Well if Xisto/Xisto haven't changed anything since I was last here, I've never seen them been attacked, and why somebody would go just into your account and give you a virus is beyond me, I'm sure your computer has a virus/keylogger and that is how it happened, or somehow somebody guessed your password right, so I wouldn't find it hard to believe that this is on your end...

so if i have a virus on my computer and i entered my site thru ftp it can get infected? so how to get rid of that thing there? like a fresh install or something is that possible?keylogger? dont think so i use password manager. are they any safe? and password generators.. but i am infected too right now..windows one care and kaspersky spotted a trojan.

first you want to fresh start your computer after you do a virus check with avg, norton, or whatever you have, then you want to change all your passwords, maybe freshstart your website or at least install a backup of what you had. That is what I would do anyways.

Just for clarification, can I know how you can say that your site is affected by virus?

Although i haven't experienced your dilemma and the cause remains vague to me, the first thing i would do is download Kaspersky trial as it is very thorough. A prior warning before installing - if you have ever had AVG installed i believe you will have to delete registry values left over from an AVG uninstall. Kaspersky will continue to refuse installation until this is properly completed. I would also install spybot if you haven't already and another malware program such as malwarebytes. From there scan everything (including your backup). Do a fresh copy on the server. If problems persist then it would perhaps be wise to contact Xisto/Xisto if you haven't already. Sorry that's all i can offer.

me once had some kind of problem with viruses, and I saw some really weird pages(porn and spam) getting indexed with my other site pages, and I found those and removed manually through ftp. I am not sure, what happened, but maybe you should try to get a good Antivirus on your computer such as kaspersky and also a good spyware, and never go to lots of sites who contain crack things or similar behavior software. And since I upgraded to Vista my computer has always less problems regarding security, viruses, spyware.

aha.. i found something fishy very rotten fish in my access logs im not so sure what is is though im fairly new to this.. there was a weird refer on the last 300 visitor stats before the site got modified..the referer came from roidsmal.com/links_catalog.php im not really sure what is that.. if its a referer it came from that one right.there is very very little traffic here so getting around the visitors aint that hard..
