tools4fools Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Got a problem with my webpage, seems someone put some invisible links in the code there. Changed passwords for webhost, ftp protocol, then uploaded clean files from PC. Files on webspace seem to be fine now, no more invisible links. However when i view them in any web browser (after clearing cache) they still show up... Here's the page, the links are all at the bottom of the source code (<!-- link ads start --><DIV style): http://www.tools4fools.info/ Any ideas how to get rid of those links? ***** 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Most odd especially if you resecured your webhost and ftp upload pw Somehow the code is getting squirted afterwards - Have you contacted your host server support to get to the bottom of it? allthebestmusic.net Seems very dodgy and the crafty unwanted embedded links in your page and other webpages would give them a big boost in search engine rankings and a semblance of respectability. http://whois.domaintools.com/allbestmusic.net who seem reluctant to give their details away so you'll need to contact "PRIVACYPROTECT.ORG is providing privacy protection services to this domain name to protect the owner from spam and phishing attacks.

Wicky Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Another thought - Is your website made from a downloaded template with any inbuilt scripts? - As this conceivably could make the ad html appear when the website is uploaded & live Could you fire up golive on your home.site and preview the index.html file in your browser, and recheck the source code Are you on a mac or pc? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 I can't say how to fix your problem, but I can say that I really like your photos. I recently took a 5 month trip through China and Southeast Asia, and wish my photos came out half as well as yours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 Got to be the server. You can get JS includes that spider the DOM and put innerHTML in but it wouldn't show up in the source. So it's your hosts or template providers. Usually the same people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tools4fools Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 Ok, got a new page I'm working on in another directory; that one is using joomla and just checked, the links are there too. So I will look into the template there? Where exactly? ++++ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tools4fools Posted December 28, 2008 Author Share Posted December 28, 2008 http://tools4fools.info/joomla/ The links show once more at the bottom of the source code. Now where can I find the scrip/code to get rid of it...???? It shows only in the start up page, not anywhere else (articles). +++++ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wicky Posted December 28, 2008 Share Posted December 28, 2008 If you've got the ads on two separately made websites (on the live index page) hosted on the same server - then it's likely as Other Means said to be something on the server side unwittingly or deliberately injecting the code. More than a little likely from more digging to be your hosting company Servage Hosting - see below. Contact your server support section to see if they can help track down and remove the cause or simply relocate your sites to a more secure server - if they can't help then I recommend esp for Joomla installs http://www.nativespace.co.uk/ Servage Hosting From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Servage GmbH Type Private company Founded Germany 2004 Headquarters Neustadt 16, Flensburg, Germany Key people Steffan Sondermark Fallesen, Ari Liukko Industry Web hosting service Products Web services Website http://www.servage.net Servage GmbH is a German web hosting provider headquartered in Flensburg, Germany. The company is doing business as Servage Hosting. Criticism Servage has been criticized for overselling its services in recent years to keep up with competition. There have also been large numbers of Servage customers reporting that their sites have been repeatedly hacked, resulting in malicious code being inserted into their web-pages[4] Servage claims that the issue is resolved by their new server operating system ServageOS.
