"Yahoo (Reuters) is reporting that the FBI has caught the guy who stole computers from Wells Fargo. The interesting part is that 'Investigators traced the computer to Krastof when he logged onto his own America Online account at home through one of the stolen computers.' Makes you wonder what sort of hooks the FBI has into AOL or other ISPs and what hardware identification is being transmitted at login."

I'm curious as to how it is they traced this guy just by him connecting...any thoughts? Or atleast how they traced the stolen computer. All i can think of is he connected thru broadband and maybe used the mac address of the nic.

I wonder what they do to you if the HD crashes while your working on a box, as is always the case. Hardware will always die when your working on it.

Good read never the less, as it could help the netpimpz get a gambling op going.

This should help some of us deal with the loss of connectivity.

Scope out the article here

I think using your connection downtime to talk to the gf or wife is the best method of killing time. It's the best way to do get something done that you otherwise don't do and get bitched at about all the time.
