i got hacked by something almost exactly like this like 3 months ago. They uploaded a folder called .files with about 2K html files there to each of my folders.

Probably a few million crap files all together. Was a huge pain in the ass to clear all that crap out. After that point I killed all wordpress installs, since it has such a huge target on it's back.

This .files attack was common too. We posted about it a while ago:

btw your blogsite is very scammy looking.

I got a message from my host with a link to your site, where you instructed to download and install a file...and I was 100% sure that it was just just a scam, where you sent out spam messages pretending to be hosts, with a link to the blog post where you were asking me to download malware.

In fact I was in the process of contacting customer support of my host, when I noticed the letter I got in recent history.

You should really spend a little time making it look more legitimate,

You lost me there. We never sent messages to anyone to download and install files. Can you forward the email to me (dd at sucuri.net)?

*but I agree, we really need some improvements on our design.

what I meant was that I got a letter from my host telling me I got hacked(a week or so after I fixed everything)...and they linked to your site.

But after hitting your site, I got the impression that it was just a scam site trying to get me to install some malware.

Oh, sorry about that. I misunderstood it.

But it is nice to see hosting companies linking to us :) I am still looking for a designer to work on our blog/site.
