Anyone confirm that Altavista's home page was hacked today ? About 10:30 am EST I went there and found their "usual home page" included in a page that said hello to some hackers and had some small message about the page being hacked. When I got back to checking it at 15:00 EST that page was gone and the "usual Altavista home page" had returned. George J.

The hacked page was not Digital's Altavista page, it was Altavista Technologies (www.altavista.com) page who has a link to the real Altavista page which is (altavista.digital.com). Please be sure when reporting these things to major groups such as NANOG that you are pointing to the correct site, you caused a couple of us to leave our BBQ's on Labor Day. Have a good Labor Day ... -phil ====================================================== Philip Steffora steffora@pa.dec.com Operations Mgr.
