hostgator acc - always getting hacked

[ianccc]

I should have done a search for this but I have a Hostgator reseller acc and my sites continually have been getting coding written to them
below the </html> there are links to all kinds of stuff and now Google has sandboxed some of my sites - this is the second time

is this a common occurance??

any help appreciated

i am with hostgator n recently found couple of links on my static website......watching it closely for some time.......if i c this again, will have to move to pair.com, was surprised when i had to reveal the account name n password to the technical customer support.

Can you send me an example? Is it only one type of site - ie - running on wordpress, or does it happen to all on your account?

mine was a static html page not wordpress

It happened to my brother, everytime he would remove it, it would come back after 24 hours, javascript sending people to affiliate sites, cookie stuffing, anything like that. Hostgator simply said the account was hacked, from my experience this is exclusive to hostgator, they are a reliable, fast hosting company but ive read many stories of this.

ive had this happen to me recently as well....however i cant seem to find this javascript junk anywhere...where in my files do i find this??...below the /html in the index.php file??

Check permissions and for XSS vulnerabilities. Maybe you use some kind of free script which are open for XSS attacks.

I had a static html site and it got hacked on host gator so I moved to godaddy but a friend has had good experience with media temple.

i never had a problem with mine (and i hav a reseller acc too)

Usually when I hear something like this it is from free hosting companies that require a link or banner on your site in exchange for free hosting.

Care to post the code that shows after the <./html>?

How can it be?
