Hi,
my joomla website using Ximenia as a Template was working great for 2 years
since last week it's been infected with these ads the we did not created and they come from cdn.adnxs.com and advertising-support.com.
I have tried all that I could to remove those from my site
would you have any idea on how to remove them?
pls let me know if you need any other info
thank you

If you didn't add those then you're site has been hacked...
when joomla sites are hacked it's usually the index.php file in templates/template-name/ that's infected... so restoring that to it's original state will likely resolve the ads displaying... but you also likely have other infected files that allowed the hacker in that also need to be restored...
Pull up an FTP program, or SSH in, and verify the modified date of every file... look for files/folders that were modified around the time you noticed this started happening... and try and restore them from a backup or from original Joomla/Template source code...
Upgrade your CMS code every time a new release is put out... - Last Edit: 10 years 6 months ago by Matt.
