1) We had a mornic President and thank god Clinton could not run again.
2) Learn to spell.
3) ID theft is a real problem as we see from this news. The President did not cause this, it has been around form many many years. Since Al Gore invented the internet. Not to mention that fact the Greenspan even stated that Social Security was screwed and would need fixed. To me, that should be the warning sign to DemoRats arcoss this country.
4) What would you have done to "correct" the problem with Saddam? Apply more sanctions? It did not work pal. He was making big jack and did so for many years. The UN is a bunch of crooks. He (Saddam) would have gotten the sanctions lifted and then went off and build himself a nice little A-bomb. Then, that little sucka would end up in our back yard.
But, help is on the way. Hillary Clinto appears to be gearing up for a run to the White House, so all you DemoRats out here can go run out and vote for her. She will do an "excellent" job for the DemoRat party. hehe

You have no fucking clue do you? Lexis makes money by allowing customers to search there systems. If you lock them after so many searches, you are shooting yourself in the foot.
Some people out here are fucking worthless morons.
Hey... ID theft happens and there is not alot that can be done about it. I cannot believe that it would take someone soooo long to figure that out.
If your on the internet, then your ID can be jacked! Period! Got it! No amount of firewalls, IPS, IP "locking", monitoring or anything else will stop it from happening. All you can do is hope you are logging the info so you can "try" to go after the people when it happens.

Lamo was busted for hacking into a company's systems. He "hacked" the New York Times and accessed LN through there network.
He was not given the authority to test the systems at the NY Times, he just did it on his own. That makes him a "cracker" or black hat.
Plus, he accessed a system that charges based on the number of searches you conduct. He racked up over $300,000 in charges using this search engine. Again, another fraudulant action aginst him.
In the end, he had a smack on the hand and a fine. He will probably get out of jail and get some job talking about infosec and write a book. Kevin Mitnick will take him under his wing and they will all go to happy hacker heaven.
Yeah yeah... well what about the security people who put in there time and work hard to protect these systems? These "cracker" are looked up to, and the people who work 15 hours a day get crapped on! That is BS!
I say "screw Lamo!" He got off easy, and in the end he will make a pile of money for being a bad guy and the admins will keep on putting out fires that he helped start.
To all the admins out here that read this... "Cheers to you":)
