I wonder if those guys paid for their version of Flash. :D:D



Isn't it kind of dumb for him to put his email address on the page?

I seriously doubt that thats his own email address. Its more likely the email address of someone he dislikes very much...

I highly doubt that they paid for the Flash.

Also, the addy is for a Hotmail account. Seriously, how hard is it to make a new, fake e-mail address for a singular purpose? I know that a lot of us have and admitted that we have spam e-mail addresses.

Also, the only way they could really track the hacker is through his e-mail account (if they could get MS to cooperate) or through the actual hacking. Also, that's only if he has a static IP also, and aren't there methods to relay the IP?

For instance, hack into another person's computer and use that as your &quot;base&quot; and hack from there? I don't know too much about hacking but this is just what I'm thinking.

AncientPC:
I think they could also track him with a dynamic IP Address, b/c the ISP has for sure logged, which IP address was used by who.
