Post-hacking loss of password [solved]

Post by terimurphy »

My site got hacked by Russian pronographers (the version from last november).
My Yahoo host was able to restore all the files, which, amazingly, was enough to get the site up and running. But now my password doesn't work. In case it reverted to the default password, can someone tell me what that is?

Follow these instructions, it'll reset your password:

You can use phpMyAdmin to issue that command if you don't have shell (SSH) access to gain access to the mysql command line.
