Good day! I cleaned Joomla sites after receiving a similar letter from the hosting — I am removing the uploaded shells (these b6f7fad4dd15.php and index-like files), but I am going through all directories, not just the antivirus list, otherwise it will pop up again. I am changing access and closing the hole through which they got in — for 3.9.6, it is usually an old core or extension, I will update Joomla and components. Realistically — 2500 UAH, 2-3 days with verification. Will there be access to cPanel and the database?

Hello. Regular backups and password changes won't help here because your Joomla is very old, and hackers can get back in through known vulnerabilities in the engine without any passwords at all. To solve the problem once and for all, you need to completely remove the infected files, reinstall the engine on a clean slate while preserving all your content, update the system to a secure version, and strictly block script execution in the image folders at the server level. If you're ready to do it properly and thoroughly this one time, message me, and we will discuss all the details.

Hello, Sergey.
It makes sense that changing passwords and restoring backups doesn't help. There is a hidden backdoor (shell) left on the site that the hosting's automatic antivirus simply cannot detect. Until it is found and manually removed, you will continue to be hacked in circles, especially since Joomla version 3.9.6 is very old and vulnerable.
You asked to state the real price without any "surprises": the entire turnkey job costs a fixed 2500 UAH. This amount is final, and there will be no additional payments during the process. It will take 1-2 days.
If this approach suits you, please write in private messages; I am ready to start the repair promptly.

An important point: if after 2 recoveries and password changes the virus returns, it is a sign that the entry point has not been found and closed. Simply deleting files from the antivirus report and changing the password does not solve the cause; attackers will upload files again through the same hole or through another shell that the hosting antivirus did not detect.
Another important fact: Joomla 3.9.6 is a version from 2018-2019, and the entire Joomla 3.x branch is officially out of security support (EOL). This means that even updating to the latest 3.10.x does not provide permanent protection—no new security patches are being released for this branch. To truly stop the site from being hacked, the only reliable way is to migrate to Joomla 4/5. I say this honestly, because otherwise you will find yourself in the same situation in a month.
Proposed plan:
Stage 1 — elimination: a complete audit of the entire hosting account (not just public_html) for hidden backdoors, removal of all malicious files, and finding the entry point (outdated extension/template, vulnerable file permissions).
Stage 2 — hardening: changing all Joomla keys/secrets, updating to the latest 3.10.x, removing unused extensions/templates, .htaccess access restrictions to the admin panel.
Stage 3 (recommended) — migration to Joomla 4/5 as the only way to guarantee not to end up here again—the scope depends on the extensions/template and will be assessed separately.
Regarding the price: stages 1+2 (cleaning + closing the entry point + updating + hardening) — starting from 4000 UAH, the exact price depends on how many extensions/templates are installed and whether additional malicious files are found during the audit—I will honestly inform you about this right after the first review, with no surprises later. Migration to Joomla 4/5 (stage 3) — a separate estimate after the audit of extensions.
I have practical experience in cleaning hacked sites (web shells, malicious files on hosting, restoring .htaccess, closing the admin panel by IP), as well as experience with Joomla and ready-made CMS projects. I am ready to start immediately.

Good. Over 20 years of web programming experience. The update may not help - the shell may not be in the core... Ready to investigate and neutralize...

Good day, Sergey!
I cleaned the WordPress site from viruses, and there is a review for this work in my profile. The logic for searching shells and backdoors in PHP code is similar regardless of the CMS.
Since the D2 recovery and password changes did not help, the list of 4 files from Hostpro is almost certainly not the whole picture. Either the backup from which we restored already has the infection, or there is another backdoor in addition to the listed files, or the entry point is still open. I will check all directories, not just the antivirus list, all admins in the database, cron jobs, templates, and extensions for foreign code.
I will also close the typical entry through file uploads - I will prohibit script execution in folders with images and uploads at the server level, as this is a common cause of reinfection, especially on old Joomla. I will update Joomla and extensions as much as it is safe for the current template, and changing keys and passwords goes without saying.
The cost is 3000 UAH, the timeframe is 1-3 days with a check after a few days to ensure the infection has not returned. If something outside the usual scope is revealed when accessing the server, such as a broken template, I will first show the problem and we will discuss it.
To start, I need access via SSH or at least FTP, plus cPanel and access to the database. I am ready to begin today.

Hello!
The problem is that simply deleting the found files is not a solution: version 3.9.6 (2019) has accumulated many vulnerabilities, so cleaning without updating = they will be hacked again, as has already happened twice.
I suggest: a complete check for hidden backdoors + updating Joomla to the current version to address the cause, not just the consequence.
This will take approximately 1 day.
Feel free to reach out, and I will provide more details.

Good day. I can take on the restoration and cleaning of the Joomla website. I will not just delete these 4 files because if the site has already been restored twice and hacked again, it means the reason for the hack remains: old Joomla, vulnerable extension, file permissions, hidden backdoor, or infected files that the antivirus does not immediately show. I will check the website files, find and remove malicious code, restore the normal operation of the site, update Joomla and extensions as safely as possible for the current template, change access credentials, check permissions, .htaccess, unnecessary php files, and implement basic protection to prevent the site from being hacked again through the same entry point. The real cost of such work is 6000 UAH, without the history of "starting for 3 kopecks, and then three times more expensive." If after access it turns out that the site is completely destroyed or it is necessary to separately redo the old template and modules due to incompatibility with the update, I will first show the problem and agree, rather than silently increasing the price.

Hello! I looked into the situation — it's a classic Joomla 3.9.6 problem, there are known vulnerabilities that allow these PHP shells to infiltrate the root and assets. Simply deleting the files is not enough — we need to find the backdoor that remains after recovery, completely clean the database of possible injections, update Joomla to the latest 3.10.x (or 4.x if the template allows), and close the access rights gaps. I will do it in 2-3 days with a check in a week to ensure everything is clean.
