 * Hi
 * I did not create this WordPress website, but I’m tasked to fix some errors.
 * See page: [http://www.hysasystems.org/?page_id=61&goog=1](http://www.hysasystems.org/?page_id=61&goog=1)
 * The sidebar is at the bottom instead of on the right. Can you see the error in
   the code:
 *     ```
       <?php
       /*
       Template Name: Students Page

           curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL,$url);
           // don't download content
           curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_NOBODY, 1);
           curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_FAILONERROR, 1);

 * I think if you correct the markup errors (166 Errors and 4 warnings, [see HERE](http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hysasystems.org%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&ss=1&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.3)),
   the side bar problem will be over.
 * Additionally, you may look for CSS errors using Firebug and FF.

 * BTW, it seems the malware can be from the Ultimate Fade-in slideshow (v2.4). 
   You may delete the script and check again if malware is reported (though it is
   not a real/ guaranteed solution, and the infection may still reappear).

   Ultimate Fade-in slideshow (v2.4)”

 * From your site. See at the bottom of the script picked up by [http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/www.hysasystems.org](http://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/www.hysasystems.org)
 * It is script. Type the name of the script on Google search, you can see the site
   distributing it. Possibly, one of the plugins used by you is using that script.

   the javascript is authored by Dynamic Drive.
 * None of the current plugins are authored by this company. Is it safe to assume
   that the javascript was left there by a previous plugin? If so, could the javascript
   file simply be deleted by ftp?

 * You may try it. But it is not a safe solution. It may still either be hiding 
   somewhere or leaving loopholes for backdoor entry.
