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
