I hate hackers.

Between viruses and other BS I estimate that in the last 5 years it has cost my little organization about $10,000 US dollars in man-hours, software, and repairs just to deal with this dreck.

If I ever met a hacker in person I would be hard pressed not to beat him to death with my bare hands.

$50,000 where I work in one instance thanks to things like abetterinternet and other infections that allowed an endless stream of still more downloads from like minded sites. It only took ONE moron for it to get loose on the LAN.. Some of our CNC machines were Windows Based.

So.

Let ME help you.

I bet, properly done, I could keep him alive for days in searing, excruciating agony, until at the last minute, (Rest of APALLING description deleted).

They are one step below a spammer..not a BIG step, but...

I feel that way about spammers and spyware creators and somewhat toward hackers.

Unfortunately the media has made the word "hacker" into a bad word. Origionally, in the beginning of the computer days, a Hacker was one who knew his code and hardware/software well and could crunch code like nobodys business; much like what we call a Guru today perhaps. Nowadays, thanks to the media, the work hacker has a negative meaning. Anyway, now we have black hat, white hat and gray hat hackers to differentiate, but the media has soiled what used to be a rather honorary "good work ethic" type of word.
