I figured that Comcast was pretty weak in security but I didn't think they would let themselves get hacked.

Yet another reason I resent their being the only high-speed internet provider in my area. They suck at everything.

Seriously, they are the worst. Time Warner and RR was the best.

I have AT&T now.... I liked Bellsouth better before they merged.

This is what I just read from somewhere else.
For a few hours yesterday, Comcast.net was redirected to a website claiming that hackers had "RoXed" Comcast, but they were caught. The DNS server was breached, but Comcast.net was not hacked.
"I wish I was a minor right now because this is going to be really bad," said 19-year-old "Defiant", one of the two hackers. He and the other hacker, 18 year-old "EBK", could face serious charges.
The best part of this story, however, is the quote Defiant gave to Wired.
"I slept in my clothes, because the last time they came, I was in my underwear with my dong hanging out and sh*t," Defiant said of a past raid.
Protip: Don't hack and then sleep in unsecure underwear.
