Could it perhaps be coming from site meter? which you have on your footer section. Whatever is doing this is using javascript but Bruce may have a better answer than thisWink

User has removed their file as shown above
Bruce or anyone else knowledgeable - can you assure the forum member that their database should now be secure?

Had someone with a simular issue a few months back.

It turned out eventually that the hacker had got in through lax site permissions and had placed code into another file outside of the forum.

The hacking itself wasn't forum related, but the hacker had placed code in this other file which had an SQL Query in it which every time the file was called it would place a similar javascript into the majority of fields within the SQL Server database.

You should delete your entire site and reupload from the last safe backup you have. You should also make sure that you have read only permissions on your web site.
