Hacker-hacker di bawah ini merupakan hacker yang telah ditahan dengan tuduhan criminal. Beberapa dari mereka menjalankan aksi hacker-nya untuk tujuan mencari uang. Sisanya hanya untuk iseng.
Kevin Mitnick mungkin hacker paling terkenal sejagad. The Departement Of Justice di As melabelinya sebagai “buronan criminal computer terbesar dalam sejarah AS.” Bahkan aksinya sempat difilmkan: “Takedown” dan “Freedom Downtime”. Aksi Mitnick pada awalnya hanya meng-hack system kartu otomatis di bis Los Angeles agar dapat bepergian gratis. Kemudian Mitnick merupakan orang pertama yang diburu karena meng-hack ke jaringan computer dan mencuri software di Digital Equipment Corporation. Mitnick sempat tidak diketahui keberadaannya selama 2,5 tahun. Kejatuihannya diawali pada saat ia meng-hack computer temannya sekaligus salah satu hacker ternama, Tsutomu Shimomura.
Mitnick sekarang telah sadar dan menjadi anggota social yang produktif. Setelah menjalani 5 tahun 8 bulan di pengasingan, Mitnick sekarang menjadi ahli keamanan computer, konsultan dan pembicara
Kemudian Adrian Lamo yang sempat menjebol perusahaan besar seperti Microsoft dan The New York Times. Lamo menggunakan koneksi internet dari café-café, Kinko dan perpustakaan, dan Lamo mendapat julukan “The Homeless Hacker”. Lamo juga sering menemukan celah keamanan pada software-software ternama dan menjebolnya. Karena ulahnya menjebol jaringan The New York Times, Lamo menjadi incaran teratas pihak keamanan dan diharuskan membayar US$65.000 sebagai ganti rugi. Sebagai tambahan, Lamo diganjar hukuman 6 bulan dan 2 tahun percobaan. Lamo sekarang menjadi pembicara seminar dan jurnalis berprestasi.
Jonathan James pada umur 16 tahun merupakan hacker termuda yang dijebloskan ke penjara karena aksi hackingnya. Aksi terbesar james adalah pada saat ia menjebol Defense Threat Reduction Agency, yang merupakan cabang dari departemen keamanan AS. Lewat aksinya ini, James mampu mencuri username dan password dan melihat e-mail – e-mail rahasia. James juga berhasil menjebol computer NASA dan mencuri software dengan harga US$1,7 juta.
The Justice Departement AS mengatakan bahwa “software yang dicuri james berkaitan dengan stasiun ruang angkasa internasional, termasuk pengaturan suhu dan kelembaban di ruang angkasa.” Karena ulah james, NASA harus menutup semua jaringan komputernya dengan biaya US$41.000. Saat ini james menjadi ahli keamanan computer di perusahaan besar.
Robert Tappan Morris merupakan anak dari Robert Morris, mantan ilmuwan dari National Security Agency. Robert adalah pencipta worm morris.worm ini merupakan worm pertama yang menyebar melalui internet. Robert menciptakan worm morris hanya untuk mengetahui besarnya dunia internet pada saat itu. Worm ini mereproduksi dirinya sendiri tanpa bias dikontrol, mematikan ribuan computer sampai computer tersebut benar-benar tidak berfungsi. Robert sekarang menjadi profesor di MIT Computer Science dan Artificial Intelligence Laboratory dan fokusnya adalah arsitektur computer dan jaringan.Kevin Poulsen atau lebih dikenal dengan Dark Dante mengawali aksinya dengan menjebol jaringan telepon radio Los Angeles KIIS-FM, aksinya ini membuatnya mendapatkan sebuah mobil Porsche. FBI mulai memburu Poulsen karena menjebol database FBI dan computer fedral untuk informasi penyadapan. Poulsen merupakan jagoan meng-hack jaringan telepon dan poulsen ditangkap disebuah supermarket dan diganjar hukuman 5 tahun. Sejak ditahan, Poulsen bekerja sebagai seorang jurnalis dan dipromosikan menjadi editor senior di sebuah Koran terkemuka, Wired News. Artikel populernya adalah mengidentifikasi tertuduh 744 pelecehan seksual di profile Myspace.

Trojan Menghapus Harddrive
Jika komputer anda mulai berbicara dengan anda, dan memberitahukan bahwa komputer anda telah terinfeksi dan seluruh data di harddrive telah dihapus,pemberitahuan tersebut bukan lelucon. jika benar-benar pernah anda alami,berarti anda terserang TROJAN BOT VOICE.A.
Kode berbahaya ini kali pertama diendus oleh firma keamanan PandaLabs, dan trojan ini menggunakan Windows text reader untuk mengaktifkan kalimat sebagai berikut:"You have been infected.I repeat, you have been infected and your system files have been deleted.Sorry,have a nice day, and bye bye." kalimat ini terus menerus diulang, ketika Trojan berusaha untuk menghapus seluruh isi harddrive.kadang,Trojan Bot Voice.A tidak mampu menghapus seluruh data.tapi bagaimanapun juga Trojan ini membuat registry berantakan. jadi,aplikasi-aplikasi yang telah diinstal di komputer tidak dapat dijalankan.
Trojan ini juga menonaktifkan Windows registry editor untuk melindungi aksi Trojan ini.Trojan ini menginfeksi melalui jarinagn P2P,perangkat penyimpanan portabel,seperti USB,CD-ROM dan file download dari situs berbahaya.

