zaidi Posted May 21, 2013 Posted May 21, 2013 HH_username: pakistanSteviehttp://www.mqmpakistani.org My site was Joomla based. I found out hacker attack last night. I removed the posts that hacker made and tried to add additional security steps, but it seems it was already too late and hacker had already got the control. I have older backups of my site. I will take the backup which I made 1 month ago and add all the necessary security steps before uploading it. Hope to get rid of hacker this way. May I request you to please restore my site. Thanks & Regards.

zaidi Posted May 21, 2013 Author Posted May 21, 2013 I am not a technical person. But I removed the whole site, made a fresh Joomla Installation, and then imported the database, changed the passwords, installed a lot of security extensions for Joomla. Hope this removes the problem.
