Sorry to tell you this but I believe quite easily that your site was hacked.

In ten minutes of analysis from here I can see that even a script kiddy can
get into your server.  FreeBSD with no security fixes applied past it's
release date.  Even Apache missing the latest security patches.
Apache/1.3.12 (Unix) FrontPage/5.0.0.0 mod_ssl/2.6.6 OpenSSL/0.9.6a on
FreeBSD

If my NT box was running I could hand you your passwords in less than 4 hours.

The bright side is the kiddies are not talking about hacking your site
anyplace on the net.
