Hacked!

http://www.intellecttoday.com

We've been hacked. I don't know how, I don't know why, but it has happened.

Now the question is - how do I reverse it?

You mean how do you put your site back up?

You don't have a backup on cd or dvd?

Typically when a site is hacked, they usually rewrite the homepage and leave the rest, but if your whole site was deleted, the only thing you can do is get out your backup and upload it.

If you don't have a backup, your Host might. You might try contacting them and see if they can provide you with a copy. If they can't, you're screwed.

Sorry that happened.

Idea:
Find the pages Google and the other search engines have indexed pronto (before they are reindexed) and save a copy to your computer so you can rebuild. This idea won't work if your site is database driven, but it might help you at least get a copy of the site template.

Good to hear! I was just about to suggest contacting your host immediately. If they are anything like my datacenter, they only hold backups for 24 hours, and then it gets written over. I would recommend holding onto your own backups as well, which it sounds like you've already done.
