On another note, Does anyone know why the media is so ignorant? They seem to think that Hacking & Phishing is the same thing. NOT! lol
Example: lets say you work for the US Government and have example@.gov email address. If I send you an email with a link asking you to go to some non .gov website to change your password and you are dumb enough to do that and I then login to your account and copy your emails I am not hacking.
Or if a stranger sends you an email attachment and you are dumb enough to open it without scanning it. You were not hacked, your were baited & tricked. I am sick of the media calling it hacking as they are insulting all hackers and all of us webmaster as well. lol
