Beeing a new member, and this my 1st post, I would like to say a friendly "HI!" to everyone!
I'm in charge of administrating a simple PHP website. No fancy e-commerce scripts, no fancy authentification methods, just your average pic and script.
In the last few days everytime I try to acces the website my Antivirus (Kaspersky IS 2010) returns a disturbing message :
Virus/Trojan found : Exploit.JS.Agent.avl , and blocks me from viewing the website.
After downloading some random files, of random extensions .jpg, .html, .php etc. I've discovered that this evil-keep-me-busy-from-my-daily-routines virus, infects only .HTML files and .php Files.
Since the antivirus can't disinfect them, and the website wasn't made by me, and I'm not familiar with the links and everything, I can't just delete the infected file and start writting the code from scratch.
Can you guys help me ? with a good method of removing viruses from .php files ?
From what my brain has told me, it should be an evil script injected in the .php file (probably a few lines of evil code).
My solution : Disable antivirus, open .PHP file, look for nasty code, delete it and copy/overwrite it back on the website (via FTP).
If you could help me, it would be really nice...anything, advices, tips, even better, solutions!
Thank you in advance!
