Was HackShield Pro improperly set up? That could kind of really help them >_>
That or they actually hacked the database VIA website.... again....
Seeing how it would be a lot harder to hack the database within the game, they would have pin pointed to the website more.
Why? It's easier, A LOT easier. If you can find a weak point in the website to perform SQL Injection (which is what they did it seems), such as URL Query String or input fields, then boom, you can grab everyone information. Hacking the Login/Password Field could be the source of where they got it from, because that field is hooked up to the database of accounts.
Do note, in MMO structures, login information is separated from character information, but brought together by a (Primary) Key. So "hacking" in the shop, which isn't possible, won't do squat.
I don't think it's the HackShield Pro's fault here, people, but rather Asiasoft's Web Developers.
