So you accessed the directory, but have you reloaded the system from
scratch?  If not you are probably still exposed and your system may
still be under the control of some one else.  If they take exception to
you removing their files they may come back in and wipe your system.

You should disconnect the system from the network immediately and
reinstall the OS from scratch.  That is the only sure way of making sure
you have control of your server back.
