A bit more info...

Just for those that want a bit more information on this: The server which was hacked into house personal and commercial homepages for The Internet Group in both New Zealand and Australia, and is located in California(!). I think the total of destroyed homepages was 4,586 in NZ, and about 50 (or was it 500?) commercial sites. The hacker destroyed the emergency backups and there were no other backups for the server.
