Site Hacked / Blocked from Google - How to identify infected files and clean ftp
«

Recently my site was blocked from google (again). After visiting my site through google's sitebuilder tools, I believe I have identified the issue. It looks like a malicious file "wp-stats[1].htm" is getting downloaded to my pc when I visit my latest post. I quickly deleted this file from the FTP and updated wordpress.
When I visit the site, it looks like the malicious file is still downloading. Is there a way to determine how this exploit installed a file on the ftp and prevent it in the future? Is there a way I can run a virus scan on the ftp to determine other accected files?
Thanks in advance for your support.

It looks like I have malicious script added to one of my posts somehow.
Problem is now, the site, control panel, and ftp are down. I cannot even ping the site. It looks like Lunar may have blocked my account due to the activity. Ill check on it tommrrow.

I have gotten the site back up and running. I updated all the codebase and should be good to go. It seems that LP blocked my home IP after I hit the FTP so many times to determine what files were infected.
Thanks again.... Time to renew that account.
