Thanks for the helpful suggestions and several that initially alerted
me. The host is ace.net and they have taken down the site (shortly
after I sent my warning to this list). I have a simplified front
page up, now. No links are present until I clear and restore the
objects of the links.
I've had a couple suggestions of on-line sw that could remove the
hacker, but that would require the website to stay active. I'm
pretty sure my host will not want an outside site accessing their
internal files with a program. But they have a good staff that is
working with me on this. Their response to my alert to them was in
minutes of my contact.
This virus appears to redirect all links inside my website. Links to
other sites do not appear affected. .doc, jpg, .xls links also seem
fine. Only kl7uw.com/xxxx.htm or .html are corrupted.
Unfortunately, the Alaska VHF-Up Group qsl.net website, which I act
as webmaster, was also hacked. It is much simpler and all that I had
to do was upload uncorrupted html files to replace the bad ones.
Hacker read my FTP client passwords to access the websites.