ASUS Announces P5K3 Premium with 2GB Onboard
ASUS' P5K3 packs 2GB DDR3 memory onboard
ASUS this week announced its latest P5K3 Premium motherboard based on Intel’s P35 Express chipset, but with a twist. The P5K3 Premium does away with traditional memory slots and integrates DDR3 memory onboard instead. ASUS packs the P5K3 Premium with 2GB of DDR3 1333 MHz memory, or what ASUS calls Turbo D3 Onboard Memory. The memory has latencies between CL7-to-CL10.
ASUS laid out 2GB of DDR3 memory in a dual-channel configuration for optimal performance. The onboard memory is also set up in what ASUS calls a perfect T-Tree design, where the memory controller has access to each pair of memory chips. ASUS claims the T-Tree design reduces clock cycle timing by 50% compared to traditional fly-by designs, which grants the memory controller access to each module.
ASUS guarantees memory overclocks above 1500 MHz, nearly matching the speeds of high-end overclocking memory. However, ASUS recommends at least a 1066 MHz front-side bus processor to achieve memory speeds above 1500 MHz.
Other notable features of the ASUS P5K3 Premium include support for upcoming Penryn-family processors and 1333 MHz front-side bus processors. Expansion capabilities of the P5K3 Premium include two PCIe x16 with CrossFire compatibility, two PCIe x1 and 3 PCI slots. ASUS also installs a JMicron JMB363 controller for one ATA133 and two e.SATA 3.0 Gb/s ports, in addition to the six internal SATA3.0 Gb/s ports provided by the Intel ICH9R.
Analog Devices provides audio via eight-channel high-definition audio codec. Dual Gigabit LAN is also standard. A large copper heat-pipe cools the P35 Express, ICH9R, VRMs and DDR3 memory.
Expect to pay quite a chunk of change when the board hits retail in the coming weeks.

Intel Readies Itanium 2 9100-Series
Intel gives the Itanium 2 one last hurrah before the QuickPath makeover next year
Intel is preparing to launch the next iteration of its dual-core Itanium 2 processors, Montvale. The next-generation Montvale-based Itanium 2 replaces the current Montecito-based Itanium 2 9000-series. Intel positions the Montvale-based Itanium 2 processors towards mission critical tasks, with scalability from two to 512 processor sockets – for up to 1024 processor cores.
The new Montvale-based processors retain the Itanium 2 name, but with a different processor number. Montvale-based processors will carry the 9100-series processor number to differentiate from the Montecito-based 9000-series. The new Itanium 2 9100-series has minor upgrades over the 9000-series.
New to the Itanium 2 9100-series is Demand Based Switching, or DBS, with Enhanced Intel Speedstep Technology. DBS allows the higher-end Itanium 2 9100-series models to enter a low-power state during idle periods. The feature is only present on the Itanium 2 9140N, 9140M, 9150N and 9150M. Despite DBS being present on the higher-end Itanium 2 9100 models, all dual-core 9100-series processors have 104-watt TDPs.
Intel continues to manufacturer the Itanium 2 9100-series on a 90nm fabrication process, as with Montecito. The biggest upgrade the Itanium 2 9100-series brings to the table is a faster 667 MHz front-side bus on three of the new models. Intel’s previous Itanium 2 9000-series were limited to 533 MHz front-side bus, at maximum.

Intel offers the Itanium 2 9100-series in five different models, as long as its 1.66 GHz or 1.6 GHz. However, Intel offers the Itanium 2 9100-series in different iL3 cache sizes to designate different model numbers. Three iL3 cache sizes are available – 24MB, 18MB and 8MB. Intel also designates Itanium 2 9100-series processors with an M suffix for 667 MHz front-side bus and N suffix for 533/400 MHz front-side buses.
The ugly duckling of the Itanium 2 9100-series lineup is the 9120N. This model is the only Itanium 2 9100-series without a 1.66/1.60 GHz clock speed. It has a lower 1.42 GHz clock speed with a 533/400 MHz front-side bus. The Itanium 2 9120N is the only dual-core model with a 12MB iL3 cache. Despite the lower clock speed, the Itanium 2 9120N has the same 104-watt TDP as the higher-clocked models.
All dual-core Itanium 2 models, with the exception of the 9130M, can execute up to four threads.

Intel also has one single-core Itanium 2 9100-series in the lineup. The Itanium 2 9110N has a 1.60 GHz clock speed and 12MB of iL3 cache. It also has a 533/400 MHz front-side bus. The single-core Itanium 2 has a 75-watt TDP rating. Intel prices the Itanium 2 9110N at $696.
Intel does not have any new chipsets in the pipeline for the Itanium 2 9100-series. The Itanium 2 9100-series will continue to use the Intel 8870 with its DDR-200 memory controller. The Intel E8870 only supports 400 MHz front-side bus processors. Third-party chipsets are required to take advantage of faster 667 MHz and 533 MHz front-side buses.
Intel’s next Itanium, the follow up to Montvale, will not arrive until 2H’08. Tukwila will be a quad-core processor with Intel’s QuickPath, formerly known as common system interface, technology. Tukwila will have a 65nm fabrication process and will drop into a new Boxboro MC
Expect Intel to debut the Itanium 2 9100-series next quarter, after the current Itanium 2 9000-series is EOL in August. platform.
