I need help and advice. I am in the process of removing the code. I've reuploaded all the files, but am going through and having to manually edit files of add-ons and stuff.

Basically this php code wiped out everything but the first few inches of a page. Everything below that was gone. Searches were not functional, etc. It's a big mess.

check logs see how they got in and change all passwords

[michelle86]

I've contacted my host (bluehost) and they said there is no way for them to see the history of who has logged into my bluehost account.

Is there any other way I can check?

[CAG CheechDogg]

I have dealt with bluehost in the past and they are just not someone I trust at all. You might want to think about switching to another hosting solution.

Without enough persistence from me and a few questions that I asked them I was able to get them to give me access to an account of mine that I had no idea what the credentials were. They should of never given me access or changed any information for me to access that account because "I" was not able to verify who I was, yet I still got what I wanted.

[michelle86]

Just saw a .logs file. In it was a logs1.txt file with a bunch of weird urls listed in it.

I deleted it.

--------------- Added [DATE]1348866181[/DATE] at [TIME]1348866181[/TIME] ---------------

Found and removed all the code. Everything is working now (I hope anyway). Still can't figure out how someone got in or where they got in.

If anyone has any advice or has any ideas, please let me know.

Every host keeps logs if they say they don't they are lying

Exactly ForceHSS, I had very bad experiences with those guys.

michelle86 do your self a favor and switch to another host to save your self future head aches.

I use HostGator michelle86, check them out.
