   Well, I have actually had two cases. Becore Christmas somebody placed   
   a new frontpage on my site with arab writings. But this time it was   
   clearly a pfishing-attempt.   
      
   However, I have come a little further. In a sub-folder I discovered a   
   tar-file. It is an archive containing 66 files in several folders.   
   Total size of the archive is 240 kb. (If anybody wants to see it, just   
   tell me).   
      
   Anyway it means they must have uploaded this archive to the folder and   
   then unpacked it there. It means the different folders and subfolders   
   have been created as the archive was unpacked.   
      
   So my question is now: Is it possible to upload a tar-file to a   
   http-server (Linux/Apache) and extract the files on the server, by   
   using a buggy php-code found on the site?
