Default My Forum HACKED for the 3rd time.
Someone keeps on going onto the forum with my account even though I have changed my password to a 16 character password with words and numbers, AND passwords protected the site (admincp) via .htaccess.

Is there anyway i can stop this from happening? e.g. cmod admincp 000 to stop people from accessing the admin or will this give the site some problems which might require files in the admincp?

Please help a.s.a.p

this is impossible that you've been hacked that way... you may have something outside the server...

you have admins ?! moderators, supermods, etc... someone else have access to your computer, etc... these are always the same questions you have to answer...

there is not a single possible way to hack Bulletin the way you claim... so it's 100% on your side.

Ok thanks.

I do have super mods and moderators. I will have to remove some of them.

So this can't happen with even hack on the site? I only have the Arcade, Photopost and the last 5 stats (posts) on the main site.

No, only the "install.php" does and even then it could only delete the database.

Which version of the arcade?
