Subj: .gov story (retransmitted - your address trashed too)

Read your comment about possibility of your site being trashed by .gov people.
Want to tell you a story.
Ran my site on UFO info a some years ago. I monitored visitor with hidden CGI logs. During that time, on Concentric ISP, two significant .gov logon's happened. The most interesting was done by Lawrence Livermore Computer System. As I researched this, I ran into a fire wall as I tried to email them as to the why of their logon. All I did was send them an email to a sensitive address that was protected. When I restarted my email program it was trashed! I ran a mirror program, so all data was still intact, but this pissed me off!
I then went to Concentric Staff with a complaint, and all logs and complete background as I was certain they were using sniffer programs to road around the servers. The staff did not reply, but within a few days, I received an apology and somewhat of a denial of intent to cause a problem from the Director LLCC along with his phone number. At that point I dropped it - you see, I maintained a Top Secret Security Clearance (compartmented) and knew the nature of such types. They are not nice people!
Well, I am certain Concentric went to someone higher than that person (congress?). His chain was rattled by someone up the ladder.
And the moral to this story, you need horsepower on your side to deal with such types!
Hope this was of interest to you.
Take care.
