Search Engine redirect & trojan hack
 

First off, I'm very new to website stuff. I have ran many forum's before but only as moderator and admins, doing stuff only in the vb admin panel. Last year I purchased a local site from a friend that was getting out of it. With lots of help from some friends I got the site transfered to a new hosting company and upgraded it a bunch. Recently I haven't been able to have my old friend help, he's been busy, so I'm tackling things by myself.

I have been battling this over and over for a long time. Somehow my forum gets hacked so that when you click on a link from google or yahoo it gets redirected to some short url spam site. Sometimes from google, my avast will say it blocks a trojan.

The site is fine if I just use a bookmark, but once you try to go from a search engine, all heck breaks loose. I have the hosting company scan the site and they always find something like the following..

I have 4.2.0 PL3 installed.

I do have 4 plug ins installed that I didn't install

And as of yesterday (it's been happening way longer)

I do see that the CMPS is out of date, but they want to install it themselves, not just let me download it. They want lots of important info, that I'm not sure about handing out. Is that ok to give them for this, then just change passwords later???

Any other suggestions?? This is a horrible ridiculous thing and I'm sick of just having it cleaned to just have it back later.

Thanks in advance!!

Ok vbadvance only wants admin access to vb and ftp setup for the install. Guess that's not so bad.

I assume you do NOT have vbseo installed as i dont see it in your list of installed programs?

Ive fixed this in the past for some one that had this issue.

1. Move/Delete all current file related to the account.

2. Upload a new .htaccess file & place a deny all in it, w/ the exception of your IP.

3. Upload all new files for all programs installed.

4. Update all the programs on your site.

5. Verify proper permissions on said files.

6. Verify that you have no plugins or hacks that you didnt install in your forums.

Give google 1 or 2 days to reset, you should be all set.

I will have to do some research on that. That is all above my knowledge base...

Thanks for the input. All of that is needed to just stop hacks into my plug ins?
