    use anti-virus software to scan all your file before upload them

    If they all are being hosted in 1 hosting company, surely the virus is on those files. Ask them to have better filter and anti-virus.

    This is a typical hack attack that is done on CMSs with security hole.

    Someone has injected a code in your website that contains malicious code (which is why Google has banned you)

    Wordpress or Joomla or Drupal are too secure and loop holes only appear when you add plugins that are not checked for security.

    1. Remove all plugins for now else be ready for being attacked again. A hacker checks for its hacked domains again to feel proud. It will keep on hacking till you are secure enough.

    2. Install CMS Security plugins (some of them are good and available)

    3. Always keep a backup of content. There are some auto-backup plugins in Wordpress and Joomla.

    4. If your website is critical... always keep atleast 3 copies of your copy ready which you can switch whenever there is an attack

    5. Hire a expert (last resort) to secure your website
