QUOTE=Archie Moses;198596]It was for a friend who's company got multiple things hacked like email, website, and facebook page. They were offering a $500 dollar reward for anyone who knew how to trace the ip address so I figured I'd ask. He says the FBI is working on it now so no worries.
OK, let's talk about other types of hacks now.
Where the hell is that Vinylone guy?[/QUOTE]
Probably in LA. You have to admit, caring about Utah from LA takes a lot of concentration. He's probably kicked his obsession with the JazzFanz for good.
I'm aware that there are a lot of professional-grade tools "out there", some stolen from the orignators who might in some cases have developed the tools to manage their software/servers/aps, debugging the damage hackers can do and such. I liked the story that went on the net about a year ago about a hacker whose personal computer was stolen. He got his tools out, and located his computer online, and gathered information on the activities of the thief, even his location in a Vegas apartment, and gave the police all they needed to arrest him, and sent out pics of the thief and totally trashed him online.
I'm sure the HSA and FBI have a lot of those tools, but they won't blow the dust off your complaint. They're too busy snooping around and making huge files on everyone who is so mentally unstable they try to have online lives. . . .

The last one has three parts and essentially outlines how to find anyone you want to mess with. Concludes with the statement "Privacy is Dead"
