 * To whom it may concern,
 * I am not sure what started the problem, but I will give all information that 
   its possible to help me to find the possible failure.
 * First problem: Suspiciously the right sidebar can be visualized only in the index
   page,when before it could be seen in every blog´s page.
 * Second problem: The comments module doesn´t charge in the entries page, and don
   ´t allow the users leave comments or even read them.
 * First possible cause: Recently my blog has been a victim of a hacker, because
   of that I had to restore some older archives of previous versions, the involved
   directories were “home” and “wp-includes”, obviously when I accesed to the WP-
   admin it notified me that I had a previous version and pending updates, so I 
   updated again.
 * Second possible cause: As security measure, I have changed the “root” user from
   the database for another one with the same privileges and configured it in the“
   wp-config.php” file. Does WordPress vinculates any information with the user 
   that connects to the database?
 * Sincerely I don´t have the knowledge, could you help me to solve the failure?
   What archives would be involved? It must be wrong replace them with older backups?
 * Version: WordPress 2.9.2
