GameYin Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I posted in DarkMindZ to stop hacking here. I hope they take my suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 They're a bunch of losers and amateur programmers. Just take a look at their register script and their "CAPTCHA": Â <form name="registerfrm" action="" METHOD="post" onSubmit="return ValidateForm()"> Username: <br><input type="text" class="textbox" id="user_name" name="user_name"><br /> <br /> Password: <br><input type="password" class="textbox" name="password1"><br /> Confirm: <br><input type="password" class="textbox" name="password2"><br /> <p><small><font color="red">For your security, test your password strength <a href="pass_check.php">Here</a></font></small></p> Email: <br><input type="text" class="textbox" name="email"><br /><br /> <!-- Your Verification Code: 2bd5c --> <!-- Your Verification Code: TW96a --> <!-- Your Verification Code: GJ96n --> Your Verification Code: cflyk <br /> Please Enter The Verification Code: <br><input type="text" class="textbox" name="code"> <br /><br /> <input type="submit" name="cmdRegister" class="button" value="Register Now!"> </form> Â Morons...

revraz Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 Hopefully someone is taking DOS Legal action against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 As far as I'm concerned there is no legal proof that the owners of darkmindz are behind the attacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 All you're doing is giving them the attention they want. Â I posted in DarkMindZ to stop hacking here. I hope they take my suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revraz Posted March 4, 2008 Author Share Posted March 4, 2008 Hmm.. all of our sigs and website links in our Profiles got linked to them. I'm sure that is enough ammo to do some IP tracing.  As far as I'm concerned there is no legal proof that the owners of darkmindz are behind the attacks.

cgm225 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 This will of course spark a huge discussion, but from my experience at phpfreaks (which has been awesome), there are many really good web programmers here. So why...  (1) Is this site not more secure? I would image all of you would know more about cross site scripting attacks, injections, etc than most people.  and (2) why don't you use those skills and do us all a favor by taking down their site?

tomfmason Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 (2) why don't you use those skills and do us all a favor by taking down their site? Â Then we would be just as bad as them. I don't understand why they would want to attack an open community like this anyways. Why not do it to someone that really sucks ie http://www.drphil.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redbullmarky Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 cgm, you have a good point. To address them though: Â 1, The main site is very old and therefore vulnerable, and recent attacks have meant it has been taken down. The new site is being developed as we speak, with security heavily in mind. SMF, on the other hand, we have not much control over as it's a 3rd party system. Â 2, Because two wrongs don't make a right, etc. There is a very very strong case for legal action should PHPFreaks owner go down that road. However, getting one's own back would blow a case completely out of the water. Â It's a shame that people feel the need to hit a free community, considering many of the people I'm sure would have gotten help from here in the first place in their early days, but shit happens.

phpSensei Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 I would hack them back, if anyone's with me. Â just kidding... Â Glad everything's back to normal guys, darkmindz are noobs btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haku Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 Newbs or not, can't be hacking them without some proof it was them, and if there is proof, then the people here should go to the police, not hack them. Â It could very well be someone who has a vendetta against them, and is just trying to get them in trouble by hacking this site and framing them.

haku Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 No, but depending on the countries in which the attacks took place, and and where the servers are located, there are police that can be contacted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenway Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 No, but depending on the countries in which the attacks took place, and and where the servers are located, there are police that can be contacted.

haku Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I'm not. The chances of it coming to much of anything are very minimal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
