URL hacks I think are easier to handle than form.Variables.
I have limited to bare min, the number of variables passed by url and were I
have used them.
and were I have they are limited to a Number/Integer, so that the VAL(),
works well. but with forms, there is such a wide range of information that
you are capturing, that it makes it a lot harder to control.
I have used <CF_FILTER>, which seems to be working well. But I like the
idea of adding the notification by email when an attempted hack is tried and
then kicking them off site.
and if anyone has seen a hack that bypasses <CF_FILTER> could you share the
information.
I know its not the end all for security.

Where is CF_Input? I cant find it on the Developers exchange.
On a SQL database cant you specify that the user connected to the database
cannot use the DROP command? Wouldn't this be the first line of defense?
