My server at http://emerge.ed.psu.edu was hacked into. The IP address of the hacker resolves to a Romanian site. BUT, as we all know, hackers can travel through several sites before they land on yours. The server showed up in an IRC bot, with an indication that it was compromised and available. So, a trusted "white hat" hacker contacted Penn State with evidence that mine and 60+ other servers on the Penn State network were on this list of compromised servers. Our telecommunications people put a filter on the network that shut down my server and all others that were hacked. My server is not allowed online again until it is fixed. This fix will occur tonight and tomorrow (yawn!). No damage done to the world by the compromise, but lots of harm could result if left untreated. Ahhhh, cyberspace!
