(CNN) -- Hackers posted online what they say is login information for more than 
450,000 Yahoo users.
The hack, which of course was conducted anonymously, was meant to be a warning, 
according to the Web page where the documents were dumped.
"We hope that the parties responsible for managing the security of this 
subdomain will take this as a wake-up call, and not as a threat," a note on the 
page said. "There have been many security holes exploited in Web servers 
belonging to Yahoo! Inc. that have caused far greater damage than our 
disclosure. Please do not take them lightly."


Now - no flaming.  Some on our list are not aware of these types of issues.
