From what I remember they get the pleasure of giving Roy sleepless nights and dipping into the sites resources to correct their harm.

I think though there is a pattern emerging, the last time they were successful, he was out of the country and this time they are attacking he is...

Out of the country.

At least this time he should have a better internet connection, but I bet he still gets some sleepless nights sorting this out.

There are some divvies knocking about, its just a pity that some one who obviously has computer skills, decides to descend into causing havoc when no doubt they could earn a good living from using there skills in a positive way

Well there have been some high profile cases, none more that the guy who hacked the Pentagon, why would you want to hack the Pentagon unless you were engaged in terrorism which this geek obviously wasn't

Although these people appear to have intelligence, they waste it causing havoc for the rest of the www.
It seems the harder the hack the greater you are in the eyes of your peers.
I suspect the pentagon wasn't too difficult for him, probably logged on as the head of CIA and used the name of his pet tortoise for a password.
(If I disappear from site, I can only assume I guessed the correct password), So Jay I'll say this in my best American female accent,

Goodbye!

Update, I've just received an email from someone claiming to be the head of the CIA asking how I cottened on to their latest password upgrade so quickly.

It must be genuine because,
He went on to ask if I could suggest something a little more difficult to use next time.

Well that career didn't last long,
I suggested,

But they've rejected it because the password is more than four characters long, contains capitals & numbers!

Is anyone else having a problem this evening?
Accyweb is really slow at laoding pages.......it has been like this for the last hour or so.
Every other website I have been on is OK........but Accyweb is going at a snails pace.
Grrrrrrrrrrrr!
