To whoever is setting the syetem up on Madden-Mods - I'd seriously advise better password management. If the site can be penetrated multiple times in such a short span of time, there is either a hole in the system or the passwords are pretty bad.

THere has to be a hole in the system. I've used insane passwords recently. My last one (not current) was cacacanchaball78215petrio. I'm not kidding.

What they are doing is adding a index.html file. Thats it. I assume theres a hole somewhere that allows them to upload that file. This causes a problem, because browsers will open the index.html file before they open the index.php file, which is the normal one. If anyone has any idea's I really need them.

If anyone has a huge list of proxies, that'd be great. I really need them. Just the IPs, not the port numbers.

I can, but I think you can just overwrite them. Good idea, though.

@Trues-Managed, I'm looking at getting a serious one at 1&1, but I'm broke and I don't have a credit card

Update

I've been thinking of changing from CPGnuke to IPB. I'm not sure if it's a problem with CPG, but it seems like it. If it gets hacked one more time, I'll switch. If it continues to get hacked, **** will go down.

Second updateIf any of the mods want to learn how to fix the site after it's been hacked, that'd be great. I'm leaving in about ten for a few hours, and it'll definitly go down before I get back.

I contacted one of the people who hacked the site.

It turns out he's a pretty nice guy. He told me how he hacked it, and he told me how to fix it. Long story short; theres a huge vulnerability in FlashChat that allows people to edit files. Sucks, I know. I decided to just remove FlashChat. If I can find out any more about this vulnerability, and possibly a way to secure FlashChat, I'll bring it back.

Ahhh..didn't realize you were running flashchat.

BTW, there's a patch (4.6.2) just released that supposedly fixes this issue. If I were you though, I'd just keep it off.

Good luck.

i had a similar problem. you need to actually type "www.madden-mods.com" into your browser. I tried hitting my link in favorites a couple times before I figured that out.

you will also have to erase your link in favorties and put it in again.

hmm... what about your rosters.. were you able to save them? also, we're not gonna be able to combine them as planned... you can export default teams but you cant import them into a roster as it doesnt overwrite... we're gonna have to figure out another way to do it...

I'm still in the process of getting my computer restored. So I'm not sure what I do or don't have at this point. My computer got royally screwed up. As soon as I get this done I'll PM you on here, and well go from there.

I agree 1,000%. I wouldn't care how nice he was to you, I still would not want anything to do with him anymore. And maybe he was being nice only because he was nervous that you guys found out who it was

look at it this way he was nice enough to tell him how to stop others from doing it. He did not have to say anything

What did MS do with the people that 1st hacked the xbox? They hired them to work on the xbox 360
