# Virus in WordPress?

 * I have several WordPress websites and when I edit a page this code is added into
   the code of the page:
    <div id=”raIcons” style=”display: none;”><img class=”raImg”
   src=”[https://dfsuknfbz46oq.cloudfront.net/p/icons/evince.png&#8221](https://dfsuknfbz46oq.cloudfront.net/p/icons/evince.png&#8221);
   alt=”” width=”32″ height=”32″ /></div>
 * I suspect that it appears when I change from Visual to Code view or the opposite.
   I have tried virus scans but with no luck. What to do? Any suggestions?

 * Jmariamohlin,
 * Did you ever find a solution for this issue? I just had the same issue show up
   in my site and the URL popped up in my Broken Links Checker report. I can’t seem
   to find any information on what it is and it doesn’t show up in any virus/malware
   scans. The code is tagged at the end of my page and can only be seen in the code
   tab of the editor.
 * Thanks much! -JJ
