Can somebody please provide information on this. All the battle.net servers for brood war are hacked "frux > you" and nobody can join or host custom games. This is a problem because it's preventing me from testing a map I'm working on. I can't find any info on this ANYWHERE on the internet, it's been ongoing for over a day now.
edit1: hacked servers still down

Thanks for the replies. ssj114 is correct, some sort of hack is preventing people from joining UMS games. You can host but nobody can join, and the slots freeze if you open/close them. Someone said this has to do with some sort of clan flame war going on
its been around for more than 2 weeks, just recently the immature hacker does it everyday now. Nothing to do with clan war or anything is all hacked by this immature guy name "ILLUMINATUS" from east server. If you talk to him he'll just tell youll hack ur cd key
It's actually been around for months, but usually stops after a few hours. I dunno, I've been able to host through it before, but I haven't been on b.net for the past 3 weeks. (Mostly on iccup now)
Yes I confirm if you try to join a legitimate UMS game, this guy's hack makes it so you can't play any game whatsoever in UMS. Biggest virgin geek ever.
Ya I saw this guy trolling Bnet like six month ago too. All he did was create a huge amount of Forgotname>USEast and Thatsamename>Arandomclan games that you couldnt join.
I actually went to that clan mentioned and the admin told me that hacker got kicked out of the clan for hacking and now he was throwing a tampertantrum lol
Description: An automatical tool designed to disrupt Battle.net and remove all games currently hosted. Inject it and it goes.
He figured out "worse" things than this. This is just the beginning.
This...is THE END!!!!!!!!!!
What exactly does this do? For what I understand, it removes hosted games? Soooo, the games hosted on battle.net, and once this is run you can't join any of them?
Once injected it removes the listed games on Battle.net for everyone. so it effectively dissallows anyone to make a game; or join a game as there are none to join.
Basically kills Starcraft Battle.net.
The author is HellInsect. Once you start running this, it starts disabling games. But yes, basically all it does is kill hosted games.

Criminal investigations are underway and a warrant is out for the arrest of the hacker responsible. Glad to see that he'll be behind bars soon enough. Justice will be served for infringing upon thousands of peoples' right to enjoy their purchase of blizzard video Starcraft Broodwar. I am going to sue for damages inflicted, no matter how small, because of the inconvenience these hacks have caused.
WOW this shuts down ALL GAMES ON EVERY SERVER FROM BEING PLAYED. Not just UMS, the newest link shuts down Melee/TVB as well. It got updated or some shit. Now it is public, one person using it per server can fuck up every server.

There are tons of programs mega hackers have recently made to fuck over USEast/USWest/Asia/Europe. The one linked by Hecsagon is something different. It is a program that prevents ANY GAME WHATSOEVER from being hosted on the server while your on it. What people were originally referring to was a program that stops only ums games from being hosted. I have also seen a mega hack program that follows any given player and prevents him from playing in games on server....
this is seriously getting out of hand......i mean blizzard should just shut down battle.net for starcraft players...we cant even play a freaking game let alone host one........i tried us east us west europe and asia servers.....and one guy is hacking every server so we cant host any games.......the whole blizzard server is destroyed please blizzard do something about this....you guys are spending money into these servers hosted by at&t so please do something about the hackers in this game....

ive seen this happen periodically maybe even a year+ from now, but not for long stretches of time (less than a week). seen some posts back then on tl about it

true...i still play ROC and the server is swarming with fucking hackers-.- fu bnet with ur shitty sc2
I think at this point, no matter how much Battle.net 2.0 is shitty, it would be best if Blizzard somehow ports BW and WC3 to it. At least we would get auto matchmaking and I wouldn't have to deal with these idiots when I just wanna play some BGH on East...
This is a long-known hack that hosts games which crash SC if clicked on. Normally made games on all servers work fine; I just created UMS and joined UMS on Battle.net. This thread is pointless, as it is just an overreaction by people who aren't aware of the nature of the problem.
"I'm releasing this for a informational or educational purpose! Though it will fuck over thousands of people and was designed for destruction and horror and I'm really just a good guy trying to free the internet!"
Like wtf goes through the heads of people with the power to do these sort of things??

Top verses Bottom games are still fine to host and join. But if you try hosting a UMS game, no one can join it.
el oh el, who's playing on EU / NA Server anyways nowadays ... it's all ICCup / Fish nowadays. Ladder Servers are just too good man

Yeah I remember it too, but now it's public and it's on every domain.
Blizzard should have done something about it several years ago. -_-
For you simple people ive comprised this to explain how to play ums while this frux shit happening with great results. To Play user map setting, make game name as desired but change gametype to Top vs bottom. Once your lobby is full rm same game name with password as "1" he reason is frux is just effecting the ums lobby list. Fuck a lobby list just need a name to bring them together.

Thats pretty clever, and you've tested it?
As someone who played a lot of UMS and not so much melee (but I did watch starleague!) during 2008-2011 this is really sad. I remember it happening back then but the only for maybe a few hours, the worst one I can remember was for 2 days.

That's not the hack people are talking about. Crash games are just a simply buffer overflow; it would be easy for Blizzard to fix. This game list problem is totally different; any UMS games hosted while the hacker is running his script will not be joinable for long (just a very short time); then it will disappear from the list. You can still play provate games, of course. I guess when you went on to test it, the hacker wasn't running his script anymore.

Well, if that's true, that's fucked. Seems like a good idea to play on ICCup then. Is there some reason people are averse to that? I definitely haven't seen any of these sorts of problems on ICCup.

i actually said that in the blizzard official server......this is pretty crazy whats going on right now....i mean why would want to destroy battlenet for days so that no one cant ever host a ums game.......

Hey again, thank you for this trick. I actually created this thread shortly after running into you on east. I tried oblivion as you suggested, but most recently updated Oblivion chaos launcher still didn't fix it for me. I'll try this method out whenever the server is experiencing a meltdown

Tested works 100% lets play Poker XD
The only problem being it doesn't appear in the UMS list of games.
Like I said, it seems only to effect certain names. I hosted a game called "this is diplo" 4 times in a row just fine. Whereas before had tried "Diplo Infi" 4 times in a row to no avail. If you whois the host while they get hacked, it says they are in the game FruX > You 8567u4987. So someone it is changing your game names.
The BW Bnet servers probably haven't seen an update in ages, which is why a single user can shut down everyone. Blizzard is doing something about this, right?
Well...I have a friend who works for the CIA named SiCk.Orifice in US@East...If you talk to him, he will proud to provide you with a IP block code so you can host public games without getting hacked by Illuminatus. However, the problem is Illuminatus is continually changing his IPs so that you have to continually modify your IP block settings.
a message to Illuminatus: You have to accept the fact that there are still around a million people playing starcraft:broodwar. Starcraft: Brood War is still alive in our hearts and we want it back. We will go through extreme measures to restore battlenet. in BW and i will assure you that you will get hacked eventually
