I hope someone can help me.

I'm admin for a site that requires new users to be approved.

All was going fine, until one day we noticed 2 things.

First, the approval process was no longer working and new applications were being allowed immediate access (once they confirmed their email).

Second, a spammer had applied (so I suspect these 2 are related).

When I started to investigate, I noticed that COPPA had been disabled.
I checked the Admin logs, but found nothing. One of the other admins had deleted the spammer's account (so I suspect if this is related, then his history was deleted as well)

So my questions are:
Is it possible we were hacked?
Has anyone else had this happen?
How do I fix this now?

Thanks for ANY help you can give me?
