Hi,
in the admin panel I see always some code:

c1608e58b7a40647381b4667630bf061
82d58bfc8dc7a2fa985939b01d5b694f
69175bee376c12eba6ddbd1f632a7f10

What does it mean?
Besides, it appeared after an intense spam attack via contact form. Obviously, the captcha failed.

Thanks.

This can be md5 sequences of hacked passwords.

First c1608e58b7a40647381b4667630bf061  is  mark_start

You've been hacked because you're probably running an older version of CMS Made Simple (1.2.2-1.2.4) and somebody found your website.

You need to
a) delete everything from your site (all files, and all tables in the cms database)
b) restore from a known good backup
c) change all CMS passwords
d) upgrade to CMS 1.2.5

Just conceptual question: is it possible that FormBuilder has security issues?

Thanks for your advice. I feared that the system has been hacked.
In fact, 1.2.2 is running.
For deleting all the tables what would you recommend? phpadmin?
I made table backups with mysqldumper.
Do you have a  suggestion for the vexed captcha problem?

Uh... very unsecure.

When PhpMyAdmin does it right, what else should we use ?
