The sidebar.js was only listed as “suspected” instead of “known.” If a scanning tool identifies something as suspicious, you just dig a little deeper to make a judgement call as to whether it is a real issue or not.

You might want to ignore the javascript file for now and go ahead and “Request a Review” through Webmaster Tools (previously referenced.)

In addition to reviewing the other documents and discussing with your web-host how this may have happened, you may want to scan your local PC for infection. A number of the more recent web-site infections are the result of malware on the local PC capturing FTP credentials. Others have reported that [ AVG, Avira OR Avast ] along with [ Malwarebytes Anti-malware ] often detect and remove such malware. Some of the other tried and true anti-virus products are not detecting the problem on the local computer. So … check your PC and change your passwords, just in case stolen credentials are the cause of the web-site hack.
