A Reporter friend of my sister's is doing a story on viruses, hackers, 
computers etc. I offered to ask the net for information. Amusing stories, not
so amusing stories, explanations of the motivation to hack (if you are a hacker)

This is your chance to educate (or disinform) the general public. I will be 
giving him the responses without reference as to whom they come from. 
Unfortunately time is short, he wants the info by early next week.

Please EMAIL your responses, (DO NOT POST) to me.

	thanks in advance
