At this point I would not trust any system binaries such as commands or
executable programs you don't recognize.
You could try booting with a LiveCD and use find to expose files created
recently. Most likely there is a binary somewhere in /usr/bin or /usr/sbin
with the sole task of deleting certain files to cover things up.

It would be informative for yourself to find out *how* the break in occurred.
You'll need to know how to prevent it once you reinstall.
