This hacker gives other hackers a bad name. Naughty hacker...

A hacker who defaced 13 websites earlier this week and claimed he was working in the interests of a hacker group has been denounced by the group's leader. The hacker claimed to be a member of Young Intelligent Hackers Against Terrorism (YIHAT). The group's leader Kim 'Kimble' Schmitz said that such defacements were against the group's ideology. YIHAT claims to be leading the "cyber-war" against Osama bin Laden. "We don't want anybody to deface websites. Anybody defacing websites in the name of YIHAT is working against our rules," newswires reported. The 13 sites seemed to be chosen at random, including sites such as chat-world.com and connectedu.com. All the sites were defaced with the YIHAT logo and the group's motto "Kill the money sources of terror". But silicon.com has now learned that the YIHAT homepage Kill.net was defaced along with the personal web site of Kim "Kimble" Schmitz. The text on Kill.net site read: "My name is Bin Laden Bunny, I have been waiting for you. You may bomb me and you may nuke me, but you will never ./ me. May Allah be with you."
