Site Hacked :(

Appologies but the site has been down between Sunday evening and Monday morning (3rd April) as some bunch of script kiddie monkies decided to carry out a web site defacement. Essentially they replaced all my index files with the following;

Fatal Error 2006 – bY: owz

Looking this up on zone-h.org revealed that this is being carried out by a defacement team and thus far they’ve hit around 26196 sites! Nice work you brain dead morons !!!

Anywho no real harm done as I have a backup so the site is functioning again (aside from the gallery which I’ll fix this evening). Check the following link to see what sites have been hit zone-h.org

  1. Hello:My blog has been hacked two times by those “kind” people.The first one, I got the same mesage. The second one, only Hacked [BY] [Owz].I have virtual hosting and if I want to edit themes via admin panel I have to CHMOD files to 666. This is the back door they used (I think they attack using a PERL script). I have changed permisions to 644.I use WordPress 1.5.1.2. I´m thinking in an upgrade., although I´ve posted a ticket to my host admin to give me some advice.Do you have any idea of how to get rid definitely of this problem?Thank you. (and sorry for any mistake)Saludos desde España. (Madrid)
