how do you protect the MD5 packet?


I have been able to close the holes in vb so it can't be attacked by hackers, but is there a way to hide the MD5 packet or to make it unfindable? I've seen it decoded and could see all the sites passwords.

I've moved and renamed the admincp so it is quite safe now.

No file hows the passwords, they are stored in the database, along with the hash.

vBulletin's protection is pretty high. Only add-ons and YOU can wreck it.
You really don't have to be a coder or anything, in order to keep it tight.
Just have a good password on your admon, webhost control panel and on your mysql user.
