That's rough. It looks like they still have no idea how their server was compromised, although they appear to be running Frontpage extensions (if the posted scan is accurate), which can be a great way to get bit. I have no idea what the state of Apache's Frontpage extensions are.
If it was a Frontpage exploit though, then that should show up in the server logs. If the server logs don't show anything suspicious, then I'd be more concerned about how it happened and whether any other system files have been touched.
rkhunter (http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/ http://rkhunter.sourceforge.net/) used to be a nice way of getting started with a problem like this, but I haven't used it in a long time and it looks like the project might be dead now.
One of the nice things about using BackupPC on a server is that it can show you when files change for a particular directory, which might make server cleanup easier, depending on how careless the attacker was.
