The only other way is to run phpmyadmin or the likes of it and someone finds it and hacks in through it.
What am I missing here?

Everything Brent.
I thought that after calling Johny Traffic's "I know security" bluff, it would curb posts like the one above.
A passive scan to cd-media.net reveals that you have your own problems. Contact your admin and tell him to update your shit.
If he sais "What shit?" tell him "You're fired." and move to someone who knows.
The point I'm trying to make (and JFPdude agreed with) is that the % of people who are hackable, both on their HOME BOXES and WEBSERVERS is ridiculous.
We sell scripts & have done many installs on client machines. I know the shape peoples boxes are in, and I know the lack of concern for security many people have.
