tl;dr
I have a VPS and the index.php's where getting compromised.
Was advised to delete files and keep configuration.php and reinstall components / plugins.
All my Joomla plugins/components have re installed fined except Kunena.
I downloaded the zip and extracted from here, all installed except com_kunena.

I am using the latest Joomla, latest Kunena and PHP 5.3.29

Why did you do it that way instead of following the K 3.0 Upgrade Guide ? :dry:

Who advised you to delete the Kunena files but keeping the configuration.php? This has never been the official advice from the Kunena team.

I did it for the whole Joomla not just Kunena. Something was changing files that had to have been on the site. Per Joomla's own disaster recovery docs.joomla.org/Security_Checklist/You_h...en_hacked_or_defaced

A Safe route for disaster relief

save the configuration.php file and your images and personal files one by one, (not the folder as it may contain unwanted files)
wipe the entire folder where Joomla! is installed
upload a new clean full package latest version of joomla 1.5.x or Joomla 2.5.x, joomla 3.x (minus the install folder)[2]
reupload your configuration file & images.
reupload or reinstall the latest versions of your extensions , templates (even better is to use original clean copies to ensure that the hacker/defacer did not leave any shell script files in your site)

For anyone with this issue I had to drop Kunena from the assets table then installed the component again and it works fine.
