I saw the other message you sent to me privately.  Yes, you were hacked.  If
you don't have md5sums of all the files on your system, you should probably
start out fresh -- you don't know what he ftp'd in, but he probably installed
a rootkit and left all kinds of backdoors for him to come back.  Plus, you
still don't know how he gained access in the first place.
