Website Redirects? was created by fbrace
Joomla 2.58
CB 1.9
CBSubs 3.0.0

Everyday Joomlawatch is coming up with multiple page views that all lead to the homepage on my website, www.veteranscaucus.org . Google has sent me website compromised notices.

/?v=bad641bf900683cb
/?v=6a47fea69b16c5cc
/?v=37b1668908e434d2

Google fetch of some pages has a javascript with them embeded.

><script type="text/javascript" src=" www.veteranscaucus.org/components/com_comprofiler/js/tabpane.min.js?v=6a47fea69b16c5cc ">

Are these legimate calls or has someone got into my site. I did all that was recommended to tighten security when hack first noticed in Aug. But these still occur

Those are legitimate calls. No idea why you or Google thinks they're hacked. We append a version parameter to the end of the URL so we can do internal versioning of CB header files, which is perfectly acceptable. That file in particular provides the JS for profile tabs.

You should not have /?v=VERSION though as that implies CB is adding a file to the header that doesn't exist. Reviewing your sites source it seams CBs jQuery files are missing. Did you delete CBs jQuery files or something of the sort. CB is trying to append the below.

/components/com_comprofiler/js/jquery-1.5.2/jquery-1.5.2.js

I've edited the title of your topic as you clearly have not been hacked. Please reframe from such bold statements as they can very easily destroy our good name that we've worked very hard to establish while being completely and utterly uncalled for. In any event there is a hack you need to contact us directly as to avoid security outbreak for others, but again you were not hacked.

Google did not think those calls were a problem. I jusr did not understand where they were coming from and could not find on the site. I am getting daily searchs for cialis, viagra, etc.

The jQuery question above, if I compare my site to a copy of Com_profiler files, they match exeactly in the jquery-1.5.2 subdirectory.

You've something installed or something misconfigured that's causing CBs jQuery files to not be found. Navigating to the supplied URL in my above reply I can reach your CB jQuery just fine though. Disable non-core CB plugins 1 by 1 and review the header of your home page until /?v=VERSION changes back to pointing to CB properly as it should be as follows.

domain/components/com_comprofiler/js/jquery-1.5.2/jquery-1.5.2.js?v=VERSION

If issue persists repeat the step with non-core Joomla system plugins and see if that resolves it.

OK will give this a shot.

Is there an easier way to view the page header than using something like google fetch??

Thanks,

Use Chrome or Firebug for Firefox then press F12 and review the <head> from there. You'll see where it's adding /?v=VERSION right after CB begins its jQuery namespacing JS.
