Im lost. Lets try to figure it out together

He block all communications including banning my ip from his site.

That sucks, what a childish thing to do. Serisously he should have just dealt with it, did you ask for a refund or anything?

The bad thing is I paid for two sites and I still do not have any working the way it should.

What all did you pay for him to do, can we see the work that he attempted or screwed up?

have found hidden links in my site to Steve M of vbpatrons.com site

What good are hidden links? Did you personally see the links or was it just a "Hey joh, i found a 'hidden link to xxx site'?

When asked Steve M of vbpatrons.com log in and removed files that cause by site to go off line

Now it gets interesting. See first quote, thought all communication had ceased? Why didnt the guy from forum.vbulletinsetup.com simply remove the files that needed removed? Simply removing vBulletin files is harmless anyway. Just upload the new ones so you know you have a "clean" set of files with no "hidden" links.

Which brings me to my next inquiry of why you'd have someone who is apparently jerking you around to continue to work on your site? Just kinda curious as to what happened and why. It helps paint a better larger picture of why or why not people should continue to use his business.
