A lot of users tend to use same password for various accounts. So, if the hacker gets one password, it means he can gain access to other accounts owned by the user.

TechCrunch Hacked 16 years ago

Did Apache behind TechCrunch always add "X-Pad=avoid browser bug" header ?

Apparently few Apache 1.x installations use to send this header as part of some fix for few versions Netscape.

Edit: TC seems to acknowledge the hack now. Also, the header X-Pad is missing now.
