Bad script kiddie...
| Quote | Accused hacker denies link to 'elite' group
October 14, 2003, 16:05 BST
The teenager accused of bringing down a major US port's computer systems in a denial of service attack was part of an "elite" hacking group, a court heard yesterday.
Aaron Caffrey, 19, claims that his computer was hijacked by two hackers known as Dry Ice and Friction using a Trojan horse to remotely control his PC without his knowledge.
Caffrey was arrested last year after US police traced a denial of service attack that crashed the Port of Houston's website in Texas to a computer at Caffrey's home in Shaftesbury, Dorset.
Giving evidence yesterday at Southwark Crown Court, Caffrey said he had seen evidence of Dry Ice and Friction's hacking ability in scripts for Zombies and Trojan Horses in a chatroom on a .tv domain that the two hackers had set up using stolen credit cards.
But the prosecution counsel said Caffrey had coded a Unicode exploit denial of service tool and put links to a compressed version of the file his own website under the banner "Allied Haxor Elite".
Caffrey said he put the hacking group name up just to annoy other hackers and said the files were just "resource scripts" that allowed people to change the font and type of text in chatrooms and add more visual features.
"If it [the script] was there, it didn't contain anything to do with denial of service and even if it did it wouldn't be illegal. It's perfectly legal to have one," he said.
An expert witness for the prosecution last week dismissed Caffrey's claims that his PC had been hijacked. The witness said there was no evidence of an attack and that it was technically impossible for a hacker to remove all traces of having planted or altered data on the computer.
When the prosecution put this to Caffrey again yesterday he said: "The technology exists and I can even explain how it works."
Caffrey has pleaded not guilty to unauthorised modifications of a computer contrary to Section 3 of the Computer Misuse Act 1990.
The case continues.

But in their eyes they are l33t, when he gets away with this he will still consider himself l33t. I think its very doubtful that he will get a custodial(sp) sentence for this unless someone decides to make an example of him, even then he'll proably have broadband internet access and a free lunch.
Stick him in front of a C or ASM development suite and he'll probably start with
10 print "I'm l33t"
20 goto 10
Wonder why it doesn't work then disregard it as irrelevant.
I'm sure Dry Ice and Friction won't be best pleased that there names are plastered throughout a court case.
Time to look over your shoulder, I think so. |

What do you do?

the "attacks" are most likely just port scans by remote computers |

MSM's cover story is that he is a university student. However he has enough weapons to start, sustain and win a small war - he is a profesional hit man. |

Hackers blow chucks, here is why:
| Quote | After a hard day at the office, three guys decide to go out for a CENSORED tail to wind down. The bar becomes very crowded, a few drinks turns into many and soon everyone is tanked. All three lose track of each other and end up going home separately.
The next day at the office, the three gather by the watercooler to discuss the past evenings events. The first guy says, "I was so drunk last Saturday I threw up in the bar's toilet, puked all over the cab on the way home and finally blew chunks for about half an hour on the front lawn."
The second guy pipes in, "That's nothing. I got so drunk that I got in my car and drove it right into a telephone pole. Totaled it. I didn't get hurt but now I have no car."
The third guy says, "Well, I got so drunk that when I got home, I cussed my girlfriend out and knocked over a candle which lit the apartment on fire. She dumped me, all my belongings are destroyed and my insurance won't cover the damage."
The first guy motions the two to come closer and whispers, "I'm not sure you understand. Chunks is my dog."

Just so you know they are not neccesarily hackers lol. Some websites ect with try to install things on your computer without you knowing and to do that they need to get by your nortan system works. That has been known to set off the socalled hacker alarm.
Also this kid is not a Eliet Hackor lol what a [Censored] ing Script Kiddiot that is what he is.
It is people like him and computer crackers that give hackers the bad name.
