Help! Google Indexed Spam/Porn Pages On My Site

  • I checked my indexed pages in Google and I have discovered several sex-related links that lead to the home pages of two of my blogs.

    On my 1st blog, the spam URL appears like this:
    https://www.mydomain.info/index.php?category=62&watch=798
    all the porn pages are under the ?category=62

    On my other site, it appears like this:
    https://www.myotherdomain.info/?category=63&watch=980
    Again, there are a bunch of porn related pages under the ?category=63

    These URLs have different sex-related titles and they all lead to my homepages. How can I possibly get rid of these URLs and erase them from my site?

    Is there a a rewrite or redirect rule that I can put in my htaccess file so that

    if (someone requests = https://www.mydomain.com/?category=63&watch=X) then show file not found error ?

    Please help. I have to make sure that these URLs will return a 404 error or something like that so I can request Google to remove these from my indexed pages. Thanks

  • Oops, sorry, on edit I see you’re using 3.0.3… I guess the below is probably irrelevant (though it might help someone else)…

    [Are you using an old version of WP? There was some nasty stuff around version 2.7 or so that injected porn and other spam links into your code, so you may have this stuff in your site without knowing it. (View source on the pages that are linked to.)

    If that is the case, that means all you’d have to do would be to upgrade to the newest version to ostensibly fix this.]

    TYes. And my other blog has been upgraded to 3.1 but the porn links are still there. Thanks for trying to help anyway.

    Just an update: I browsed my files in my root directory and I saw more than a thousand uploaded text files in one of my folders. These text files contained the porn related stuff that are hidden in my site. I have deleted them but still, I don’t get that 404 error when I click the supposed indexed spam pages via Google. Everything still leads to my home pages ?? I wonder where should I look for the other files that can disable the unwanted links…
