Today in IIS I came into my server and all of my drive letters were changed from D: to E:?

Hacked I guess? Anyone ever have this happen to them?

Windows 2003 Server, only 2 drives in the Machine C:, D:. I have not touched the machine and the Drive Letter itself did not change just the setting in IIS for site Home Directory that point to it.

IE:

D:\websites\mywebsite.com 

was changed to

E:\websites\mywebsite.com

  • Are these drives local to each server, or a network share mounted as a drive?

Have you added any drives at all, for instance having a USB drive plugged in during the boot operation? That might cause drive letter reassignment.

You may be able to change the relevant partition back from E: to D: using the disk manager in the computer management control panel.

It would be worth adding to your question the version+variant of Windows you have installed and and details you have about your drive arrangement (i.e. the info displayed in the disk management screen).
