Hi, I am new. First let me say I don't understand much of this stuff. my friend made a web page for me as a gift, the page has a forum. Someone has found out how to access the database and get the admin password and is deleting my members. I talked to my webhosting support staff but they say there is nothing they can do. Something about a SQL injection or something. Anyone have nay advice?
 
Thanks

All user input is run through filters to prevent SQL injection, so I doubt this is the problem.

Did you follow the install instructions on securing your database?

If not see the following page:-

Also make sure:-

You are running the latest version 7.96
You only have one admin account
Your passwords are difficult to guess
