Submission + - Compromised Server?

How should I go about informing the SysAdmin of said server that there may be something wrong with their machine? Should an email to root@IP.OF.OFFENDING.SERVER be enough?"

and if, instead of pirating said content, i'm doing it legitimately - like say HD streaming with Miro on top of maybe watching all my tv episodes via a site like Hulu.com? nothing illegal, but by streaming HD and possibly downloading a *single* linux distro DVD/month I could go over said limits.
not that I think it should be an unlimited data plan, the infrastructure can't handle that... but I'm just saying, it's not as hard as you think, especially when you can stream HD these days...

Submission + - Active glacier found on Mars (bbc.co.uk) 1

Dr Gerhard Neukum (what a cool name :), chief scientist on the spacecraft's High Resolution Stereo Camera said "We have not yet been able to see the spectral signature of water. But we will fly over it in the coming months and take measurements. On the glacial ridges we can see white tips, which can only be freshly exposed ice". Estimates place the glacier at 10,000 — 100,000 years old."
