good one Spiderpig (about rootkit)

good one, Spiderpig
to people who don't know, or don't remember...
some times ago, many Sony music cds were installing rootkit, without user consent...to "protect" the way you "should" play music. but some security firme discover it, and sony had to stop doing it.

this is how hackers and virus programmers have found a new way to hide virus/trojan...via rootkit.

It could be worse

Imagine if the mischevious hackers installed a root kit on your computer without your knowledge. Now that would be nasty.

sony's comment

I don't see it in the article. I don't think they've been hacked at all.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
