After two hours of it changing the "permissions", I aborted it since the site needs to be online, and this was apparently going to take a very long time.

From this innane description I have provided, can you clarify this for me. I do not believe I overwrote the config.php.

If you have shell access to the server upload the zip and unpack on the server instead of unpacking locally and then uploading all files, it should make things go faster and likely eliminate the chmoding of everything.
