Will you please stop cross-posting this on the forums. Stick to one thread.

If you believe that you were compromised through a cPanel related route you should contact cPanel and have them investigate before trying to patch things up. Do obviously make sure that you are running a supported and updated OS and kernel, though. Posting your cPanel, OS and kernel versions here would also help, together with which FTP daemon you are using.
