Wow....

Thanks Sheila.

This script was loaded into many directories, some of which did not start out writeable. Could someone have changed all my permissions

I suspect the directories were writable as the user the webserver runs as, and a vulnerability in one of your scripts was exploited to get the file on the server.

What kind of hidden links should I look for, and what might they do?

Most likely commented-out blocks of links to dodgy places, do a view source on your pages and look for anything that shouldn't be there.

Also, they might have created a .htaccess file which causes non-existent URLs to be handled by passing them to a script they've uploaded.

Have a read of the discussion on the URL Sheila posted, and do some Googling yourself for rssnews.ws, that should give you a good idea of what to look for.

Cheers
