[thelist] Files being overwritten by encrypted garbage

[Jill Chmielewski]

Hi :)

I am running a Win2K server with IIS 5.0 and files keep getting overwritten 
by encrypted garbage and some of them lose all their size going down to 0 
KB.

Here's an example of the code from an overwritten .html file:

Could this be a virus??
Thanks for any help

p.s.  Running McAfee hasn't picked up any viruses.
