your best bet as far as wu-ftpd is concerned,
upgrade the packages 9and even get the security stuff).

also, in your ftpaccess file, change the check password from
"warn" to "enforce".

also, check to make sure your libs in the lib folder of your
ftp site hasn't been changed as well.

anything else would require more expertise than I currently
have available atm.
