Doorways Sneak To Non-Default Ports of Hacked Servers

UnmaskParasites writes "To drive traffic to their online stores, software pirates hack reputable legitimate websites injecting hidden spammy links and creating doorway pages. Google's search results are seriously poisoned by such doorways. Negligence of webmasters of compromised sites makes this scheme viable — doorways remain unnoticed for years. Not so long ago, hackers began to re-configure Apache on compromised servers to make them serve doorway pages off of non-default ports, still taking advantage of using established domain names."

Would it have cost you more than a few words to tell us?

And I won't even get into timothy's laziness. How much effort does it take to write "buncha jerkfaces" and hit "accept"? If he were an actual editor, he'd probably tweak the article. But no, he's a lazy ass.
