You know, Chop said a lot of good things about you, but that doesn't count for shit after your performance in this thread. Fine, you as a host don't want to assist your customers with this type thing. Go ahead and tell them they're on their own. Good for you. Her site has an exploit - she doesn't know what to do. What should my advice be? "Too bad, it's your fault, you're fucked now." I guess I'm right out of my fucking mind to tell someone to speak to their host when their site has so obviously been eploited.

I'm giving advice based on my experience with a very similar matter. I had to leave host due a server-wide exploit creating very similiar conditions. I've been there!

Never did I blame the host - or hosts in general. You can either chill out or go fuck yourself. Don't try to twist my words. You keep this shit up and it's only going to result in name-calling, you pathetic excuse for a sig whore.

NOT TRUE!
I had a very similar problem to Saucy Panties just two days before hers. I couldn't log in via my FTP software to upload files. I was about ready to go to bed but shot a support ticket off to Host Head and got a response within 10 minutes. They had already checked their end and said they were secure. They said I had uploaded "malicious html" and suggested three different anti-virus programs to use to find it. I used the free one. It found this: Trojan horse Downloader.Zlob.FWR and was located here: C:\Program Files\Video ActiveX Object\uninst.exe. It deleted the Trojan, they re-set my password and I uploaded a clean index page. And yes, Norton didn't catch it. Norton's support person said Windows won't let them into certain files because they might get corrupted and not work(And some other double-talk bullshit that didn't make any sense)
This is one host I won't be leaving for a long time.

I have helped at least 20 people with this issue, and every one of them has had this Trojan on their PC. Once they got rid of the Trojan, the problem stopped.

And that is exactly what Host Head did.

Hey Licker...two words man...'Dump Norton'.

It used to be pretty good, but these days it's a bloated piece of software that simply doesn't get the job done.

There are much better options out there, that should prevent these kinds of infections
