In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???As a follow up,
I completed Milmor’s steps this morning, ran the google test and the website comes out clean.
Does this mean it malware will be back/site get hacked again? I don’t know but clearly all of the answers in response to my post have helped a great deal.
Thanks again, entertaining as well.

In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???Talk about straight forward answers and directions…
After trying to understand what all of you are saying I decided to take the initial steps that Milmor stated about re-installing and moving to 20 11. this was due to it clearly being easy to understand, if it does not work then it appears I have to delete my entire website and rebuild it from the ground up.
Does every website owner have to rebuild their entire website if they get hacked? Seems like a stretch to me considering all the websites getting hacked no?
I do wish however that the direction I was given was at least a little more easy to understand and without the jargon. I still do not know if my question has been answered or if I am doing the right thing. What I do know is that CHMOD, FTP leak or 755/644 does not register with me as I don’t understand what they are or mean. I’m sure the answers would have been much more useful if they were written in language that people without and IT background would understand.
Cheers.

In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???And if it is to just simply delete the version – how do I delete it in a way that it takes everything with it?

In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???Last question,
If I am rebuilding the entire website, do I simply delete this and reload another version of InFocus?

In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???I appreciate all the feedback – It sounds though that I am going to have to completely rebuild the website to make sure that this does not happen again, is this correct?

In reply to: InFocus malware – how do I find an delete it???Thanks Milmor…but from your email I have a few more questions.
I don’t know what or where my “index” page is?
Is my IE a “modern browser”?
How do I find the malware? Is it a different color or something? Does it just look like everything else? Seems like a needle in a haystack to me.Also, delete via ftp? I can’t seem to find /wp-content/themes/yourheme/header.php – where is this located on my website?
Where would I find “wp_head”?I apologize if this doesn’t make any sense – I am a complete beginner and I don’t understand what or where to start.
Cheers.
