Directory acting funny - any ideas

    Hey everyone, I was just reviewing submissions on one of my free directories - 5 Star Directory and suddenly as I was approving a submission it bumped me to the directory view (from the admin section). I did not think much of it and tried to log back in, but the admin login will not appear. It has worked perfectly for months (since it was updated). So, when I type, www.5stardirectory.info/admin I just get the directory and not the login screen. Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated as I have not run into this on any of my other directories.

    Thanks in advance,
    Chris

    You may have been subject to an XSS attack. really cant be sure though.
    Definitely check over your main files like index.php, details.php, contact.php etc etc and looks for odd looking encrypted strings in the files.

    just wondering if you modified any files lately?

    Thanks for the info an0n. I did not modify any files since the directory was updated months ago. Since I am not a much of a programmer I am not really sure what I am looking for and would be more than happy to pay you for some help. If you are interested please PM me.

    Thanks,
    Chris

    Check your error logs on your server & see if it says anything there.

    Check in with your hosting to make sure they haven't made some sort of config/change that may be affecting you.

    check if the admin folder is still on the server (use FTP)
