First of all, reinstall the drupal core to make sure you are playing with a
full deck.

Make sure you include .htaccess !!!

Put the lightbox2 module back, disable it in Administer > Site building
modules, then click on the uninstall tab, and uninstall any modules you have
disabled and are sure you don't want any more.
Then, logged in as user 1 (the user you first created when you installed the
site), run update.php like this:

http://example.com/update.php

And report back.

Next time, work with a test site, which you then copy to production when it
is ready. Or at least back up your site (database contents and file system
contents) at important points in development. And you should also be using a
version control system so you can "move the clock back" whenever something
like this happens.
