NEWS AOL's websites have been hit by hackers who posted messages attacking CEO Steve Case. Hackers managed to gain control of one of the site's primary servers, called Rainman, which allowed them to edit and create whatever they liked. Messages and content were posted accusing AOL Time Warner CEO Steve Case of gross stupidity, and mocking the site's lack of effective security. Media colossus AOL Time Warner, which yesterday inked a deal to provide cable television in China, has yet to confirm or deny the reports which appeared on US newswire BetaNews.com.
