ok, i basically reinstalled the forum, and now i have it all back up with my template, but just without all the posts and memberlists, so was just wondering how to get that back up without bringing the hack back up? i reuploaded my config file but that hasnt changed anything.... which files should i re upload? should the config file be making a difference?
the problem is that the hack is in your database, everytime you restore it, you get the hack back
go into the database and clean out the hacker stuff. it is usually in the forum descriptions or server name fields, check every single table and field for any html or javascript or anything else that is not supposed to be there,
also, check the phpbb folder for any files that are not part of phpbb, etc.
