    Hi
    I have multiple WordPress websites in bluehost hosting. Actually its cloud based. Suddenly maximum number of my wordoress websites are attacked with adware.Malicious ads are occurring in websites and clicking any menu link redirecting to malicious web address. When I investigate. I found wp-vcd, wp-feed and wp-tmp file in wp-includes folders of my websites and also the themes folder functions.php file has malicious codes. All of the websites has same pattern files. Now i want to know how i stop this and secure it for future.i have many websites so if i use any premium plugin it will cost me a huge money i cant afford that. I want some expert suggestions/methods to use and stop that. I am in big trouble. please help
    Thanks

    Hi, I also have security issues in BlueHost that’s why I’m planning to switch to another provider. Just to make sure, you may contact them and ask for their help since your website is currently hosted to them.
