			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have recently had this complain from our various <strong>Shared hosting</strong> as well as <strong>Dedicated Server hosting</strong> clients that <strong>MSSQL Webadmin ASP .NET Enterprise Manager</strong> is having a <strong>virus / trojan</strong> on it. When the first complain arrived we too thought that there seems to be a problem with the server and might be <strong>MSSQL Webadmin ASP .NET Enterprise Manager</strong> has got an injection in it. But after receiving too many complains from most of our <strong>dedicated server</strong> clients we started investigating the problem and now we knew that this is something that has happen globally. After viewing <strong>MSSQL Webadmin ASP .NET Enterprise Manager</strong> on <strong>Plesk server</strong> it looked as the picture below:</p>
<p><span id="more-521"></span></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-522" title="mssql-webadmin-showing-trojen-virus" src="http://www.mywebhostingblog.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/mssql-webadmin-showing-trojen-virus-300x219.jpg" alt="mssql webadmin showing trojen virus 300x219 MSSQL WebAdmin ASP.NET ENT Manager in Plesk show Virus" width="300" height="219" /></p>
<p>We understood that the problem was not with the <em><strong>mssql.domain_name</strong></em> link but the virus alert only happened after click on <strong><em>ASP .NET Enterprise Manager, Recomended this site</em></strong>. And the link was:</p>
<p><code>www.referralplanet.com/referral/windows/referralWindow.asp?id=17</code></p>
<p>Since the site was not hosted with us we had a sigh of relief that the problem is not with the server however we thought we still have a security problem if the link has been injected into <strong>ASP .NET Manager</strong> site in IIS, may be due to a security issue with <strong>Plesk control panel</strong>. And after checking several servers we came to know that the problem has happened to the site that is recommended on <strong>MSSQL Webadmin site </strong>and not the server.</p>
<p>If you want to remove this link from your server as well as from the <strong>MSSQL WebAdmin</strong> site then follow the steps below:</p>
<p>1. Login into the server through RDP with Administrator user.<br />
2. Go to <em><strong>D:\inetpub\vhosts\sqladmin\mssql\app</strong></em><br />
3. Open the <em><strong>navbar.aspx</strong></em> page in notepad<br />
4. Go to <em><strong>line number 119</strong></em> and remove the code below:</p>
<p><code>&lt;!-- Begin ReferralPlanet.com Referral Script --&gt;<br />
&lt;a onclick="refWindow=window.open('http:// www.referralplanet.com/referral/windows/referralwindow.asp?id=18','referralWindow' ,'width=350,height=520,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no,resizable=yes'); refWindow.focus(); return false;" target=_blank href="http:// www.referralplanet.com/referral/windows/referralWindow.asp?id=17"&gt;<br />
&lt;IMG alt="Click Here To Tell A Friend" src="images/tellafriend.gif" border=0&gt;&lt;/A&gt;<br />
&lt;!-- Begin ReferralPlanet.com Referral Script --&gt;</code></p>
<p>5. Save the file and exit.</p>
<p>This problem must have infected millions of computer in the world. Let see when chinese hacker stop putting their shit on other&#8217;s website and get mature.</p>
