It was on a site (hacking site with heavy traffic) and they posted to the competition. The site was shut down last wednesday in an effort to avoid widespread knowledge of this potentionally dangerous (for e-business) contest. So the asshole media (CNN) decides to cover this and includes ALL the contest details. So now they just got even more publicity. CNN Execs = AOL Users = Smacktards. math doesn't lie :lol: ----------------------------------- ShadowStorm Sun Jul 06, 2003 10:48 am ----------------------------------- but u do.. 8) ----------------------------------- krishon Sun Jul 06, 2003 11:30 am ----------------------------------- haha, yah...CNN is the worst...maybe we should have a contest to hack their networks :lol: ----------------------------------- Amailer Mon Jul 07, 2003 10:37 am ----------------------------------- http://sf.net/ I think it had got hacked :0 it was down whole morning ( BLANK PAGE ) from 5:00 - 7:00am ----------------------------------- JSBN Mon Jul 07, 2003 10:43 am ----------------------------------- heh ----------------------------------- PaddyLong Mon Jul 07, 2003 10:43 am ----------------------------------- I doubt it...
