Ok, so they are intelligent fools!
I'm sure they do us all a great service. Just like criminals allow the police force to improve.
It's like saying thieves are great people cos it allows the development of burglar alarms.
Hackers do NOBODY ANYWHERE any kind of service- they are a bunch of geeks who spend all their time figuring out complex stuff and then to prove how clever they are, use it to cause problems for others.
They ought to get out, get some friends and maybe (if they have the courage)get a girl friend. |

By Wetlook - Wetlook@yahoo.com Sun 09/02/03 05:43:52 GMT Hackers are not idiots!, do people even realize how important they are?, many sites today would not be as secure as they are if it were'nt for hackers. Regarding the idea that they are'nt intellegent or are wasting their time, remember it's a challenge to them and the human mind loves challenges. Also if you think writing viruses or hacking is easy, well you obviously don't know much about networks, protocols and programming. Lastly viruses are merely programs that never complete, they constantly take up more and more resources with algorithms that have O(n^2) or O(n!) complexities. |

By Kev - kev.styx@ntlworld.com Sat 08/02/03 02:52:03 GMT I think hackers make themselves look idiots without having to do too much.
These sad little people can think of absolutely nothing positive to do with their talents (?) except try to destroy what other people put together. They are the same sort of scum who devise viruses.
Clearly they have started things, not Styx.
In terms of shutting things down, so far one site has been closed and three people are in the process of having their internet connections closed by their telecoms company.
So it is these pathetic people who are moronic- not the rest of us for laughing at them.

By Wetlook - Wetlook@yahoo.com Fri 07/02/03 11:19:28 GMT Although you think that your current site is secure, please don't be moronic. If you make hackers feel like their the idiots they might start to do things to your website that are detremental. So, yes, your making a couple of bucks from hackers attempting access, but what will you say when someone accidentally shuts down your site?, for a minute, a day, a week, be careful with your words! |

By Kev - kev.styx@ntlworld.com Thu 06/02/03 07:40:12 GMT Website: www.styxwetworld.com It appears that, despite several comments about the amount of free material available "out there", that some members of the community cannot help but try to steal even more.
Styxwetworld has been subjected to relentless hacking attacks by a small number of this community. It started within 2 hours of the site going live (and announcement on this forum)- it's therefore obvious that they are from this community
Some days we get as many as 30,000 attempts to log on in 30 minutes.
However we monitor the situation and everytime they get get close we change a member's username, so they have to start again.
Beside that, we have some special software running. After four attempts their robot diallers are actually connected through to url's which pay us 1 cent per "click though".
So a 30,000 log on attack actually earns Styx, $30.
So, maybe they have been feeling really clever up until now. But I guess they are feeling really stupid having read this.
If any other webmasters would like information concerning this software, because this is no doubt happening to you too, then please email me for info. Might be a good idea to earn money whilst these jerks are trying to hack your sites.
To the hackers- could you please try to arrange your attacks with 50,004 attempts- this earns us an exact $50 and makes the accounting so much simpler- thank you : )
We would just like to add that we really appreciate that you want to use your computer resources, time and energy to earn money for Styx. Maybe to ones who make us $500, we will offer free membership to the site. LOL LOL LOL
