acktivism
The latest buzz word to come out of the digital age. Of course everyone hate Micro$oft, but now that SCO has laid claim to a bunch of Linux source code...well, that was just too much for some people. This whole MyDoom.A virus was all about launching a DOS attach on the SCO website. And it worked...shut down today. MyDoom.B is supposed to shut MS down tomorrow.
So this is being termed the acts of "hacktivists." It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. Or not. More interesting times...
