Re: ATTENTENTION Webmasters - possible security vulnerability on school networks
It looks like link generating spam. This is placed into remote sites to point back at other sites for advertising SEO. Many spiders won't notice that they are in a hidden div, so the links back to the original sites increase (in a black hat kind of way) the linkscore of the target.
Have you commented out the following JS to be sure they're not injecting the div:
Colourloverscolorpicker.js
print.js
ddaccordion.js
lnews.js
Check this link on the moodle site for additional info:

If your webmaster downloaded a template from a "free site" the linkspam js may be embedded in the moodle skin.
