HACKER JOYRIDE: Using the University of California at Davis's computer
system to access government networks, more than 100 young hackers went
for a "joyride" that elicited an FBI investigation. The suspects range
in age from 12 to 22 and hail from several states and countries,
including Finland, Australia, and the former Czechoslovakia. No
arrests have been made as yet pending a formal investigation,
according to John Crowell, manager of workstation support for UC
Davis's IT division. The hackers were detected in mid-October when
charges began piling up on a dormant computer account. Using the
Internet network, the hackers raided systems belonging to the CIA, the
Defense Department, and NASA, among others. del 1/15 19 21;num;l
