No, we don't know that for a fact at all - especially the last part. |

| If someone wants to lay claim to some cyber-terrorism, then I say we should indulge them and take it at face value. |

I saw some posts on another board referring to the search option as being an open door for attacking a site. But what site doesn't have a search button? Are they all vulnerable to mischief? I think some goofs are trying to puff up themselves by claims based on wishful (vengeful) thinking. They are trying to capitalize by claiming to be responsible.
Can you do a search for all vowels or the alphabet, all posts and bring down a site (for example)? Can you input a virus? If so then the writers of this popular program have some work to do. Many sites use phpBB.
If not then the idiots claiming to be responsible (and there are a few) are just the silly imps they appear to be. |

I was told by a very reliable source that it was hackers. I believe it, especially since I fell victim to it myself when I posted something and instead of what I wrote, some other message that was filled with hate mongering crap was posted. I couldn't edit it or tell anyone what had happened. When I emailed Dave Sperling about it and asked him about the hacking, all he said was, "who told you that?". Can lack of denial be considered a confirmation?
Anyways, immediately following this posting that I made, my firewall started deflecting a shit load of strange activity which included packets that contained some nasty trojans and scripts. I rebooted, cleaned my internet tracks (cookies, etc.), and everything died down. |

I agree. But is it true? Is that what happened? Or is Dave's explanation of software and hardware upgrades the truth. Who hasn't had that problem?
Will we ever know?

Nice imagery. And far closer to the truth than the banned weirdos are claiming.  |
