well, be reasonable. when the key is hanging right outside the front-door, no thief will try to break in through the back.
What key? What door? This is *not* a private apartment, but a wide open public area. Well, we do have a small cattle-grid (login restriction) to keep off *some* ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3938591.stm ) of the stray sheep (specifically, one buggy spam-bot) that had been trampling our lawn. Non-hoofed mammals that "conquer the grid" to spray some graffiti on the wall certainly don't qualify as *thieves*. Vandals at most. Sorry to disappoint you fellas, but I suspect that in our case, the vandals are not much brighter than those sheep (they leave their cans of paint behind, intact with their customer ID (non anonymized ip address) and a "please call us in case of abuse" phone number ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) from the dyes company ). The "attack" seems to come from the Arabian peninsula rather than north Africa, so my guess is that we have some spoiled teenage copycat on our hands, rather than the original "hackerz". Yeah, it could be a zombie, but I somehow doubt it (just some prejudice against the sophistication level of wiki-spammers - I don't know). I'll hold the complaint form for now (I hope to get some confirmation about recent attacks from same ISP) - but if anyone wants to pursue this, I'll be happy to mail them the relevant links and log entries. I vote we remove noamraph's comment from the bottom of the page, as it seems that our "certificate" is not authentic. p.s. if you're looking for a good laugh, take a look at this "article": http://www.zionismontheweb.org/hackers/experts/team_evil_and_response.htm (the last paragraph, mentioning U.S government and the Mossad is particularly hilarious). :-D AA
