Move Your Cube

For the last few days my AIM has been crashing randomly throughout the day. A few minutes ago I received a random IM from a screen name I had never seen before. They said:

...you have three seconds to make a profile your profile is now a cube you have three seconds to move your cube you are being booted off the internet

And then Instant Messenger closed. I started it back up and a few minutes later got the same messages from the same screen name. I blocked said screen name. Problem solved, right? Wrong. A different, new, screen name IM'ed me with the same message. I had to set AIM to only allow IM's from my those in my buddy list while I set the program to send me an approval button before I receive any incoming chat windows from those not already on my buddy list. This has, so far, thwarted the strange IM crashes.

How in the world did they do this, I wonder. Can someone really come in and shut down the program? I guess they can seeing as how they did. Anyone have any ideas?

Update:This Hack's Sights Set on AIM...

I'm no longer SznsOfHype, at least for now. Find me on AIM at MarkBakalor or HijinksDesign...

Webcam

You know it. You love it. You can't get enough of it. Yes, it's the infamous webcam!


Sweeney Todd
Read all about how I, and hundreds of others, got screwed out of tens of thousands of dollars by Doug Mayo.


Times have changed and so too has the design of this site. Journey back in time with me for some redesign fun!


Assassins
I have a healthy fascination with the phenomenon of events in relation to the musical Assassins.





What people are saying:

I'm really not sure of the appeal of Mark Bakalor's site, because frankly I suspect there is none, but hell, I check it at least thrice daily, and you should too!
