If here someone use programs to steal otherones datas, destroy their hard drive or what so ever, will be which is punishable by imprisonment of 3 years (freedomly) I can't believe that it isn't illegal to destroy other's hard drive. Isn't it forbidden by the statue book?

For instance, most current e-mail based viruses will lie on the From: line - so if you send a virus back to that address, all you've done is sent a virus to some unsuspecting third person.

It's equally problematic to counter-hack a network-based virus, where you think you know the IP address it came from (again, not a sure thing for a UDP-based attack). All you do there is send some poor user who's already got ONE virus another one - you're not doing anything about the *real* problem (the virus author), but just making life twice as bad for some poor victim.

And there's the very real issue that your counter-hack might cause even more damage than intended - like if it's an improperly secured PC at a hospital that controls an X-ray machine. Yes, such things *do* happen - do you really want to be the person who caused the machine to blue-screen at a bad time, and kill somebody?

Yeah ,I know you cant do counter attacks, but man wouldnt it be nice to root the bastards outs. I'm not exp enough to handle that kinda shit so I pretty much stay away. Its good to know where one is in case somebody really jacks me off.

I'm not encouraging anyone but,
