Your site has been comprimised. It sounds like an SQL injection. Hopefully you have a backup of the site files/database prior to it being hacked.
Hacks in Joomla sites are 99.9% of the time related to a site owner not updating to the latest versions of both the core Joomla system and (more often) not keeping 3rd part extensions up-to-date.
The best things to help prevent/monitor that is to subscribe to the Joomla! Security News and the Vulnerable Extensions List.

You need to remove/replace your facebook module (FB LikeBox FanPage). It has two hidden links for this fucking site.
