| Posted : Sunday, 8 December 2002 - 06:06 Yes, some criminals have hacked into WarOnline. For what reason, noone knows. I guess some people get excited by this kind of thing. Personally, it makes me sick.
So, I suggest everyone change their passwords, just incase you were online at the time and they managed to hack yours.
If you cant get in (they changed it), just use the Forgot Password option, or email me.
Sorry folks, we're looking into the hacking situation now.

| Posted : Sunday, 8 December 2002 - 11:22 its bad to be hacked but notice one thing:
theyll probably do it again. the reason why they do it is: they are able to do it. thats all. o_O |

| Posted : Sunday, 8 December 2002 - 11:25 Did they actually break into the waronline BOX, or just into the DNS and reroute where www.waronline.net pointed?
I was still able to log on waronline even after seeing the 'we own your box blah blah' message. I went to www.waronline.net/main.asp and went to the regular login screen.
There's a major difference between breaking into the box holding the game, and changing the DNS. |
