Still have the same problem.

I have posted in vbulletin.com's forum as well. I expected that as many of their customers had this problem and because it was caused by a security exploit, they may have been keen to offer some sort of "official" solution. Many of their customers are still compromised by these same admin accounts that they are unable to remove and VB staff in their forum are studiously ignoring my posts for 4 days now, while answering others.

While I am confident that by password protecting from cpanel my admincp and modcp folders, I have prevented these accounts being able to do anything worse than posting, it still feels uncomfortable having them around. I want to be able to cleanly delete them.

The work I have done so far shows that it may not be as simple as a database edit (especially if you don't know what you're doing). I would like someone to assist me (and the loads of others) who have this problem. A bulk delete mod would be nice, but a simple step-by-step instruction and a few lines of SQL query would be even better.

Anyone?
