Many things can change on a network or on a server. Software can be
loaded without your knowledge by administrators, and services that
weren't running before may start on reboot if they've been disabled but
not turned off completely.

The plugins in question have to do with CSS issues on a variety of web
server applications that are also much older. Is there any chance that a
new PHP application has been loaded, how the web server responds to bad
queries or older software been reverted to?
