Posted March 3Mar 3 Hello Gabe, I'm very sorry about what happened with HL2. I want to explain a few things. I was in your network for ~6 months, watching your development process, which was very interesting. Yes, I am the hacker, no, I didn't distribute HL2. Beginning of September, I was on LCIRC exchanging some info with a friend that works on a project with me, but my connection was being watched by the myg0t guys. I only found out later that LCIRC is full of myg0t people and I have been sniffed. So, basically they got WebMail & VPN passwords by me being foolish about this stuff. I don't know exactly what they installed, but the modified RemoteAnywhere and the Keyloggers were not installed by me, I only installed a self-developed SourceSafe client/server system on 2 Win32 PCs to keep my HL2 up to date, and I later set up backdoors on 2 of the linux routers, and also ported my SourceSafe client-server system to Linux to be able to download faster. I think you found those, but the rest was not installed by me. If you got any interest in my VSS utility, mail me and I'll send the sourcecode, they give a huge speedup compared to VSS or SourceOffSite. Well, I learned from this incident that I should not transmit unencrypted passwords for such important things. I wanted to help you people get to know the truth by writing this mail, and I never intended to harm you. I only didn't tell you I was in your network cause I was afraid to get kicked out, I just wanted to observe the HL2 development process, cause I'm a hobby developer myself and a big an of HL2, let's just say I'm amazed by the capabilities of your team. Well, thats it. Just so there is no confusion about my identity, I'll just attach some document I got thats not available elsewhere cause myg0t probably only had time to check out very few stuff (~15 days). tf2/scripts/objects.txt docs/e3_2003/e3 final.rtf Thank you for your time, - Da Guy
