I had a weird experience with wordpress installation as it was infected with trojan. All my index.php and index.html files were inserted with a encoded text. I also saw some huge texts written into my cgi-bin directory. Also when I opened my site I used to get trojan alert from my NAV. Moreover after a while the site used to refresh itself and redirect me to some other sites such as cherry.tv. I was stunned to see how this can happen on a unix host. My wordpress site at :: fullSAP :: SAP Technology Mega Forum went for a toss and I had to migrate the website to vbulletin. All my hardwork on the initial wordpress blog is gone. Initially i thought vbulletin is only for discussion and there is not much scope for addons and extending the capabilities as in wordpress. Only when I started using Vbulletin I came to know that there are hell number of mods available to extend the capabilities of the forum. I like vbulletin and stick to it for all my other sites as well.
I guess I had the weird experience with wordpress because of the security flaws in the software. Anyone have any suggestion how best to avoid such things when using Vbulletin.
