Default Mod I have installed, any HACKABLE?

Hello I have installed some mods and now have this thought/fear that these are going to my my board vulnerable to a hack. How can I make my board the most secure even if I have these mods installed?

As well I have done a lot of template edits and such and was wondering if doing any of this can cause someone to be able to easily hack it?

Please give me some insight, I'm a bit worried

Now here are the mods I'm using:
  • Chatbox
  • Collapsable First Post using AJAX
  • Inactive User Reminder Emails
  • PhotoPlog Pro
  • Right Side Column
  • Separate Sticky and Normal Threads
  • Tri-Use Box
  • vBSEO
  • vBSEO sitemap generator
  • Welcome Panel Template Rewrite

Which chatbox are you using?

None of them seem to have known exploits

Actually, there's one that actually does. I just have to search and find it. A friend of mines website got hacked when he installed the shoutbox. Took him a few days to figure out where they entered his site. I'll find and post the shoutbox he used later.

Mmmmm.....How about blocking ANYONE?
Code:
order deny, allow
deny from all
Back on topic, none of those have any reported vulnerabilities. And I don't have the time to check them at the moment.
