Without going into details, someone cracked a couple of my accounts
recently and attempted some mischevious pranks... The only reason he
got caught was an error in his/her execution. I do not know if
his/her "error" was on purpose (to make me look bad, which it did
temporarily) or by accident, although I suspect it was the latter
because he was using my account to steal information.
This is the only instance I'm aware of *and* I have NO IDEA how long
this has been going on, however, I sincerely hope that no private
email was forged. I flame enough without having someone else to do it
for me :^) *IF* you have received any email from me recently (like
since the NEW cavers was formed) and doubt its authenticity, feel free
to contact me.
Thank you...
