You should calm down. Just because this was on your site doesn't mean that ALL SERVERS AND FOLDERS WITH 777 have been affected. If a newer user looks and it's not there, they may freak out because they don't see it and think something worse is going on. Mass panicing everyone because this showed up on your site isn't a good idea. In fact, it's more likely that your site had insecurities in it to allow this, or the server you are only had an insecurity in one of the site's it's hosting which allowed this. This does not mean the whole data center is compromised or broken.

After reading that link, I didn't see anything in there saying that there was a hole in the server, but several saying it was likely the software...including the first post.
