Yahoo Web Calendar Security Issue?

Hi,One of my clients is using Yahoo Web Calendar. The last week, someone has accessed her Yahoo Web Hosting account 3 TIMES and put a redirect on ALL her HTML pages. Yahoo has done little to help with the problem but did tell me there is a problem with Web Calendar. Seems like there is a flaw in the PHP files that allows someone to go through Web Calendar to access your hosting account on Yahoo. The supervisor I spoke with, Brad, told me to "strip out the form validation" Can anyone give me more information? I find this to be completely unacceptable on Yahoo's part. I know they don't provide support for the Calendar, but if they are going to partner with a company that supplies a Calendar program they should at least test to see if it is secure!Please respond if you can help.
