yah, it's really not worth it for me to go in and search around for stuff he might have put on there.. its too expensive..
i'd suggest you find a way to make nice with the guy.. it's a lot cheaper than what it would cost to hire me.. and then there are really no guarantees. if he was very web/server savvy, you may be forever compromised until you move off that server and start fresh..
thanks for the PM, but i don't think i want to get into this mess..
