Weird html files uploaded.. lots of them - Joomla! Forum - community, help and support
i'm not trying fix happened, trying general understanding of has happened.
after figuring out site had been compromised, deleted everything. can rebuild.
if can me understand:
go google.com , search site:wichitaoilpainting.com (i won't post here)
about 2 or 3 pages in, you'll start seeing lot of warez / porn type links , show in "contents" directory, joomla installed. how discovered site had been compromised. visiting site, wouldn't know had happened. did think unusual cpanel reporting more , more disk space being used, blamed forum since steadily growing.
i've done google searches on of these html files , found other sites comprimised same way, , i'm not sure these other sites running joomla. maybe it's php problem?

filezilla hack? computer virus?
