If you change the name of the plugin folder, through cpanel or by other means, wordpress will automatically deactivate the plugin and you should be able to get back to wordpress. I had the same thing happen with a theme.

To restore your WP admin dashboard, login to your WordPress install via FTP or cPanel and rename the “buddypress-classifieds” directory to something else like djoep recommended.

BuddyPress Classifieds is an older plugin that hasn’t been updated for BP 1.5.
For BP 1.5 info, you should read these articles:

Thanks greatly I changed the plugin name and it worked all is back to normal… only problem left to solve now is how to stop people from making groups and creating backlinks to sites like viagra.com and such… anyone?
== how to stop people from making groups ==
dashboard > BuddyPress > Settings > Restrict group creation to Site Admins? == Yes or No
my dashboard doesn’t have a path like your specifying.. mine has the following…
my account, dashboard, notifications, vist … each are a pull down menu with dashboard only having the following….. new post, manage posts, manage comments. so no path there for settings. There is a settings on my account but it is only for my personal settings. So any further idea as to why I don’t have a path like your specifying?
Mercime means inside the WordPress admin area (/wp-admin)
I have signed in and the wp admin and the dashboard only gives the options above for admin to use.
Yes. You asked “how to stop people from making groups and creating backlinks to sites like viagra.com” and that’s straight out-of-the-box solution for Site/Super Admins. Any other way would require creation of a plugin.
