I apprecaite proactive'ness of companies when a breach of integrity may have been found. Should be interesting on whether or not they find any evil scripts during their audit... Thanks for the share.
As a past customer of theplanet I think that was a good decision they made to prevent such activity and the further security patching to prevent it from happening again.
