As a postscript to this, a worm is hitting the phpBB forum software.
It uses google to find targets. pcHDTV.com was vulnerable because
google has them indexed (google search "powered by phpBB
site:pchdtv.com" to see how the worm found them). The "13" means it's
the 13th infection of that particular instance of the worm.
The poor pcHDTV fellas just can't catch a break. Hope they had backups...
If you run phpBB sites...well, I'm sure you already know.
