How do get the smilies in the shoutbox. Do you have to enter something like 8) <--- this to get it to work?

x, are you 100% sure that the new shoutbox is hack resistant?  (no such thing as 100% hack proof)

um, hack resistant? i don't think there is a 100% hack resistant. There is a class at my school that quit trying to put that sort of security on the comps cause hackers get around it.

Technically, there is no way to execute PHP or MySQL commands through the shoutbox or through the forum (at least to my knowledge, but I know there isn't through the shoutbox)

www.icehack.com, I think.

And yes I'm sure there are ways in the forum that hacking could be done.

Why do they want to hack a forum?

Interesting question.. most of the time they do it to prove that they can do it.

Well, technically, hacking forum software is a lot harder than it sounds.. and it proves that nothing is invunerable.

I don't think so, the only people who would want revenge on use are Kiler and Xkr, both of whom I do notthink have the experience let alone the meterials needed to do it.  I think it was someone trying out their new hacking abilities.

All he did was leave a little message (in x-firs name), someone evilminded knowing of that exploit could have easily screwed up the entire forum...
(im just comparing the different outcomes, one message compared to a wiped user database for example)

He "informed" us of our lacking security which i think was pretty good actually so that we could prevent any possible evil minded persons ^ ...

And it's not like he "hacked" the forum, He used an already known exploit...
A real hack is when you figure out an exploit no one else knows about...
(atleast that's my opinion)

i wouldn't know, i don't know how to hack, so, my opinion, anything that gets around security that isn't a virus, worm, or ect, is a hack.

So is breaking a cipher considered a hack?

Yes, this is good that he didn't do any major damage.

Technically, http://www.xfir.net/xfir/itsasecret.php is a web-based cipher.

So, in effect, ciphers can be web-based. But I can understand your idea.. I think you instead intended Internet Security.
