I was running version 2.2, it got hacked by NetDevil.

I used phpAdmin to remove the last entry, but it still left my guestbook in an odd condition: the background is all black, it only displays one entry at a time, and they are unreadable as black-on-black. I looked in phpAdmin for a database entry to set the background color, but it looked the same as another functioning database... so I'm very confused.

I'm a total newbie, so I expect to be abused by the moderator on this, but I need help.

First off, I don't have the foggiest where the database is. I used the cpanel "back-up" tool to save it to my home computer, but never found it on my web-host using an ftp client.

I tried to upgrade from 2.2 to 2.3 by following the "sticky" instructions.

- I copied a few items into the new config.inc.php (dbName, host, user, pass)
- I overwrote the old files with the new
- I copied over the upgrade.php and executed it using one set of username/passwords (all seemed ok)
- I tried to run install, but it will not accept the same set of username/password
- I can't recall the default and the post I read on changing it just said "DOH" to a guy named Gary who eventually remembered the default.

My hacked guestbook is really bugging me. Can someone help me?]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15941.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15941.php GMT https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15942.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15942.php GMT
Can you spell this out for me?

I think I'm unable to install the new version because like an idiot I've forgotten the admin user/password.

I went into phpAdmin and modified the "defaults" on book_config, but when I hit the guestbook site again, it was all just the same (no colors had changed).]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15944.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15944.php GMT https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15945.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15945.php GMT Gary]]> https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15946.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15946.php GMT https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15947.php https://proxy2.de/forum/posts/preList/4594/15947.php GMT
