http://www.msnbc.com/news/417406.asp?cp1=1 [I like editing MSNBC stories for ISN as much as I like root-canal therapy without Novicane & Nitrous Oxide, So I'm going to use the blurb from Space Rogue's excellent Hacker News Network: http://www.hackernews.com -WK] The thief who stole credit card numbers from CD Universe is still at large but even if tracked down it is unlikely he could be prosecuted. The evidence collected in the case was not handled properly. Chain of custody was broken. Network Associates, Kroll OGara and Infowar.com were all involved in the investigation of CD Universe's network. This case highlights the need to do proper computer foresnics. A poor job is useless. *-------------------------------------------------* "Communications without intelligence is noise; Intelligence without communications is irrelevant." Gen. Alfred. M.
