How does the misleading title of "Creating Windows Phone 8" have anything to do with hacking into one?

Shouldn't it just say some kid figured out a way to hack into Windows phone?

The usual misleading title just to get people to click on it routine.

Britton30, you might want to add the word Malware on to the end of your header as it means something quite different the way it is now.

Well he's creating malware, I don't see how that rocks, but unless the OP changes the original header people will continue to be mislead by it.
