No, they wouldn't. At least i dont think so, maybe the mods were selfish but Ubi HAS to be clever; look at all the games they've made!

I'm sure they didn't use this dumbass worm, maybe they wrote it in order not to be found out...

the site defaced thingy belongs only to the Net-Worm.Perl.Santy.a worm
at least the ARZO knew how to look on the interenet some hacker's stuff...
there is no protection against this worm since they were running phpbb 2.0.5.
The only protection is installing the 2.0.11 phpbb version.
Net-Worm.Perl.Santy.a is a worm used mostly for phpbb and it is a networm

it works in a very n00bish way...
It is relatively easy to hack a phpbb board.
the santy worm replaces all .htm, .php, .asp, .shtm, .jsp and phtm files into files of its own code and "defaces" the entire phpbb setting. quite easy but very effective.
I ve tryed that on a board i made yesterday and guess what the message was?

The easiest way is just to delete everything, but wheres the fun in that? :p

Yeah, and they must be really confident too, if they dare to go after something big like RZ!

trust me that RZ was as exploitable as melted cheese.
these "hackers" have done one good thing though in using this worm that is that it doesn't leave any logfile so it's hard to go after them.

i know because i knew the phpbb version RZ was running on that is 2.0.5 and it's as exploitable as melted cheese.
and also because once accidentally (and see how even accidentally 2.0.5 could get hacked) got the password of a user.

@ren hi renny!
