His site was not hacked. What happened is this. Mork's web site was not set up properly to keep the directories from being seen. This happened because when a web browser goes to a site, it looks for an file called INDEX.HTM(*). If there is no said file then you are giving a directory listing of all files on that site. Since Mork had his site set up with no index.htm file to default to this is what happened if you logged directly to the main page. I and others did log direct to the web's default page and could see his site naked. We could see all the other directory and their files that way, and we simple went exploring in each directory to see what it contained. YOU can not add or subtract or edit his files without the proper passwords set up in the security files set by the web master for that site.

IMHO Mork's site was not hacked, but he was caught naked and had the site closed down after we put the direct links to him and the SI poster. he had no choice but to close it as we uncovered the evidence again him, and I and others have direct screen shots and downloaded files to prove they existed!
