Update: Mojang fixed the issue, we are back online.
Quote from Mojang:
We are aware of the security issues involved with the Minecraft authorization servers and are currently working to fix it.
Right now the authorization servers have been taken offline and will be down until further notice. The Mojangstas are working hard to make sure we get everything back to perfect working order.
We’ll keep you updated as we have a more clear timeline. We really are sorry about this and are working as fast as we can!
Basically, there is a flaw with the minecraft login server which allows these "hackers" to login as anyone (even admins) on any smp server with mojang accounts. There were attempts on the World of Minecraft Public Server which were detected and blocked immediately, followed by a server save and safe shutdown. This happened a few hours before posting this message.
Once the security issues with minecraft have been fixed, we will be back online.

I was about to come into this thread and blast the noob that posted about the server being down.
Carry on.

Whenever I try and connect it after a millisecond of connecting a message appears saying:
Connection Lost
End of Stream
Why?

The only way to really stop Hackers is to IP block them permanently from World of Minecraft. otherwise they find newer and more decisive means of getting around your blocks and security measures. (i can even use myself as an example: i hate being grounded from my computer. So when i am grounded, and my parents take my wireless mouse and keyboard, i switch to my old windows 95' backups. when my parents take my screen, i use my projector to play online on the wall. when they take my wireless modem, i link to the hidden spliced telephone wire in my ceiling. ) blocks only cause more hazards in the long run and nothing truly lasts forever other than completely blocking their computers from ever linking up to the servers. If they are trying to pull off hacks as you so described here, then they deserve it.
