Hi there

A web server we use has been recently compromised by a trojan. Since then no https requests are working for the server.

The server is Windows 2000 and IIS 5.0

We tried uninstalling/reinstalling IIS but to no avail.

Do anyone have any ideas/ suggestions for what else we could look at.

A site example is - try and put https:// in front and you get the "Cannot Find Server" message when using IE, and when using Mozilla you get a "Connection Refused" message.

I am not the server techo for our company , merely thought I'd post the question to see if I can help out.

Any suggestions greatfully received.

Thanks

Number one, you should ALWAYS RUN VIRUS PROTECTION!!! But I really don't have to tell you that now :) . Ok, do you know the name of the trojan? If you do know the name of the trojan, then I would suggest going to to check if they have a trojan uninstaller available for you. It is likely that the trojan has not been completely removed, or something has been removed that is required in order to make SSH connections. Hope this helps a bit...
