    oh yeah one other thing Kenny boy,

    Publish this on your lame & insecure website, in all of your replies to my postings all you could do is write backchat or smarta#$ comments, but with no concrete evidence to object, hehehe, you're one twisted nutcase.

    BTW, my occupation is a Systems Security Engineer for Microsoft Windows 2000 & Sun Unix servers, including IIS, WEB & Proxy servers. I'll leave your website running for the next xx days then watch what'll happen to it, hehehe I just love hacking false and shameful websites...

    Your Server web page Internet address is 193.217.98.15
    Your physical adapter/modem address is 20-53-52-43-00-00
    Your physical computer address is 210.50.10.176 on interface 0x2
    Your open port numbers are 34, 194, 80, 121, 10

    I have all this info from your e-mail reply lamer and that's all I need to take you offline..

    I hope for the Aussies sake they are not all as fuckin stupid as this moron. The IP address 210.50.10.176 is HIS IP address, LOL! And the open posrts are HIS open ports. Talk about being a "computer expert", LOL.

    However, I did send a formal complaint to his ISP, and to Hotmail as well. There is always a possibility to find such stupid losers as this little Aussie-boy, and threats like this is actually illigal, so I did send this info to Hotmail abuse and to his ISP. On top of that, my ISP will deal with the Aussie internetprovider personally. Not because any of us fear this sucker, but because we as a principle don't like to be threatened.

    I hope you take care of your customer, since these threats are illigal!

    I blanced the IP addresses to my PC and my own private network, LOL. I don't believe I should give anyone any ideas - but I really don't think it's that easy to "hack" my system. LOL.

    ROFL! This guy doesn't even qualify for "script kiddie" status, and that's a low standard by any measure. I guess he's still scratching his head and wondering how you could run a Web server on port 80 without that port being open :-D

    OTOH, I hope your ISP has been applying the regular II$ fixpack-of-the-day :-)

    Don't sweat this "digital mosquito" whose main credentials are based on Microshaft Software. If there are possible leaks (and there always are in any network) simply ask your ISP about "filters".

    Perhaps they already employ a filtering/security program. Plug all those netbios leaks and openings and if possible, get off microsoft ASAP.

    I have no problems with this at all. I use a router, and when I check my IP - the software checking can't even tell it's a computer there :)

    As for my ISP, I'm pretty sure they have the neccesary security. After all, thie is an ISP that doesn't provide webspace for everyone - but for newspapers. The website is spread between many different servers. Some SQL servers, some IIS servers - this is a complex system - and it's not that easy to fuck it up.

    Parts of that system is behind firewalls as well - and everything is backed up daily. So even IF someone woule manage to make trouble, it would be up running again in a matter of hours.

    Microcrap is too big at the moment, yes. When you rule the world, you get sloppy. Just lokk at another company - Uncle Sam's...
