thanks
the google warning page seems to say it directs you to some place you do
not want to go to
however what is driving me nuts it trying to figure out how to get it to
STOP being inserted into my web pages (i have alot of sites as subsites on
the remote server).
it is only being inserted into the index.html pages(and a different one is
being inserted into the index.php pages) but it shows up in index.html
page in any subdirectory.
so i spent hours yesterday getting each page to my local computer, editing
it and sending it back clean. within 4 or five hours the pages were
reinfected.
so this AM I went to the remote site and turned php OFF for all the
subsites. i also backed up my dokuwiki blog and my two wordpress blogs to
the local computer and deleted the wiki installations on in my sites on
the remote computer
fortunately i do not really need php for most of my web presence and it
it probably just as easy for me to make my blog essays into web pages.
for my sites i also made all the files read only.
i am waiting to see if that stops the reinfection
i have not had a successful conversation with the tech support at the
remote IHP yet. I think they are very very busy dur to this.
strangely the three sites using server side includes and index.shtml pages
have not been hit.
advice and sugestion are really welcome
