Hello everyone,

I'm not sure if this group is still active, it looks like it's been
taken over by spam bots. Anyway, my website has been hijacked.
Whenever I click on the search result from google or yahoo, i'm
redirected to a virus scanner website that pretends to scan my
computer. Going to the site normally is no problem, the virus only
shows up when I'm directed there from a search engine. If you'd like
to see exactly what I'm talking about search "john horton murray" in
google or yahoo and follow the link, then compare that to what happens
when you go to johnhortonmurray.net directly.

I've done some research and I think it may be some of my pictures that
are infected. I had an online cms tool that I built and used myself,
and I think it's possible the security wasn't strong enough. Other
than that, I have no idea how someone could have gotten into the site.
I'm not even sure they got in, why would the problem only happen when
directed from search engines? I'm sure someone else has had this
problem, and would GREATLY appreciate some help.
