Hello everybody.

I apologize in advance, as I am new to the IT field.

I'm looking for assistance in removing a virus/malware from my companies WordPress page.

A customer of mine sent me an email stating:

" AVG said that your page had one of these:
http://www.avgthreatlabs.com/webthreats/info/javascript-obfuscation/
It said (type 156) too "

I'm in charge of the web development and HAVE noticed some awkward appearance changes to the site, such as random black boxes implanted in the wordpress layout (not the actual site itself).

I downloaded and have run a systems AVG scan with zero results for infection, is there a way to scan the WordPress site?

Thanks in advance.

-George
