Clean Malware Overloading HostGator Cpanel

My WordPress blog on a HostGator shared account has been burning through bandwidth ever since a recent malware injection. cPanel shows unfamiliar files in /public_html and dozens of outbound requests I never generated. Several pages are already compromised, so a single-file fix will not be enough—I need the entire installation scrubbed, secured, and returned to normal traffic levels.

You will have cPanel, phpMyAdmin, and WordPress admin access the moment we start. The job is finished only when the site runs clean on popular scanners (Sucuri, Wordfence, ImunifyAV) and HostGator’s bandwidth meter stabilises.

Deliverables
• Complete malware scan of all directories, themes, and the database
• Removal or quarantine of every malicious file or line of code
• Written report summarising what was found, what was removed, and any plugins/themes you updated or replaced
• Basic hardening steps applied (stronger .htaccess rules, updated core/plugins, disabled unnecessary write permissions) so the infection does not return

If you routinely handle WordPress clean-ups via cPanel and can prove the site stays clean for at least 48 hours after your work, let’s get started today.
