HELP! categories, products al gone!

Hi Gang!

I had a weird issue this morning where none of my categories or products are showing up, likely because of a database user that was hacked (used unwisely on another wordpress DB).
Anyway - deleted the old DB username, created a new one, all fine but still I can't see any of the categories or products. See here: http://www.gabkits.com/

I have all of them however in the admin/categories.

any hint where I should start looking?

thanks!

Re: HELP! categories, products al gone!

Just a wild guess on my part - but I'm betting the forum gods will tell you to go to the section called "Concerns about Hack Attempts" and to click on the big blue letters up top that say "click here - recovering from hacks". They'll also probably ask that you answer some of the questions asked in the "posting tips" - version, upgrades, addons, etc. :)
When I go to your link I do see categories on the left so I dunno...
