 * Hi There,
    Last couple of days my website is constantly getting infected by trojan
   virusses. I stripped down the website and taken most of the plugings out… still
   the vulnerability is still there. :-s What is left is:
 * Advanced iFrame
    Akismet Contact Form 7 TablePress BruteProtect Jarida theme.
 * What can be causing this?

 * change your control panel password to something hard.
    same for your WP passwords(
   username, mysql database, wp-config.php password) and every other password you
   might use.
 * Hacker knows your password for him/her/it to be putting stuff in your server.
 * Check the uploads/media.
