I know, they are extremely rare and the information I'm getting from my host possibly isn't the best. Originally, they blamed it on an outdated script. And if it's really a PHP exploit, why did it only affect the one domain. I'm hosting 5 from the same account.

Anyway to answer your question its version 4.3.9

4.3.9 was released in Sep 2004, and there have been numerous security patches since then.

However, I would still believe the exploit came through something like phpmyadmin, awstats or some other php script as some of the exploits on php itself require some pretty specific circumstances.

Your definately much more knowledgable on this type of thing than I ever hope to be. All I can say is that when I checked my index.php file the javascript wasn't there. When rendered to my browser and viewed using view source, it over wrote the W3C document type statement.

What path it took to get there, I haven't a clue.
