Default Please help ASAP I am being hacked AGAIN!
Somehow I have a member who is getting into the admin cp and changing stuff.

it started subtly by changing a letter in a forum NFL FORUM to NLF FORUM so that it would not work. now i log into the admin cp and this guy has made himself an ADMIN!

please help! what can i do? i feel helpless!!

Does he have access to your Admin panel or to your database? I would password protect the admin panel (htaccess) and also password protect your cpanel/phpMyAdmin. And, change the password to login to ftp.

Ban him and turn off new registrations until you get it figured out.. if he can get back in even after the registrations are turned off and he is banned, then he's got access to cpanel/phpmyadmin. If he can't, he's only got access to the Admin CP and you need to change some passwords.

remove tools.php from one of your folders..forgot which. That is probably your problem...I believe it should be in your admincp folder..remove it.
