There are a lot of places where a little tiny code can be implemented that does the job! Here are my suggested steps to take towards fixing the issue: - You may find out where is that code exactly written by opening your joomla folder(ftp, sftp) and checking your last modify date of the folders > files. This way you may find where is the bad code! - I would also recommend you to update your Joomla to latest version asap! - If you are already on the latest version, I recommend you to reinstall the Joomla core by going to Administrator > Components > Joomla Update and click on the reinstall core button! - If after this the issue is still present, then the issue is somewhere in the templates folder or somewhere in the 3rd party modules/plugins that are not coming with Joomla by default. If there are such extensions(modules/plugins) try disabling them from Joomla admin and check if the issue is still there! - Also please check your .htaccess and see if there is any strange code present! if possible, remove .htaccess and after reinstalling the Joomla core, rename the htaccess.txt to .htaccess.
