This is something you have to contact tufat.com about.
Im sure they can give you answers on that, but i have never heard of any flash utility being hacked

I found today that half of my site visitors visits chat using very weird  agent :Agent: libwww-perl/5.805  ,and their IP are from everywhere (most from German isp providers ) .I also found this topic in tufat.com-http://forum.tufat.com/showthread.php?t=24428&page=7 and I am 100 % sure that someone whant to hack my site via flash chat . I wont to terminate that scripts ,we dont use chat anyway last months .Can I just press un -install from flash chat administration and that will be OK ,or I need to go to my public directory and delete chat files ?
If someone can help me that will be very great .I am really moron when working with file directory ,scripts or programing are needed.Dont have a clue about that.

You just have to delete the chat folder from your forum, and if you have it integrated, just go in and remove the Chat.php and the codestrings from your index.php file, then you are Chat free

That is easy part ,I found chat folder and eliminating him is piece of cake  8) but  other task - and if you have it integrated, just go in and remove the Chat.php and the codestrings from your index.php file, is science fiction for me .My chat is integrated but I dont know how to remove codestrings nor where to find them  ::) .

G6Cad

In your forum root, find
index.php

in there find and remove
'chat' => array('Chat.php', 'Chat'),

then in your forum/themes/default   find and remove
Chat.template.php

Then in /forum/Sources/ find and remove
Chat.php

That is about it if you removed the folder "chat"

You may also have to remove any Flashchat tables from your Database, to eliminate it completely.

But do a backup first in case you make a mistake.
