My suggestion is that you backup the user stuff you care about(and are pretty sure that ain't hacked), and reinstall. Even if you believe you have gotten everything, there is always that question. Not to scare you, but I know a lot of people that got hacked. Usually the script kiddies do a "rm -rf *" in some directory they believe to be important.
