Re: possible frontpage exploit?

My company has had two websites defaced within the last week.  Both times
the defacement seems to take place withing frontpage.  Here is the the
actual defacement taking place:

ascta014p151.onda.com.br - - [12/Jul/2001:02:54:05 -0500] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 1279 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 
5.5; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)"

If you look, the attacker is using requests for "rbteam1.jpg" to see
whether he is successful.  The machine in question is running solaris 8,
the webserver is apache 1.3.14 w/ the FP 2000 server extensions installed.
My question is, has anyone seen anything like this?  Is this a frontpage
exploit, or something else?  If it's something else, I'd sure like to know
what it is.

Thanks

You should try to contact Onda.
Onda is a ISP here in Brazil.  
Unfortunally it is not too resposible for the action of its users
we have a few incidents with tham and Onda doesn't really care.

Anyways, here are they number:
(55) -  0800-437878   (toll free)
(55) - 41 - 322-7766

Good luck.
