Our forum got hacked too.
See http://www.smartsite.nu/snitz_hacked.gif

By reading all the posts about the forums beeing hacked I noticed that in many cases the hackers somehow got the password for the admin account and made changes to the forum as an admin.

I made the changes in the files as was instructed and I hope it works out fine.

What I also did was to change the M_Level on the admin account to 1.
This will disable the adminaccount and also disable the ability to hack the forum. At least hack it the way our forum was hacked.
In my case, I do not need an admin account so this change works fine for me.
Does anyone know if this will fix the problem?

Thanks for a great product!

it's hard to say if it will fix the hacking problem. at least it will give you some security (for a while)
