Whenever I post or reply to a post in the newb forum, on top and outside of the "thank you for your submission", I get this message:

-rw-r--r-- 1 mydomain mydomain 5031 Mar 29 2004 admin.php -rw-r--r-- 1 mydomain mydomain 632 Mar 29 2004 blocks.php -rw-r--r-- 1 mydomain mydomain 0 Mar 29 2004 index.html -rw-r--r-- 1 mydomain mydomain 4178 Mar 29 2004 main.php -rw-r--r-- 1 mydomain mydomain 7465 Apr 8 2004 modinfo.php

I believe someone hacks my site or some virus is there. Does anyone know how I can get rid of this?

Hmm, This might not be a hacking attempt but an error/mistake on you or your server.

=| I don't know what that is, I am guessing it has something to do with Chomding your folders right? This interesting though, hopefully someone with more experience will fill us in.

I don't know exactly which file read my directory and display the file permission on screen...

I decided to DEACTIVATE the NEWBB module and delete the folder NEWBB (without uninstalling the database). I upload a copy from my own computer, and update the module in admin.

The exploitation is gone. My assumption is that the shlldoc virus must have written itself to a file somewhere inside the NEWBB folder. By getting rid of the module, I got rid of the virus.

Damn, nicely done :) I'll remember this topic just incase something like this happens.
