Well, common sense would agree with you. but in the UK it is all about intent. case law would also seem to suggest that it is not the intent of the attack that is involved, it would seem to be more the intent that the vitim percives... (not knowing much about law i do not know how this scans across to other sections of the law.) An example is: - http://news.zdnet.co.uk/internet/security/0,39020375,39226548,00.htm I dont know how this relates across international borders or in other countries. i dunno though, just my 2p Cheers S.
