 * Hi,
    our website is bringing up 2 malicious virus’ on AVG’s site scanner page.
   All other sites such as Sucuri return no problems.
 * I’ve checked the index, footer & functions php files but can’t find anything 
   and i’m now really struggling on what to do next, being very new to this.
 * Can anyone help with tips on how to find where the problems are and how to stop
   future infections? I’ve got Bulletproof security installed and we use Cloudflare
   aswell.
 * Thank you.

 * [@dreamzgold](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dreamzgold/),
    You too have
   to follow the links posted above and look for malicious code injections and totally
   cleanup your site. There is no easy way for us to help you locate where the files
   were infected.
