The former Chief Strategist of Netscape - Kevin Coleman - has warned that we are at great risk in business, government and industry. Why is it we never listen to the experts before it is too late?

Yeah, I consider the best part of the article to be the payload samples. I wish more people had commented on that part of the article. I know, I know -- totally nerdy. Your paper is quite thorough on the attacks on pro-Tibetan groups. Those of you reading this article should take the time to check it out! Thanks for your kind comment, Peter.

Thanks for another great article Allan! It always seems so wrong when nonprofits are attacked in this way. In my work with orgs, I sometimes deal with the above and also cruel site hackers too.

Anybody who does any kind of advocacy has to watch out especially if they might have foes that have infowar capabilities. I really hate the idea of using code to disrupt human relationships that bind people together and as technologists we should definitely speak out about this.

I'm sharing this with our staff now... at least the part before the explanation of the VB code, that is. It's important to remember that these attacks not only affect the direct target, but disrupt the networks of organizations and individuals that support them, which is why this issue matters to all of us. -b Thanks for the post, Allan.
