this takes us back to the original problem

ck says cheeky is harassing her. they are feuding. she was shocked to find out she wasn't where she thought she was becuase he had made a exact duplicate page.

I don't know why they are feuding and I am sorry to have jumped in, but now I am here.

here is a scenario: (hypothetical)

knowing they are feuding.

cheeky could have figured... hmmm what can i do to get ck. hey i'll steal her ip and thrash her with a tear drop or something.

so he sets up his page. maybe pms her to look at it. Then once he figures out she has hit it, (pretty easy to do) he does his trick on her. In the mean time, he changes his profile page so its not the 'duplicat image' anymore. That way anyone else looking at it doesn't see/get the same effect or even know there was something funny going on.

meanwhile c.k.'s system starts freeking out. it may be just a bad keyboard, but from her perspective something is different.

then the feuding goes on.

the above was a hypothetical scenario.

oh and one more thing. if a hacker was targetting a particular group, si would be a good place if he/she wanted to hack internet trading accounts. Most of the people frequenting si would be doing trading (maybe not internet, but he would have a better hit percentage at si than at www.flowers.com
