This is actually one of the things I specialize in. I spend a lot of time, on an almost daily basis, repairing infected Wordpress installs. There are several things you need to do. The most important is to delete and replace all of the core Wordpress files. I've been running in to a lot of issues where the files are placed directly in the wp-include directory. The other issues is to scan through all of the theme and plugin files to manually remove the infection. That sounds labor intensive but it really isn't. I would also check the database as well. A few time I've seen the injected code written directly in to the database. There are a few other things to look for but it normally takes less than a few hours to search out and fix the problem. I have 10 years development experience with Wordpress. I can definitely fix this for you. Thanks, -Dave

Hi, Respected Client, I am system administrator and programmer by profession. I have checked ClamAV report. It looks like this isn't a single website. There are multiple websites which are effected by this trojan. expertsalescopy.com. This website is effected badly with this trojan. It will not go from your websites by removing its code from your server. Though, the first step is to remove trojan and then need to identify the main file which is adding this code to the other files. The second step will be disinfecting server and websites from this trojan. I will charge 100$ for fixing this issue on your server and you will have 5 days to check it and release funds. The main cause of these trojans and code injections are ftp clients. If you are uploading files on your server, please make sure, your own computer isn't effected by this virus. Kindly, communicate with me via freelancer.com chat and I will be happy to answer your questions. I am waiting for you to initiate chat with me. Thanks, Best Regards, NeOLiO

Hello, We are a team of two people - a system administrator and a tech/customer support person, both working in a medium-sized web hosting company for the past 7+ years. We have a lot of experience with shared hosting, VPS and dedicated servers with Linux/Apache/cPanel as our company has servers in 5 datacenters around the world. As WordPress is one of the most popular scripts, we have to deal with infected websites all the time. I checked the scans, so probably the best way to fix this issue is to install a fresh copy of WordPress and connect it to the old database. The database should also be checked in case that whoever did this, has also created an admin account to log in and upload the malicious files over and over again. All passwords should also be updated along with the themes and plugins as any of the ones you use right now may be outdated and may have a security hole that allows this person to hack your website even if it is cleaned. Best Regards, Roumen
