Turned out to be a security hole in Mambo. He has fixed it. Thanks
for your assistance.

Does anyone know anything about this, and if they do - have any
thoughts on how it may have gotten on the server and how to secure
against it in the future? Just trying to help out a friend here.
Without knowing the exact setup of the server, we can't help much.
Any
service running on the system that allows people to access the system
could be the culprit, or it could be weak passwords on the server, it
could even be a piece of poorly written php code that allowed
someone to
get control.
I would suggest that your friend make a list of the things he has
running on his server and spend some time googling for security issues
with those services/programs.
