Suspicious files

Post by Tata » Sun Feb 26, 2012 10:22 am

My CMSimple.sk webpage is running a couple of years without any serious problems. Now I found two files in its root:
wp_admin.php (1.4 kB)
zend_ion_index.php (18.6 kB)
Both files are encrypted and show only a password input with a submit button.
Does anybody know where could they be from and how could they appear in the root?

It's no shame to ask for an answer if all efforts failed.
But it's awful to ask without any effort to find the answer yourself.

Yep, have found this too. Just wanted to announce, that somebody again is testing our websites. So, guys, have a closer look!
