"Attackers have hacked the servers of Australian Web hosting provider
MD Web Hosting (mdwebhosting.com.au), embedding malicious code to spawn
"link farms" on its customers' sites, according to news site,
Australian IT (australianit.news.com.au)."
"The hackers gained access to about five servers which failed to have
the correct security profiles. To make matters worse, the company's IP
blocking systems and firewalls were not up to par, says Najda. The
issue, which was resolved earlier this week, affected only between five
to ten percent of its 20,000 customers, he says."
