Those both sound like home-grown cgi scripts... especially author.exe.  What
the hell is that?  .exe?  I hope that someone doesn't think that a program
compiled on a linux machine needs to have that extension.

I would put some restrictions on what users are allowed to run on the
server, and for the time being, until you can get ahold of the user I'd turn
off the offending sites ability to use CGIs.
