Anti-Malware Admin
Key Master

I know you told me that the malicious code is in your core files, that is extremely common, but that hardly ever means that you cannot login. You see, it’s not usually in the best interests of the hacker to disable or cripple your site, they can only take advantage of your infected site if it is still functioning. It was probably an accident that they broke your site at all.

You can check the error_log files on your server to see why your site is not working and fix that problem so that you can use your wp-admin again and then use my plugin to remove the rest of the threats. You could also try replacing the wp-admin and wp-includes directories with a fresh copy and manually fixing some of the core files in the root directory, but it would be more efficient to fix the exact file that is referenced in your error_log file.
