Hola,
Recently I was hacked like my others by a Turkish group exploiting older versions of MyBB. So like any other admin I explored the MySQL database looking to see how I was being redirected, and upgraded my forum to 1.5.
After finding the redirect code within the boardclosed_reason area, I removed it and set boardclosed to 'no'. However my board still remains closed and the redirect inplace. I'm not qutie sure how this can be possible when I've removed it. Also none of my forum descriptions have been altered.
Following some of the posts on this forum I disabled javascript in my browser to look at the source, which promptly revealed that the redirect code is still in place right below the board is closed message.
What can I do to recover from this?
I would also appreciate if anyone could tell me how to access my ACP with my admin account deleted aswell, and therefore I have no other entry points while the closed message is implace.
Many thanks.

. No idea why the information is repeated in the DB then, but oh well.
