yes, WPE PRO is illegal. However, all other hacking programs for CP is legal. It's just that they don't comply with CP's Terms of Use. Hacking is illegal depending on how you use it. If you use it to cheat on games its ok. If you use it to mess up the game's scripts and destroy the website, then it's illegal. Another non-gaming example of this would be like hacking the Pentagon.
