Google wrote in a blog post today on how webmasters can go on cleaning compromised website:

It's not always clear to webmasters how to go about cleaning up their sites once they've been compromised, so this time we thought we'd share some best practices.

2) If Your Site Has Been Compromised, Perform a Comprehensive Cleanup
--  Remember to Check Your Web Server Configuration
--  Deleted & Error Pages: Dark Corners of Your Website Where Malware May Be Lurking
3) If You Switch Hosting Providers, Disable Access to the Old Version of Your Site
