Our database is very old and has tons of old hacks installed. Most of the hacks either are too old or never had uninstall routines, so I am trying to clean it up in preparation for upgrading to 3.6.
I performed a fresh install of 3.0 in order to compare our database to it (so I can identify the extraneous tables). But the first time I "cleaned" our database, the site went down.
So I wondered if a Moderator could look at this list of tables and tell me if they are all OK to delete? None of these table names appears in the default installation of vB3 and we are running the standard (unhacked) code.

Actually now that I think about it, I could just rename each table one at a time and see if it breaks the site. If not, then I can delete it.
