Hello,
This is a courtesy e-mail to let you know that your web site http://kinshipstudies.org/ appears to have been compromised.
FAQ: http://www.microneil.com/documentation/securityAlert.shtml
While researching malicious content for our anti-spam company, ARM Research, we discovered that your web server is hosting a link to spam or malicious content.
The link pattern(s) we found were:
http://kinshipstudies.org/wp-content/uploads/2006/03/oliver.php
It is likely that your server is also being used in other ways you haven’t noticed yet.
We recommend that you take immediate action to secure your server and stop these attacks.
The following steps are a good start:
1. You should immediately change the passwords to your servers and replace them with strong, random passwords. If you’re not already using a secure password manager then you should do so.
2. You should remove the offending content and audit the rest of your site for additional content that you did not authorize. One good approach might be to wipe your server clean and upload a fresh copy of your web site from a clean backup.
3. You should verify that your server has not been compromised in other ways — For example, you should check for back-doors, viruses or other malware, and any unauthorized accounts that might have been created. In some cases it may be safest to move to a fresh “known good” hosting environment / server.
4. You should verify that the operating system and other software on your server is up to date, that all of the latest security patches have been applied, and that you have an appropriate firewall in place.
5. You should also check all of the computers and devices you use to maintain your web site to see if they have been compromised. It’s possible that is how the attacker gained access to your web site and possibly other systems we have not yet discovered.
Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
Best,

Probably not the best way to inform you, but your webspace is being used by a phisher. Several files within the kinshipstudies.org/wp-content/uploads/2009:
directory redirect to sites like “canadian pharma” etc and the links to these files have been sent out in mass emails. Your welcome.
Why did did I receive an email from myself and why did it go out to all the people in my address book, with a link to your site?
Apologies to all the readers who received spam from my website. My website had been hacked and it took me a while to clean it up. Hopefully it won’t happen again. Thank you for all the alerts.
