An Internet computer server operated by an Arkansas government agency was transformed last weekend into the online home of dozens of videos featuring Osama bin Laden, Islamic jihadist anthems and terrorist speeches.
State government officials removed the files from a computer operated by the Arkansas Highway and Transportation Department shortly after they were discovered, a government spokesman said. The case highlights an increasing trend of hackers hijacking vulnerable Web servers for the purpose of advocating radical political and terrorist ideologies.
Links to the files were posted to a message board of a group called al Ansar. The Web site features photos of bin Laden, leader of the al Qaeda terrorist network, and the Sept. 11, 2001, hijackers, as well as basic facts about the tenets of Islam and links to chatrooms and other Islamic Web sites. The person who posted the links identified himself as "Irhabi 007"-- or "Terrorist 007" -- said Laura Mansfield, who tracks pro-al Qaeda Web sites for Northeast Intelligence Network, an Erie, Pa.-based private group of analysts that monitors the Internet for terrorist activity.

It's particularly disgusting watching someone like you gloat over the success of Al Queda in hacking US websites.
Which is exacty what you are doing. Nevermind the fact that patches certainly already exist for whatever vulnerability was exploited, or that the admins didn't protect their FTP configuration or passwords. No, you'd rather jump around and cheer, apparently.
"...and don't fergit Bills Presidential Liebrary"
In Arkansas, wouldn't that be liebary?
You posted an article claiming that since the democrats run websites on linux, all linux users must be leftists/democrats. Using your "logic," all windows users must be islamic terrorists. If that sounds stupid to you, you're learning - much more than anyone ever hoped for.
That's not what article said nor did I, my point is consistently that "Democrats", socialists, and communists the world over are rallying behind open source products like Linux to the point of passing laws requiring some to use it. And there's plenty of proof of it, while your only laughable defense of them is to claim all Windows users must be islamic terrorists when there's obviously no relation. Your buddy JunkYard is now down to cheering on Al Queda when they hack Microsoft based websites. It would be funny if it wasn't so repulsive.
Amazing how you can read stuff that isn't there.
BS. Everyone saw your gleeful "Bump!"
LMAO. True 'dat.
