FTP Down / Computer Attacked !
Members will have to U2U again for FTP access. It seems a
piece a malware got into the system and overwrote the
user/pw file setup by FileZilla. My fellow administrator is one
very unhappy chap right now ! The data and folders on the
FTP are intact but the entire server had to be reloaded. Two
of us maintain the FTP and share the costs. Each of us has
his favorite website that we maintain the FTP for.
All of us would like to slow-torture the wanker(s) who wrote
that damn trojan !
From opening of NCIS New Orleans - It goes a BOOM ! BOOM ! BOOM ! MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !

Just out of curiosity, is it a windows machine? If so, wouldn't another OS be more secure?
