As most of us know a vulnerability in Install directory recently found in vBulletin community software, there are thousands of vBulletin powered sites got hacked and hackers manage to get access of AdminCP as well as control panel to inject malicious content. The worst case is during initial days when a forum gets hacked, hackers create admin accounts and that's actually the stage where cleanup is required to fence off the hackers and enhance security but majority of forum owners don't even get to know they actually got hacked until Google puts a veil on the forums with malware warning page. Removing the install directory now (as that's the main source of hacking attempt) won't help because it's already been too late and thorough check and cleanup is needed.
