Indeed I was hacked too. This thread gave me only HALF of the solution. The OTHER
HALF goes like this:
Levels upon levels of undeleteable garbage directories
c:\inetpub\ftproot\[noname]\fbjc;;;;\fbjx;;;;\...
First I issued a del *.* /f /s/q as suggested by someone on this thread. This command
cascaded through the directories and deleted the files without prompting.
BUT
The empty directories were still there and they could not be deleted/renamed/copied/moved
using windows explorer. Furthermore, the directory did not have a name in dos, so
I could not even remove (rd) or change (cd) to the folder because I couldn't name
it! Hundreds of levels and hundreds of items on each level.
The solution was to issue a rd /s command from the parent directory.
In my example:
c:\inetpub\ftproot\[noname]\fbjc;;;;\fbjx;;;;\... and so on
from the c:\inetpub\ directory I issued the command rd ftproot /s.
Presto!
If only I could issue a RH /P /AK command
(remove hacker /permanent /with ass kicking)
