Mathaba.Net forces MI5 to change phones
MI5 is to change its phone number after a security breach allowed agents' names and 
details of intelligence gathering operations, as well as its own contact details, to 
be posted on the internet.
A top-secret document giving the main switchboard number, fax number and high-security 
government telephone network number appeared on sites as far afield as America, London 
[censor: changed to "India!"] and Malaysia - where internet service providers are 
beyond the reach of British jurisdiction.

The confidential phone number was previously known only to MI5 staff and senior 
Whitehall officials. MI5's switchboard has received calls from web-surfers around the 
world.

MI5 has requested the assistance of the American Federal Bureau of Investigation in 
tracking down and erasing copies of the document from the internet. Officials are 
particularly concerned about the release of details of a hitherto unknown intelligence 
gathering procedure called "telecheck", a system for filtering phone traffic to trace, 
identify and record important calls.

The document was one of a number removed in 1996 from MI5's London headquarters by 
David Shayler, the former MI5 officer, according to a Home Office source. Shayler 
denied posting the document on the web. However, intelligence officials are confident 
that he is the source of the material. .
