Hack or Glitch?

Ok so my Dad was playing a game of SC and he said that when the map loaded(Was supposed to be BGH, real Blizz Version), it didn't ever load, just a blank black screen but with the normal bottom part of the screen.  Then he said that when he tried to leave it would just dump him back into the game and he couldn't disconnect himself.  In the end, he had to kill the star.exe process in the task manager.  So do we think this was some massive random bug in starcraft or some crazy ass hack that fucks up the game to piss people off?

Sounds like a glitch to me.

Most likely those 1/1000000 bugs. Try to reproduce if you can.

Islam is a steaming pile of fucking dog shit. Everything about it is flawed, anybody who believes in it is a terrorist, if you disagree with me, then im sorry your wrong.

Why don't you stop being American and start acting like a decent human?

My Dad is actually very good at Starcraft, so is my brother.  I wasn't even there so i can't reproduce it and if i was i would have taken some screen shots.

This went in General Programming because if it was a hack it far outstretches my understanding of programming but my father seemed to believe it was and he is like ungodly certified in everything.

If it were a hack, it probably just did something to trigger a glitch.

Sure it was the proper BGH Blizzard Approved? Because some maps can be made to crash StarCraft when load them, so it's probable that the glitch came from a corrupted map.
