Just couple of weeks ago, my site has been marked as having malware by google. This is really strange because I checked and can't find any suspicious code. The site is http://www.alectang.com.

Can anyone of you help here? I have been checking and submiting this review request on Google Webmaster tool, but they never review and unblock it. The latest review they did which was 20th August, seems to still reporting it containing malware. I am extremely puzzled and helpless...

One thing i am suspecting is, because there were some Wordpress blogs on my sites which were compromised, by having hackers inserting hidden ad codes in footer, hence they were first been blocked. But I quickly removed those spammy links and got google to review them and straight away the next day these sites were back unblocked.

But for my non wordpress sites, they seem like never get unblocked, even they have never been compromised.

Please help, thanks.

Same way most files get hacked. Weak passwords, poor use of permissions etc.

Or just exploits in the scripts themselves.

Had a similar issue with WordPress, where someone was injecting base64_encode() javascript into my pages that linked to russian porn sites.

And this was with a locked down admin panel, along with my 16 character alphanumerical password.
