Subject: [STATE-COORD] Latest Info: Reinfection of National & Sites Hostedat
theusgenweb.org
An update on the latest malware infection - I sent part of this last night
But as happens every so often with messages from
earthlink.net, it was
Rejected as the mail server it happened to go through was the one
Blacklisted by
sorbs.net.
****************************Please forward to applicable Project Lists
***************************
In regards to the message that both National and sites hosted at
Theusgenweb.org were clear of infection, within 24 hours, the infection was
Back. The sites have once again been cleaned and no alarms are currently
Sounding as you visit the pages, as far as we can tell. We found a couple
Of files that appear to be how the pages were re-infected this time.
We've disabled FTP access to all accounts for the time being as we check
Through all folders on the account to make sure things are clean. We'll get
New passwords out as soon as we can - please understand, we want to be sure
That things stay clean!
If you continue to have problems, or get reports of any further problems,
Please let either us know.
Thanks,
Sherri Bradley
