So, did you get backed? Or is the problem that the posts are coming out double?

If you were previously hacked, there could be back doors in the database from before yo loaded the 2.0.19 files. Since the IIT doesn't deal with 2.0.6, I suggest you load up the Admin Toolkit and run a secuirty scan.

When you restored your database, did you run the toolkit against it again? It is quite possible that the old backup contained extra admins - you could have been attacked some time ago, and they waited a while to make the attack obvious. Then, when you restored the older backup, the back door was put back in...

i didn't backup and restore the db, first, i install new fresh phpBb 2.0.19 using fantastico in /forum2/ folder then i install all the Mod i need, after that, I rename it from /forum2/ to /forum/ and the old /forum/ i renamed it into /forum_backup/ and then copy the config.php from old forum files (2.0.6) to the new forum files (2.0.19)

so i don't make any changes to the DB.

same applies, your still using a database which could have been compromised back when you were running 2.0.6...please follow the advice you are being given otherwise i will have to lock this and refer you to the IIT :)

bottom line here is that 2.0.19 did not get hacked.

your problems apparently come from an improper update and or hacker files left over from before, or just mistakes made by you or someone else.

if there were any hacks out there for 2.0.19 don't you think that we would have heard of them by now?

I haven't seen one yet that is strictly a hack of the 2.0.19 files.
