Hackers hacked into Bin Laden's PC
HOLLAND, Amsterdam -- Hackers found Osama Bin Laden via the internet. Saturday two 15 years old hackers hacked into the computer of Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden logged out after ten minutes and hasn't been found yet.. Just for the fun two beginner hackers hacked into the FBI most-wanted's person. First they had no idea who they were hacking, but because of some of the files existing on the PC, the two boys knew it had to be an important person. Later it turned out to be Bin Laden himself... The two Dutch boys don't want to tell what was written in the files existing on his PC. The FBI expects they will tell more about it soon. Since Bin Laden logged out, no activity of the PC has been found. The only thing the hackers (D. Scortile and F. molster) told, was that the computer he logged in on had a Dutch version of Windows on the PC.
FBI agents, who launched a criminal investigation, interviewed family members, friends and neighbors, hoping to retrace Lundgren's movements during the past month. Lundgren died Wednesday at Griffin Hospital in Derby, the same day the CDC confirmed she had inhalation anthrax. She became the nation's 18th such case since early October. There have been 11 inhalation cases and seven cutaneous -- or skin -- cases. Her case puzzles investigators because she had no known connection to government offices, postal facilities or news outlets, which have been tied to all but two of the other 17 anthrax cases. "There is mystery to this case," Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson said Wednesday. "We do not know how she was exposed to anthrax." The CDC said Wednesday evening that the anthrax strain that infected Lundgren is indistinguishable from the strain detected in all the other cases of infection in the United States. A CDC spokeswoman also said this strain responds to all antibiotics used against it. Suffering from an upper-respiratory tract infection, Lundgren was taken Friday by a family member to the Griffin Hospital emergency room in Derby, said Patrick Charmel, the hospital's president. Based on her symptoms, including a rapid deterioration in her condition, doctors suspected anthrax within hours and began conducting tests and treating her for the illness, Charmel said. Doctors said the woman's advanced age complicated efforts to save her. Derby Mayor Marc Garofalo said an anthrax scare Wednesday afternoon turned out to be a false alarm when preliminary tests on a suspicious envelope came back negative for anthrax. "The hospital will be returned immediately to its normal status," he said Wednesday evening. Before Lundgren's death, Connecticut Gov. John Rowland said he didn't believe the woman was a "target of terrorism." One possibility investigators are considering is that Lundgren may have received a piece of contaminated mail from Washington, where several government offices -- including a large postal distribution center -- have been contaminated with anthrax. Another angle investigators are exploring is whether Lundgren -- who led a limited social life -- had anything in common or crossed paths with Kathy Nguyen, a New York City hospital worker whose death from inhalation anthrax has also perplexed authorities because of no known connection to possible government or media targets. "She's homebound," Rowland said during his earlier comments. "She's been to, I understand, literally the post office and maybe even the beauty salon. That's been about it for the last few weeks. "So this is a very remote case, similar to the worker in New York that had inhalation anthrax and unfortunately passed away." Lisa Bull, an FBI spokeswoman in Connecticut, said investigators are "trying to button down a timeline going back approximately 30 days" for Lundgren. The governor said two postal facilities sent mail to the woman's address in Oxford. "We checked both the Seymour and Wallingford post offices as late as November 11 to determine if there were any anthrax traces," Rowland said. "Both of them came up clean. So we're going to go back to those two post offices, and we will also make available antibiotics to any of the postal workers in those two facilities." The governor encouraged the 1,500 postal employees at the two facilities to begin taking medicine Wednesday "for peace of mind and for precautionary purposes." He said employees at the beauty salon where the woman frequented also would be treated. Rowland emphasized the case appeared to be an aberration. "This is an isolated case," he said. "We have no other reason to believe that anybody else has been impacted." ![]() |
