If you have not patched to Joomla v1.5.7 I strongly urge you to do so. Thankfully I had some recent backups that saved my butt. This event has raised some questions with me though:
1.) I was surprised when I restored that my restore included a copy of all the previous backups! No wonder the darn thing was getting so big (around 30 megs) Is this the default configuration these days? I did not see where to not include all the other backups in the current back up....
2.) My ISP told me that the original hack was about a month ago so I do not know whether or not to trust my backup! May I suggest the addition of some form of CRC of the directory files so that you can easily tell if someone has changed these files and which ones had been altered?
3.) Does is there a write up or instructions on implementing a cron script on GoDaddy. I am clueless and don't even know how to begin, other than noticing something in their control panel about cron scripts but don't even remember where.

HI there! Regarding issue 1), you should set to No the "Include other backup files" option from the JoomlaCloner Config and see if you have anymore issues, and also make sure you are running the latest version of our backup software
Regarding 2), indeed, that is a nice feature, we will work on implementing it!
As for issue 3), in the JoomlaCloner/XCloner backend there is a left menu link called Cron, you can find there further details, but if you still have issues, you can open a support ticket and let us setup the cron for you
