The latests being irc.vel.net, irc.mzima.net, and irc.nac.net all part of EFNet. Using ns1.sd.cox.net the lookup returns an ip for what looks to be a script that forces the user into a channel and issues a set of commands to clean the drones. There have been different reports of other irc networks being hijacked and other dns servers involved. Is this the right way to handle this? Is hijacking DNS illegal?"

I bought a Playstation, bought RE2 after deciding FF7 wasn't for me. I tried playing it, frustrated with the controls and the zombies biting me. Scared me pretty bad in that I gave up playing it and I was only 1 minute into the game. My neighbors in college picked it up and played in my room. All of the sudden, while I was there, he shrieked out very loud. Not to insult the ladies, but he literally sounded like a girl. I didn't experience it first hand, but I sure had a good laugh.
