do you have some backups?

I think that your webhosting provider must be changed immidiately. As your web hosting company to restore your FTP and content. I have heard of that spree some time before.
They are promote themselves

[kaykays]

Are all the pages hacked or only the homepage?

Are only php pages hacked or .htm pages are also hacked?

Do you see any newly uploaded pages in ftp?

Check the database in phpmyadmin? Anything unusual?
Search for the hacked text in db? If its is there, this is
due to mysql injection.

if its invison its a kids play 2 hack it..scan your server frst they might have injected some virus 2 your server.update your server with security patches..i saw your cached page..you were using smf..its lot easier to hack..better upgrade it to vbulletin

Indeed, invision or phpBB its a kids game to get access. I used to run few years ago a forum under phpBB...and it got scr... like that after it reached a decent amount of traffic. Till then i left it (stupid) instead of upgrade to vBulletin and keep on going.
