Well, I'm working on the problem. It just is going to require assistance
from outside sources. :D

This is a frequent management problem.   I'm familiar with it, and I have
some strategies for dealing with it.  Outlining the full scope of the
problem, and likely consequences of that problem.
However, in this case you have a compromised system.  More than likely,
whatever on your website went deeper into the system.  Your website is now
being used as a vector to spread infection.  Failure to address the problem
in total is likely to result in repeated infections, which will annoy your
customers which may result in lost sales, which management is probably going
to like even less, especially as it puts the company out of business.

I am *quite* aware of that phrase, however, management is not in a spending

Perhaps you should become familiar with the concept of TAANSTAFL.

Funny thing... Qualys didn't find anything, but securi.net found some
javascript malware. Not sure which to believe. Anyone got another free
scanner that isn't trying to sell you something? :)
