Yes, you are right. I used the same login / password combination at some sponsors. OK, now I learned that was pretty stupid, but on the other hand I didnīt expect it.

Iīm now using unique login / password combinations, changing the password regularly and my passwords are now complicated and much more difficult to guess.

Not all my sites were infected. Not sure enough to accuse him publicly, though.

Fortunately not even one gallery was modified with the script. The script forced the installation of an "start.exe" which connected to a site hosted at "inhoster.com". I donīt think itīs worth to contact them if you have a look at their site.

The site called us-counter.com and dnv-counter.com belong to a guy from Ukraine and are blacklisted with several records. IPīs from the sites and from the hosting company are pretty much the same.

Iīd like to close down that hoting company for sure. Those behaviour easily ruins the reputation of persons involved.
