What have i done wrong!!!

i switched to this software as it was the most secure but now look after 3 friken days!

Someone no like you, and from what I can tell they no what there doing big time, best option, get new hosting and a new domain.

wtf. that aint advice pal, go away.

That is advice, if your forum is being hacked, files replaced, database changes made, your server may have been comprimsied.

wtf?? i paid for this software which you guys made your a mod right? you should be givin me advice not tellin me to go buy new hostin. i want to no how they did this or how to fix this!!

guys come on i need advice there has to be a admin or mod who noes what he is on about please. :(

There is no %100 percent safe board, as you can see the guys who are hacking you know what they are doing, nothing we can do here, the best option for you, is tow try to hide your self, via new hosting and a domain. If you keep using the same domain and hosting there just gonna keep hacking you.

My advice? Check your logs, check which files are being accessed to identify the file being used for exploit, change all of your passwords and re-upload all core files. I would do a fresh upload - as in if you can remove ALL existing files from your host (or have your host wipe your account). You have a corrupt file somewhere that is being used as a backdoor IMO. It could be in an installed plug-in, an external program (i.e flashchat etc.) I would also be sure that you are the only one with admin access to your forums/ftp. Make sure all other accounts have limited access (if you have more than one FTP account) and any programs you are running beyond the forums - check for exploits on google. Ensure you are running the most up - to date software possible.

As for getting a new domain and a new host - unless it is a situation where the main host is compromised, that is an unnecessary step. You should work directly with your host - perhaps run a virus check on your account, and inform them that you are being compromised and they will do everything in their power to find the exploit. What host are you using?

"You had two people here who were more than willing to give you advice, until you bit their heads off. See how much advice you get now! You just can't talk to people like that."

Dude telling me to go buy new hosting is not good avice. I have no money as i bought THIS software with my last pay check...

ITS POSSIBLE ITS NOT VBULLETIN, HAVE YOU THOUGHT OF THAT??!


Just because you're being hacked/exploited doesn't mean its from vBulletin.

First you have bad attitude... ask nicely and you will received help...

Look I am sorry if you felt i was a little nasty on some of my posts, but it is only beacuse you said I should go buy enw hosting and a new domain..dude i meen come on it isnt good advice. I will try to be a bit mroe nicer about it if i get hacked again.

My friend was helping mebefore and he seemed to think my cutenews could have been a problem. is there anyway to intergrate my VB News section to my website so when i post news on there it will show up on the site?

thanks.
