I wasn't sure quite where to post this, but it needed to be seen nevertheless. A mod can move it if this is not in a good place.
After my board was "hacked" by someone, a website was left on the 'this page was hacked' page. I went to the website using Google's Arabic translator, and I found an article entitled " MyBB < = 1.1.3 Create An Admin Exploit" Here's the link to it, 'already translated' (Google has a very bad Arabic translator
http://64.233.179.104/translate_c?hl=en&...6sid%3D183
It looks like you have to download it, which I have not. This may be the key to figuring out how to stop these "hacks." Just because this guide is for 1.1.3 doesn't mean that it doesn't work in later versions. Perhaps this article was created when 1.1.3 was the latest version.
I hope this helps. And, if someone can help translate better, it might help, too.
