My Website redirects to Malicious sites

Tags:

malware

Good Day

I just uploaded a Wordpress theme onto my Website webserver. Now I tested this theme on my home server before with no problems.

Since it has been on the webserver (at a trusted hosting company), I get url redirects to malicious sites when I am browsing though my website. (I have never given any account details to anyone, account only a week old)

Here is my site: http://evolutionof4.co.za

The malicious sites it links to are: themeforest.net, carolini.net amongst others.

I have scanned all my files on the webserver for malware (with avast), I have also scanned my site with Sucuri Security, but it did not pick up anything.

I don't think it is malware on MY PC, since I got the same problem from another PC on my LAN...

Any help?

Thank you

I had same problem, I resolved it , by checking manually , all the files at the root , means those files which come with wordpress and placed in root, wp-config, wp-settings etc, there I found some melicious script in the file means the code looking encrypted. I removed it. and then check my footer.php here also some 2,3 lines of malicious code. I removed it, then I check it again the problem is same google showing it as malicious site, then I searhed it on google, and found that after removing such code you should submit your site for a review in the webmaster tools of google after a day I reciev a mail.

You check your files, after checking change your username and password of ftp and wp-admin also,

the most important is to submit a review on webmaster tool
