Upgrading Drupal

Last night I started an upgrade from Drupal 5.3 to Drupal 6.6. The upgrade has been rough and I have overcome many issues along the way. I have a suspicion that I may have had some file or db corruption when I started the upgrade.

Anyways- long story short...

Currently I am experiencing the following error message when going to mysite.org...

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_access() in /home/xxxxx/public_html/includes/menu.inc on line 449"

There are not too many posts to this particular issue. I cannot restore from backups as the backup I made appears to be incomplete despite selecting the full backup option which was supposed to be files and db... I should have checked it more thoroughly before proceeding.

I have tried http://mysite.org/index.php?q=admin/ and http://mysite.org/admin/settings which gets me the same error message mentioned above.

Doing http://mysite.org/node/admin gets me this message:

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function node_load() in /home/xxxxx/public_html/includes/menu.inc on line 410"

Going to http://mysite.org/index.php?q=user get me this message:

Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in /home/xxxxx/public_html/includes/form.inc on line 511

I have reattempted update.php after a few changes to the db, and re-uploading the 6.6 files, but all I get is a blank page with http://mysite.org/update.php?op=info

I just upgraded my Drupal site from 5.10 to 5.12 today, and I've run into some problems. After uploading everything, I navigated to update.php to go through that process, but I simply got a blank page. I've had this issue before, but it's always been a lack of memory available to php (for example if I forgot to upload the backed up .htaccess file with that exception in it). But, this time I did in fact fix that problem, so it's not that (no matter how high I set the limit it doesn't work).

Anyone have any ideas what this could be?

I just installed drupal on my hosting co. (powweb).

They installed v 6.4 so I got an err msg in status report:
"Drupal core update status Not secure! (version 6.6 available) There is a security update available for your version of Drupal. To ensure the security of your server, you should update immediately! See the available updates page for more information"

So I downloaded the 6.6 security update, unzipped and extracted it to my pc.

Now what do I do?

So, I recently received the notice from my Drupal site that there was a vulnerability in my 6.? version and I guess I might should have updated. I'm not sure it would have mattered but perhaps it would have.

Today, I noticed my site was offline and closer inspection revealed it was because my site had been hacked and infected with a trojan using an iframe exploit - apparently. I'm not an expect at this kind of thing.

Research reveals that Drupal is not the only target for this malware - Joomla, Wordpress, PhpBB and several others all have reports of the same thing in their forums.

All files with htm, html and PHP are infected, even if they were in sub folders. The code added is shown in two examples below:
