I accidentally deleted my admin account. Now what do I do?

Your admin account isn't exactly deleted, but you can do something similar to reactivate your account back to admin status. Of course, the big question is how this user has infiltrated your site. Do you know any more details about that? Do you recognize this new admin account?

Getting your admin account back is simple, assuming you still have access to the server side stuff...

Then, however, you need to figure out how he got admin access in the first place.

Smf version? Mods installed?
URL?

And finally...
