Instead of the usual description of Kevin Mitnick, his consulting services and books, the famed hacker's Web site on Sunday displayed a vulgar message.

Online vandals, apparently operating from Pakistan, broke into the computer hosting Mitnick's Web site on Sunday and replaced his front page with one of their own. As a result, four Web addresses belonging to Mitnick, including KevinMitnick.com and MitnickSecurity.com, displayed an explicit message on Mitnick and hacking.

Talk about Irony -

Sorry to hear about this happening to anyone , But this is definitely Ironic.

It is isn't it? I don't understand why he would not host his own sites, pay for his own servers so he would had total control of any possible security issues.

Kevin's likely chuckling at this time. Nothing like this to remind himself to stay on
top of the game.

He's one of the "good-guys" now, yes?
