I have a trojan virus throughout my real estate website. What steps do I need to do to get rid of this, and make sure that it doesn’t happen again? Any advice would be very helpful. I currently have my web address pointing to google so that noone can get a virus by going to my site. hxxp://www.lukebouman.com

You need to disable your link by replacing the “tt” with “xx”.
Looks like your site’s been hacked.
You need to contact your Host as they are primarily responsibile for the security of the sites they host. If they are using .php for example or any other active scripting software it has to be up to date in respect of security updates.
You also need to look as a better password for modifying and uploading your files, etc. at least 8 characters and a mix of numbers, upper and lower case letters.
These types of hacking are usually code injection. Either an iframe tag with a link to another site of an executable file or a tag added somewhere in the page often at the end (to do the same thing).
sorry
you are not hosting the site yourself?
Just had a look at the cache page from google and there doesn’t appear to be any code injection on that page as at 2nd August 2006, so it is relatively recent.
it seems to be your local problem with browser hijacking… i tried to download the index and got the google page, which was absolutely clean…
Maxx, in the first post, doogers stated that he had redirected the page to google so as no one would get infected. Of course that makes it impossible for us to investigate the cause of the problem.
oh, sorry… misunderstood that… now it’s clear
