My site here: [url]http://www.calciofiesso.%201957.it[/url] is down (home not uploading) and Google (and other browser) has a malware warning for it. What's the problem?
Here pics of the root directory that seems strange to me...

Google says that your site has been hacked. Unless you know exactly what to do, you should seek professional advice/help.

Re: Malware warning and site down
I'm a professional, but without experience for Joomla. May you have any idea of what to do? An hint?
The site is recoverable?

Unfortunately I'm not that experienced with Joomla myself. I would suggest waiting for a Joomla professional to come online. However, these links may also be of interest to you:Tom1884 wrote:I'm a professional, but without experience for Joomla. May you have any idea of what to do? An hint?

Re: Malware warning and site down
There are several files in that image that I am sure are part of the problem. However, the bigger issue is there may be root scripts that are likely creating those. You need to hunt those down and the only sure fire way I have found to do that is run a search through the command line for some value. Usually it is either a value in one of the created files or something that you can see through the source code on the front end.

Re: Malware warning and site down
I see many 0kb files in your list, those are hack files or site files that have been emptied.
Read through the sticky posts at the top of this Security forum for more info on cleaning your site.
Do you have a backup know to be safe, if so empty your site and then upload the backup, do the same with your database. Check for any cron jobs added to the site in the cPanel, change all your passwords.
