Send your domain name, hosting account username and password to the helpdesk. I will restore your site to the original but if you had any custom design you will need to re-do it or use Darrin's restoral service (if he did work for you).

Actually you should change the username and the password first. Or send the original and I will change them also.

Send me the new information and your PIPS ID.

thanks for reply pat let me ask you i can access to my web panel and i had my old index page so i replace it now take a look Practical Work At Home Business Opportunities | Make Money Online | Make Money At Home | Make Money Fast is that fine or I have to do what you say.

Patrician · 8th Sep 2008, 09:13 PM

It's fine except the blank box on the left margin - looks like Adsense should be there(?)

However - I ABSOLUTELY advise you to change both your username and password immediately.

Otherwise you can get hacked by this same mob again.

Make the username and password both numbers and letters (both UPPER and lower case) and other characters like #$%^& -and make it as long as you can - write it down!

thanks pat for help and i did change my host4profit password but u mention username to how we can change that..? I can do that or I have to sent email tp host.

Host4profit reply and someone hacked my joomla site not all so i can't access joomla but so far everythig is fine.

thanks pat

Patrician · 8th Sep 2008, 10:05 PM

I guess you have to have Host4Profit change the username. I guess as long as the password is strong and long you will have to settle for that unless they will change username for you.

Glad everything is back to normal.

Thanks Pat For all

Wow, I can't imagine what you were going through. I would never think of someone hacking into my website. I think I'm right behind the rest and going to make a backup just in case. Better safe than sorry!

Glad to hear everything is back to normal for you.

Best Regards,

Alan

Thanks for all of you

Thanks God my site is restore after talking few hours with Host4Profit they find what happend here is the email I got back from Host4Profit

Hello,

Took a bit of digging, but found the file they managed to update via
FTP.

/templates/rt_chromatophore/index.php

For some reason I was seeing a valid site, but then after going back,
it showed the hacked site. Guessing I needed a refresh or something
as I don't see any odd accesses from after I restored the DB.

Thanks,
David Hasbrouck

Thanks Host4Profit great and I got back my joomla admin site and safe site how we can protect our website there is some kind a software we install If anyone know about that please let me know.

Matt Helphrey · 9th Sep 2008, 12:13 PM

Wow scary stuff indeed.

Glad to hear you got it resolved though. Those people at H4Profit are great arent they?

Patrician · 9th Sep 2008, 12:33 PM

Yes they are absolutely the best support on the planet.

I just want to mention that the backup facility is on the main menu of the WebPanel.

It is very very easy. Just click the Backup Site icon and pick Zip file and Begin Backup. It will take a few minutes but then it will ask where to save it.

I have a folder in /mydocuments named 'backups'.

If it is ever necessary to use it, you can upload the zip file to the domain in the file manager and unzip right from there and viola!

This is much better than trying to copy every file - particularly with WordPress because there are so many.

Awesome!

It took me a whole 45 seconds to back up my website. Better safe than sorry.

Thanks again Pat
