Default I HATE HACKERS!!! OT

Well, normally I'm a fairly easy going guy, but this has me absolutely wild!
It's happened twice before, and now it's happened again. Some friggin'
$%@^#&* hacked into OutdoorFrontiers.com and bombed the site! I think I
could cheerfully beat on this person until they were a pulp!

I emailed the support people at the web hosting service as I knew they did
routine and regular backups of all their client's sites. I was told that
they evidently backed up my site right after it was hacked, and that the new
(and now useless) backup overwrote the previous one!

And to make matters worse, the external drive that I had the site backed up
to has for some reason decided to puke. I've taken it to a computer tech to
see if he can retrieve the data but he said "Don't get your hopes up." He
did say that if he couldn't get to the data, he wouldn't bill me for his
time. I guess I should at least be thankful for no bill if there's no
data....

What's wrong with people anyway that they have to trash others work?????
