search engines like google has always been one of the hackers best friends, just like the public whois databases (as long as the services has existed i.e.). another funny thing about the internet today is that every1 makes their own hp. an error i stumble upon quite often is the misconfiguration of the MS Frontpage direct editing thingy (sorry, don't know it's real name).. quite a few pages on the net allows any1 to open the page in MS FP and let them do to it whatever they want. the page doesn't even prompt for a password!... this is many SK's favorite target, thus giving hackers a bad name once again.

(the last page i saw with this kind of error belonged to a University! it probably wouldn't be to hard to make such a system into a slave... they actually got warned about the error, but still they didn't fix it... what r these people thinking!?)
