HI,
Our forum was hacked due to negligence on my side. Anyway, I have recovered for the most part, except that the webwiz logo that should appear has now been replaced with a link to the hacker's(i assume) website.
I have updated to the latest patch(.96? i think), hoping that it would replace the files that refer to the logo...but to no avail. I also did search for the link to that website, but that doesn't seem to be in any of the files.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

It's only the powered by links and copyright at the bottom of the pages you can not change. The hacker usually changes the one at the top of the page, this can be updated to your web sites own logo and a link to your homepage through the 'Forum Configuration' page found in the admin area. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |
