Hey guys,

My hosting company just notified me that they were updating mysql database and discovered that my vbulletin 3.8 forums has been blacklisted on Google due to malware.

How can I find the malware infected files and get rid of them?

Thanks

Each malware is unique so there's no single way to find malware.

I'll refer you to 2 guides that you can use to attempt and find malware:
