The Consell de Mallorca web 'hacked'

The server for the Consell de Mallorca suffered last weekend an attack by a hacker. As a consequence, yesterday afternnon some of the web lodged on the server or www.conselldemallorca.net, such as the webs of the majority of Town Councils on Mallorca, instead of presenting the information of the respective municipalities, showed a page created by the hacker, as can be seen in the picture that illustrates the news (See amplified image in a new window). After a few hours, the server stopped responding, and as of writing, none of the webs lodged on www.conselldemallorca.net nor the mails that use this domain were working.

Searching on the Net, webs can be found that have suffered the same misfortune as the Mallorcan Council, such as those that can be seen on people.site.ne.jp/mirror/2001.02.21/dns1.ocli-asia.co.jp, or on s1.daikan.shibuya.tokyo.jp/~factorium/sozai/.

El Consorci d'Informàtica Local de de Mallorca has confirmed these facts to the MallorcaWeb editorial and are working to resolve the problem and set up the Consell server as soon as possible.
