okay what is the best way to move the imparted folder outside of the vbulletin directory?

right now it is in the basic format
images/imported -------as a result---------> domain.com/vb/images/imported

can i do it
../imported ------as a result--------> domain.com/imported

There is no way to move the imported folder out of the vbulletin directory. The only workaround would be a symbolic link (Linux).

If entire folders disappear, you have a system problem and if I was you I would concentrate on that, because it does potentially destroy your forums, too. The only other option which comes to my mind is an old cPanel version which has had a sort of inbuilt "protection", which would purge all folders which weren't built from within FTP or the cPanel. If that is the case, this option has to be disabled at least.
