This particular vector of attack also won't succeed again, for three separate reasons (better patching, appliance protecting against mailbombs, and the targeted domain being moved to Gmail anyway). Thus, I think all is safe now -- but PLEASE let me know if there are any further difficulties!!! Thanks, CAM The operating system recompile happened last night, and things seem cleaned up now.

Relevant to your second bullet on malware, a colleague experienced a winrsya.exe trojan after I recommended a recent DBMS2 blog entry to him. Fortunately, our antivirus software discovered and quaranteed the file. Good luck cleaning up your site. I would like to feel comfortable recommending your content again.
