s embarrassing. The first time I’ve ever seen anything mySQL was last night at midnight. Any help would be appriciated.
