Don't know how it got in there but I deleted a re-direct that was leading people to a virus called Gabylove.
The virus is not on Alienbabeltech
The file re-directs the browser to a web page with that virus.

That's the same thing I mentioned months back. It keeps coming back, you need to make sure you don't have any ways of accessing the site/forums admin system enabled than you actually use, and that there are no "extra" users. Also ensure the sql/php that runs the site is fully patched and not letting unwelcome guests in through backdoors.

I just checked the file again and it is still clear of that re-direct.

Did you record the date/time stamp of the file by chance? I'd be interested to know that, see if it matches up with the departures of Rollo and evolucion8 by chance.

Oh, and check your backups. If you restore a site backup that is infected with this it will return.

If you restore a site backup that is infected with this it will return. There is no virus to detect anything infected. A re-direct points the browser to a web site page that is infected elsewhere on the web.

It's still a file that can be contained within a backup though.

Actually AFAIK we are going to do our back-up this weekend. We are going to change our CMS to something other than WordPress (we added another more actively involved webmaster) ... also ... We added a new editor - Anthony will cover video games. We hope you like ABT's expansion.
