For a while now, I've been seeing reports of a malware attack on linux 
servers which encrypts a bunch of files and then demands a bitcoin payment 
to get a decryption key.  Most of the articles don't mention just *how* 
these attacks get in, but this one has a bit more information:

Has anyone had any infestations from this yet?
