I'm almost scared to ask, what is the difference between using capslock and shift? It seems like too much effort for me, but how could it affect a program?

Unsure why but our company laptops are locked down by Safeguard and all passwords use a random combination of upper case characters and numbers, if the user holds down shift while entering the characters it will not be accepted, if they enter it with capslock on it is fine. Perhaps the fine denizens of Slashdot could explain why.

I don't see hacking, I only noticed the domain won't resolve. So its back to ddos again, as always. Lame; guess the only "inteligence" here is that they seem to have targeted the DNS server.

Totally not impressed here.

That's only because NI went scorched earth and took down all their NI UK based websites. There are screenshots and videos floating about the net

With all the high profile attacks and leaking private info of companies then attacking FBI and other law enforcement agencies I bet his looking for a lifetime sentence. Serves him right.

This is the UK. Should he be someone from lulzsec and if they have a decent amount of evidence to prove he was a main player I'd say he'll get 2-3 years max and likely out in 12-18 months for good behaviour

I'd disagree. I'm no great understander (new word by the way) of geopolitics but since the cold war has died there has been quite a few countries liberated from communist powers, who are you to say that Korea wouldn't have been one of them. Who knows, maybe they'd have become a shining light of democracy and even forced China into a brave new world.

Slavic ? I take Slavic to mean someone of Eastern/Central European origin of which Iceland most certainly isn't Of course you may mean something else , I hope to be educated if I'm wrong
