Default Possible Virus on Main Page?

Starting a couple of days ago I've noticed that every time I visit CP's main page (www.calgarypuck.com) my AVG software picks up what appears to be a couple of viruses.

Spoiler!


It's not happening to me on any other site, its only happening on CP's main page. I've also checked my computer for other viruses and malware and I'm clean.

There might have been an issue a while back, I actually recently updated Wordpress to the latest version to make sure there was no vulnerabilities, maybe try clearing your cache and trying again.

Unless I missed some things when I cleaned out the site, let me know if you still see it after clearing the cache. More details from "more info" might help too.

Clearing the cache did not work.

The "More Info" link takes me to this page, which is not especially helpful.

Hm yeah, if you hover over the entries does it give you the full path to the file? Something after \cache2\? Knowing what file it thinks is bad would help track it down.

I tried an online site scanner and it says there's something wrong, but the code it says is faulty doesn't actually show up for me when I view the site.

The only thing I can think of is when I cleaned out the site last time I didn't bother with any of the templates that weren't in use, I could try deleting those.

Oh I see what you mean. Here's the full path line.

Ah that doesn't help me much. Though I might have found something, give me a minute.

EDIT: I was hoping Firefox might store the cached file in something hinting at the website file name, but it doesn't.

I don't suppose it has anything to do with the folder named "doomed" does it?

Lol I hope not. I found something that I thought I'd cleaned out but seems to be back somehow, I will have to do a more exhaustive search.

Sweet, ok I know what it is now. I don't know how it got back in, I thought it was just because we were running a super old version of Wordpress and I updated it but maybe during the update it got back in somehow (i.e. it touched files I didn't clean because I didn't think we were using them).

Ok should be removed.

I checked the logs and I can't see anything obvious that correlates to the timestamp of when the file changed. Have to keep digging I guess.
