: Titles in Google results contain spammy prefixes Over the past couple of weeks, we've noticed that the search results from Google for some of our drupal-powered sites are having their page titles

Over the past couple of weeks, we've noticed that the search results from Google for some of our drupal-powered sites are having their page titles hijacked somehow. An example would be:

free streaming porn - [Actual page title]

There are other variations of the porn prefix, that's one of the more tame ones. I looked in the databases for each of these sites and the titles haven't actually been changed or anything along those lines. When you click on the result to visit the page everything looks normal (sans porn stuff). Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction as to what the cause of this is?

Problem: Drupal website page titles has "live streaming porn" text in prefix in only google search results

Solution: Visit drupal base directory for these 2 files index.php and install.php hackers have written a function GLOBAL $wehaveitagain; remove the complete function. Login to google webmaster tools and submit the URL's which you want to remove only from cache; revisit google webmaster once you see success message for submitted links and resubmit the URL's. Check if your sitemap.xml and robots.txt are manipulated by hackers if so create fresh XML and .txt files and upload it to your server.

Once google re-indexes pages your site will be normal.

Are you sure that the virus is not on your end?

Have you tried other PCs and perhaps even other networks (in case your proxy is infected)?
