RE: 404 messages pointing to a strange location

Based on some googling, and finding similar vulnerabilities [1], it
seems likely someone was just running a very wide vulnerability scan
against your server. If you use any pre-built applications like phpBB
or osCommerce, you should make sure they are up-to-date.
