My website GruntHalo has just been exploited, idk what he did but I don't have admin priveledges anymore.

This is basically what he did to the site:

He either moved all admins into a new usergroup entitled admins but gave me priveledges OR he deleted all admin preveledges from all admins.

And I don't have a backup either, what can we do to save the site?

Jonathan, IMO, if you protect your ACP with a .htaccess script, you will be much more secure:
