  Looks like it was downloaded via wget.

  Run "grep wget /var/log/apache/access.log" - that should give you the
 IP address of the attackign host.

  It might be worth posting any matching lines; that way somebody might
 be able to tell you which script (cgi/php/etc) was used as the attack
 vector.

  Definitely a time to wipe, reinstall and import your backups though.

  Indeed, but we need to find out what allowed them to do so -
  presumably something insecure running upon your host.  Untill you know
  what it was reinstalling will not prevent it from happening again.
