How did Anonymous pull it off? Through a combination of hacking knowledge and simple chicanery. The group broke into HBGary's email server, and then used an email that looked like it came from the company's cofounder Greg Hoglund to convince a system admin to divulge passwords.
Are you SERIOUS?

I mean props to them getting into the e-mail system but getting the end result through those means is laughable.

Damn, they completely and utterly destroyed that company in one weekend.
NOBODY"S doing business with an internet security company that can't even keep themselves safe.

Exactly, they didn't even have to do any work, really.

E-mail protocol #1: Do not give out your password information via e-mail, even if someone of 'authority' asks. That's the first thing anyone will tell you.

If anyone is interested here's the IRC transcript between the Anon higher ups and the CEO's of HB.

It's a fantastic but long read.
