Have I been hacked?

Post by encodeme »

Hi,
a folder called .sforzand keeps appearing on my server. Even when I delete it, it re-appears after a few days.
I don't recognise it and it doesn't appear in my other installation.
Have I been hacked??
thanks
cyberman

If you are using your webhosting provider's Control Panel to work on CMSMS folders, maybe some of their application adds this folder. Once "/.smiles/" folder appeared on some server, and later we found out that one of the CPanel's application adds it.
