h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Well at the moment that site doesn't look like its up to much, but what most people don't believe is that I was actually paid to hack in to computer systems.

Oh, I believe it! Why do you think Al-Jazeera's website disappeared after they posted pics of American PoWs? Someone gets paid to stop websites doing things like that...

I don't think the group I worked in had anything to do with that. Thats hacking into other peoples systems and deleting files, what I do is quite different, I hack into the computer systems of the company I work for, and then report any flaws I find back to my manager who then deals with them. Its another form of advanced security and maintenaince

Aha. Yeah, I understand. The same sort of thing the people who release the security advisories for linux do, then.

Yes

Hmm, how much of this thread is about your pending guru-hood?

What do you mean by that?

Sounds like I'm not needed here...

I don't mean anything by it, Aries... we've just gone off topic a bit, that's all...

And you are needed/wanted here, Mina!

Well it is Thursday and we was just talking to pass the time.

I did what you suggested and started posting to the suggestion threads.

You did, well done, and I hope that you continue.

I'm going to make you a Guru! Congratulations. Just give me ten minutes to sort out your badge and a few other bits and pieces.

Don't worry I will , and thanks. Owl if you want to carry on our talk then you can start a new conversation on my page.

Congratulations , Aries. And I have.
