SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - An 18-year-old hacker who breached computers
at Sandia National Laboratories and posted an anti-Israeli message on
the Eglin Air Force Base Web site was sentenced Thursday to a year and
a day in federal prison.

Adil Yahya Zakaria Shakour also was ordered to pay $88,253 in
restitution, and his computer use was restricted during the three
years he will spend under supervised release after his prison term.

Shakour, a Pakistani national who lives in Los Angeles, pleaded guilty
in March to computer and credit card fraud charges.

Shakour penetrated the Florida air base's computer server repeatedly
in April and May 2002, altering the Web page to denounce the Israeli
advance into Palestine.

Damage to the air base computer system was estimated at $75,000, while
more than $2,700 in damage was done to the Sandia Laboratories Web
site in Livermore.

Shakour also hacked two other computer systems, including Mathews,
N.C.-based Cheaptaxforms.com, where he obtained credit card
information and bought more than $7,000 worth of items.
