DBTech - AJAX Threads +
DBTech - Forum Tabs +
DBTech - Live Feed +
DBTech - vBActivity +
DBTech - User Tagging +
DBTech - Registration +
DBTech - Custom Nav +
DBTech -vBNavTabs 4.2 +
Funnily enough, my hosting provider couldn't figure out how to remove them.
Please let me know how this is done.
Thanks very much in advance.

- Locate those modifications on here, see the mods tab up top right? Click it then use search and find them.
- Once you find them download each one.
- Now extract the .zips on your pc, what files are there? As you now guessed it yes, those are the files you originally uploaded and to remove you need to delete those same files from your server.
- Don't forget to go into the product manager and uninstall the actual products as well.
- If something goes wrong, it's more than likely due to the fact you removed the product but didn't delete the files so ensure you remove each mod one-by-one and be thorough.
I don't believe your site was compromised via one of the modifications above, DB Tech is usually on top of their modification in regards to security from what I've noticed. It is possible though but overall I believe it was related to your /install/ directory still being present.
