Please don't spread lies/misinformation. The server.cfg download exploit has been fixed for a long time. There's no danger to having your rcon password in your config file. Unless eventscripts is running, there's no way to retrieve the rcon password without the rcon password.

and you should consider KAC even if that problem is fixed because it catches sooooo many more hacks and exploits than VAC, is self updating, and kicks/bans instantly rather than letting them continue to hack for another month... Kigan also maintains a master ban list that will keep many would be hackers from ever getting into your server to begin with.

I wouldn't use KAC, but that is for philosophical reasons, and a few others..

The proper action is to remove es_tools. It contains at least one major exploit, that allows commands to be executed via rcon by any connected player. You should not be running this addon under any circumstances.
Don't waste your time. My plugin fixes everything that one does (and more), and doesn't prevent you from adding admins to the server.
@SurbarbanCommando: rcon_lock produces logs of every command executed on your server, unless you explicitly disable it. You can find them in your addons\sourcemod\logs directory. If you can't understand them, send me the cmd_*.log files from the day the issue occurred, along with any timestamps of when the attack happened.
