I believe they are using the new expressindoorfootball.com site now. Whats up with these hackers anyway? In a way i feel sorry for them. Its apparant they have no life outside of hacking peoples sites. I wish they would crack down on these guys and make the laws more severe. Surely they can track their IP addresses......

Tracking the IP address rarely works because most of these people are based outside of the USA, most are on dialup connections meaning their IP numbers change and really the only way to ban them would be to ban the whole region these people come from. The problem with that would be that they would just have a buddy in a different country hack the sites.
To these people its a contest. See who can hack more website, then broadcast the number of websites you hacked. They even have websites built where they celebrate each others hack jobs, and broadcast what sites were hacked. They put their own logos on the hacked sites to prove that they are the ones that did the hacking, and are awarded points based upon the difficulty in the hack job.
I've had two sites hacked in the past, and since moving to my own servers I havent had one hacked yet.
The real question isnt why they cant be stopped, the question is why do these website that are hacked stay hacked for weeks without being restored from a backup. It takes 5 minutes to restore a hacked website to pre-hacked status max.

I too have been lucky in that none of my other websites have been hacked. I use Geeklog software which is heavily secured. Joomla and similar sites seem to be easy to hack. IMO, they should get rid of the "Register" and "login" boxes. Thats how alot if not most hackers get in.

Do they use SQL injection on the username and password textboxes? Lehman's terms: SQL injection is where you add code to a textbox on the website, normally a username or password textbox. If the coding is not done to catch the inserted code, it can be hacked. that's a mouthful!
