Hi All!
Here is a curly question for you all. Is it possible that if a machine is
hooked into ADSL, it can be hacked and the drive initialised?
Yes.
We have a customer that is hooked into ADSL. He says that while he was
online, the machine crashed with a type 1 error. When he tried to reboot, a
flashing question mark appeared. He brought the machine into the store.
After booting off a Diskwarrior CD, we noticed that the drive had now been
called 'Untitled' and was empty.
Does this sound at all possible?
Yes, that's possible.
The leap from that to 'someone broke in and hacked my machine' is
somewhat nebulous though.
Have fun,
Shay (Remembering Chicken Little)
