Another 'Minor Incident' at Microsoft

According to reports on eWeek, Microsoft has apparently fallen victim to another hacker attack. This one however, has been reduced to the hacking of a "retired server that was being used for redirection" according to officials at Microsoft. The Dutch hacker, going under the name Dimitri, claims he accessed several of Microsoft's servers using an exploit in the companies ISS software. Microsoft refutes that, claiming he only accessed one small server. Even worse, Dimitri then posted the news on the events.microsoft.com bulletin board on Friday. The message the hacker wanted to get across simply read "Hack the Planet!". Read the ZDNet story for more information.
