Today an Iranian hacker breached into website of the University of Oregon and posted message against President Obama. The message was in the website for around one and hald hour before the university people noticed and fixed the site.
Today, Iranian hackers brought the cyberwar to the U.S. -- to the website of the University of Oregon, to be exact.This morning, visitors to the university's site were redirected to a screed against President Obama on a page purportedly belonging to "NobodyCoder From Iran."
"Hey Stupid Fly Catcher Obama! Stop talking about Iran and telling to your dogs (UK, France, Germany) to talk about Iran and Iran Election," read the message.
It continued, "We never cheated in elections and even Moosavi knows that. So stop this stupid things! OK????"
The message was up for about an hour and a half before the university noticed and repaired the breach.
It is unknown why the supposed Iranian hacker chose the University of Oregon website to deliver his message to Obama.

No big surprise, since they are blaming everybody and his uncle for their problems. BUT, 'hackers' have been attacking the Iranian government websites including Ahmad...jah's, by denial of service. Here's one down. what's cute is the french server conveniently provides a list that 'hackers' can progress to.
Basically requested to pull up the site, and periodically refresh, in a separate window from the rest of your browsing. enuff people do it and bam! DDoS.
Bunches of forums for Iranians and for ex-pats and others to help. One is tweetgrid, another iran.whyweprotest.net.
