BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) - Hackers broke into the Hungarian National Security Office's Web site and posted an anti-U.S. message supporting Osama bin Laden, state-run radio reported Tuesday.

Istvan Simicsko, the deputy minister overseeing the Hungarian security services, told state radio hackers posted a message Monday that read ``Bin Laden vs. Bush: 1-0'' and linked last month's terrorist attacks in New York and Washington to U.S. sanctions against some Arab states.

The hackers, who called themselves the ``Steves,'' also sharply criticized U.S.-led multinational companies and the U.S. attack on Hiroshima.

The message was posted on the publicly accessible part of the security office's Web page. The office's secret database remained secure, Simicsko said.

The message was removed a few hours after it was posted.

I know it has been requested by the government not to do it but I have been told by a computer geek that the North American hackers have joined together as a group known as 'north american hackers' and are just causing havic in Iran, and Iraq. Is it wrong? I don't know and just thought I would put this out.
