Wtf,
sorry for swearing guys but it gave me a bad taste of things.
Getting your emails accounts accessed & stuff deleted is a very serious issue (if i understood janmueller's post correctly) (the chart toppers, top position/shouts issues etc are really very minor compared to having your personal information compromised), and perhaps beyond SW control too.
My advise to all (for your own peace of mind) will be
Do change your passwords asap if you haven't already and keep your SW passwords different than any other you use for your personal stuff.
and SW guys, if possible change the RW rifflink links so that the user password does not show up in url or is atleast encrypted.
This is a very major security risk, if it's not possible to be changed, leave a notice for all users to have a different password for SW website & rifflink than what they use for their personal stuff like emails so they at least know. Many people tend to keep same passwords everywhere and get affected by malicious activities. If possible in near future have the logins etc over SSL too.
and to the person committing all this - there's enough hatred and bleep goin' on everywhere in world already that can do just as fine even without your contribution, just spare the musicians and apply/use your skills elsewhere. (you just might get to sleep better).
