Hacker infiltrates Government computers

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The FBI confirmed Tuesday the accuracy of a New York Times report that software on routers, computers that control the Internet, were compromised last year by a hacker who claimed that he had infiltrated systems serving U.S. military installations, research laboratories, and NASA.

I highly doubt he got much. Sounds like he bagged a few windows machines.
"My other computer is your Windows box."

Gotta love how the more complex and advanced technology becomes, the easier it is to compromise.

>and Cisco routers have been perpetually vulnerable since before they were Cisco.
