Hacking problems

Within a few days time, both my league and one of the ones I play in have experienced server hacking incidents.

I am curious whether others here have experienced this. One of my owners has pointed out that the game itself could contain a vulnerability, and although I think there are more likely explanations (I was using a weak password), I thought I would check around.

What kind of hack was it? Did they deface your league site? I know a thing or two about this kind of thing since I host a lot of league sites. Don, why don't you send me a PM at our league site and maybe I can help you out with security and a little payback to

the hackers as well.
