The IIS vulnerabilities were a couple of the many security issues exploited on the various systems.
"Ask rafa and cowhead what bugs they have found and exploited. These people cannot even write 1 line of C code."
I don't see how their coding ability is relevant to the fact many websites were defaced. This claim has no merit or proof.
"Indeed they are the filth and scum that give real hackers a bad name."
Finally the point of your post. If other readers didn't catch it I will let them know. The author of the post simply wanted to insult someone else. Not sure what the reasoning is behind this but I'm sure a psychiatrist can help. It doesn't matter if the person is a real hacker a fake hacker a cracker a smacker a quacker. The fact of the matter is SOMEONE compromised systems and defaced them. This is a criminal action and should be dealt with accordingly.
It's easy to voice your opinion on a subject you don't know enough about. Throw in some insults and hope noone notices.
