Not detecting SEO Spam – MW:SPAM:SEO?v011

Hi,

First of all I would like to Thankyou for a really nice plugin. I got my website infected with malware and when I scanned with Sucuri, it shows that it’s infected with SEO SPAM. The results of scan can be viewed here:
http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/www.7diagonals.com

When I scanned with the plugin, I found a file named ‘file_upload_include.php’ in wp-content directory, which the plugin identified as backdoor script and it was indeed so. Though it automatically fixed it and I deleted it, the SEO SPAM is still here and scanning the site doesn’t identify this malicious spam despite the definitions of plugin are up to date.

Can you please look into this and see why it’s not detecting ‘MW:SPAM:SEO?v011‘ ? Thanks a lot in advance 🙂

The payload of infected code is:
```
<html>
<div style='left: -3565px; position: absolute; top: -4812px'>
<a href="http://www.thenorthface.us.com">The North Face</a>

It looks like you already got rid of it. Sucuri actually caches their scan results so after you click “Force a Re-scan” to clear the cache Sucuri shows the site is clean.

Let me know if there’s anything else.

Aloha, Eli
