It was brought to my attention that if you search for the name of one of our directors (with the intent to find there profile page on our site) They come up as the first link in most search engines as you would expect but the link text is just pure spam.

the three search string I have tested on Google, Bing, Ask, and Yahoo have all returned similar results.

Here is a list of the search strings:

Paolo rossi futex

Mark rossi futex

Marco rossi futex

Dan Goldberg futex

Any idea what might be causing this I have searched through as much of the sites code as I can and cant find anything wrong with it.

As @Alex figured out, the issues were caused by a hidden link in the WP theme footer.

In order to have the changes reflected in Google (Or other search engines), request to have the site recrawlled and it should be changed in a few days to a week.
