Google is blocking all my sites because it has detected malware

I have quite an old installation of DNN maybe 4.6 and know i need to upgrade but does anyone have any suggestions on how to scan for malware or where it might have got it.  It appears to be all my sites so I would have thought that its in the root somewhere

Any help would be greatly received

In Google webmaster tools I think you can ascertain where the malware is being reported. From there you can take steps to remove it.  If your sites are using separate DNN installs and they are all infected this indicates the problem is at the server level.

Before updating your installs I would first work out where the malware is. As updating an already compromised site generally won't fix the problem.

Hi Paul,

just got a warning when I went to ClassCampers;  VirTool: JS/Obfuscator.CC 

Warning: Something's Not Right Here!

Paul's Site contains content from pop3.bbzassociates.com, a site known to distribute malware. Your computer might catch a virus if you visit this site.
Google has found that malicious software may be installed onto your computer if you proceed. If you've visited this site in the past or you trust this site, it's possible that it has just recently been compromised by a hacker. You should not proceed. Why not try again tomorrow or go somewhere else?

We have already notified pop3.bbzassociates.com that we found malware on the site. For more about the problems found on pop3.bbzassociates.com, visit the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page.

Let me know when you've fixed it and I'll remove the above

The Google warning is not indicating anything wrong with your DotNetNuke site, rather it is identifying that your site is surfacing content from another site (pop3.bbzassociates.com) that it recognizes as a problem. Not knowing anything about this particular site, I would not know what you've configured, but it is likely through en embed code, a popup or something similar.  Do you know what is on your site that references this other site?  If it is something you think you need I would contact them about this immediately.  If it is something you can do without, you might consider removing it until you know that Google will report it as safe content.
