Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
Please do not PM me asking for help unless you've been specifically asked to do so. Such PMs will be deleted without answer. (forum rule #6)

1.  Restore from most recent backup.
   - Well that's the theory anyhow.

2. Change all administrative passwords and any other passwords connected to the hacked machine.

3. Make sure your os and site have the latest patches applied.
  - 4Image has had a security notice up for weeks now,  hopefully you've applied that fix. 

4. Again, depending on your os. do some safe computing work:
  - scan for viruses.  Use GriSoft if you're cheap like me.
  - scan for malware.  Use spybot and/or adaware
  - check your web logs - see if you can figure out who was hacking your site.
   (look for repeated login tries by the same or similar IP's)

Good luck!

Thank you for your reply.

I have done the listed suggestions. Do you think I would be save? How can they access my account? What is the best way to keep my self protected?
