Site has been hacked

my server sending out ssh attacks

[StoutFiles]

My site has been hacked by someone and my server company has contacted me since my computer is now attacking other computers.

Can anyone guide me through a way to clean/refresh my server, if that makes any sense? I don't know how these things work or how they're doing it as I see no visible files on my server that I haven't added myself.

Your best bet is to start over a new machine... re-install a fresh OS and all your apps and then move all your code/data over from a backup (preferably from a backup that was done BEFORE you were hacked).

That's the new plan then, thanks.
