    Earlier today, Oct 22, a group known as "Pakistan Hackerz Club" (PHC) 
    compromisd and defaced the Zee News web site. Fortunately for ZeeNews, the
    defacers put up a custom page instead of engaging in a more subtle
    attacks. As stated on today's defacement, this is the *fifth* time Zee
    News has been defaced by PHC (see below for previous mirrors). Also on the
    defacement were threats against Indian Atomic Research and US
    Military/Government servers, as well as "UK" for "licking American balls".
