Yahoo Counter injected code mysql database fix (from MikeB12)

12/25/08 | by Bob | Categories: Security

I had sent a private message to another victem of the Yahoo counter mess asking if he found a soultion, and a few days later he replied and said that he had removed it from his pages and his database. He also warned that there are probably variants of this and it might not be exactly where it was in his database. Still though, this is great info.

MikeB12 put together some great screen shots of the removal process and included these comments:

"update: I got this thing cleaned. WOOHOO!
my site's source is now free from this thing http://www.doxietown.com/phpBB2/index.php

here's where I found mine...
(the forum wont allow the full pic width on the screenshots, so just right click the image and "view image in a new window)

it was in 2 tables (categories and config) in phpmyadmin. some screenshots below on how I removed it.."
