Hey guys, its the second time i got hacked and im not liking it. Stupid hackers... Now my website once in a while redirects the user to a Adult Finder website with explicity images.
I already edited the index for a "maintenance" page but i need to fix this ASAP.
What should i do now?
Thank you.

You have other issues. I have over 20 domains and not one (knock on wood) has ever been hacked. Change all passwords and check your permission files.
Well technically a member here back in IR's founding days stole my password from his DB and hacked my site but that is something different

Yeah, change your cpanel,FTP, etc. your file permissions are like 0777, or 777 etc. I general like to use along the lines of 755 for my permissions but those still maybe bad actually. I have found that using 644 throws errors like page can't be displayed and yaddi yadda yadda.
Maybe this can help you a bit:

This all sounds like good advice. It sounds like probably the person who hacked your site the first time was able to keep a backdoor that they simply used again.

I restored all FTP accounts, generated new random passwords for my FTP account, cpanel and all.
Doing this i ended up deleting everything on my website, and sadly i lost one of my games... forever
