First make sure how your site got compromised so it doesn't happen again.

Please read carefully and follow each step.

Suggest you get it functioning with whatever version you have currently then upgrade, rather than attempt an upgrade 'halfway' as if you did have any issues it would be a pain sometimes to sort as they may of been upgrader or restoration issues*

*Same if you are say moving servers and upgrading, do one at a time ie move (and check its alive) then upgrade or upgrade where you are (again check its working first) then move etc.
