The results are often a white page with no results. Just a 2 months ago, one was successful to redirect visitors directly to a pharma site. Wordpress is a popular target for these infections.

Then, it is just a matter of locking down the directories of files as read-only. --- Thunderbird 2.0.0.24 (Windows/20100228) * Origin: nntp://rbb.fidonet.fi - Lake Ylo - Finland (2:221/360.0) SEEN-BY: 1/123 19/10 90/1 103/705 154/10 203/0 221/0 1 6 360 227/114 SEEN-BY: 229/426 452 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/854 SEEN-BY: 317/3 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/81 120 633/280 712/848 770/1 PATH: 221/360 1 280/464 229/426 |
