hacking

Some months ago I read Countdown to Zero Day by Kim Zetter. This book and how much I enjoyed reading it shows just how much of a computer geek I am. I have used and programmed computers since I was eight years old. When I was a teenager I started to become interested in viruses and hacking.

If you visited this site during a three day period in the middle of July you would have found it to consist of a single page supporting the liberation of Iraq. I am not a terribly political guy, especially not with foreign politics, so the single page message was not me. Hackers (or script kiddies perhaps) had managed to gain access to my CMS and defaced my blog. Why this site, one that gets two visitors on a good day, I am still unsure. When I noticed I quickly put things back right and figured the events would equate to a source of blog posting material for me.
