I mean you guys could have been using VB. I know my friend was able to get the entire code you guys use "I told him it was a bad idea." But when he went to hack it. It would have took him a couple of years just to crack a single password. Does this mean he/she could have learned the code or like you said knew about the common flaw? Also is their any way to stop this flaw in the code or will it always exist making AL always open to this sort of a attack?

Anybody with just a small knowledge of coding can see that our site uses PHP by the file extensions. Also, all games like ours are based off the same code and a similar structure. Whoever did this definitely knew about the common flaw, as did we. About 6 or 7 months ago we went through the entire site to fix this flaw. Unfortunately we missed one area and this person found it.

There is definitely a way to stop it, and we have put the stop on the area he used and are checking the rest of the site to see if we missed any others. Once we feel every area has been checked and secured we will be ready to go.
