Likely got infected by a bot. Did you whitelist lockdown the server?

Instructions for previous versions: http://viciwiki.com/index.php/DGG

Note that installing DGG is not required. The whitelist instructions precede installation. So you can just stop after the whitelist is done. DGG isn't tested on Vicibox 9 yet (At least I don't think it has been, I haven't checked with that department, lol).
