    Is't real? How come I can't found it at CNN or CNBC? AFP also didn't report anything?

    I doubt it's true, I go there every day and I didn't see anything like that.

    I wouldn't believe that, though it's possible.

    This isn't a rumour, this is something real! Well, I don't know why it is not reported on BBC or CNN. Most probably because Yahoo! haven't figure out how those kiddies got in and making this issue public will just get them a second defacement...

    Anyway, You only trust what BBC or CNN reported to you?? Though many of their reports are bias? This news is all over security websites. For the defacement mirror, check this out..

    Anyway.. thanks for the information. The risk of hacking is already there. Only it's a matter of time before the action begins.

    Everyone was complaining about the Message Board redesign. Supposedly it will be changed again this Friday Aug 12th.

    Most chatter on this is within the YHOO stock message board itself - messages.finance.yahoo.com/mb/YHOO
