   John Vranesevich, founder of AntiOnline, said he
   knows little about HFG and that this was their
   first hack of a high-profile site. 

   HFG's other past targets include sites run by the
   rap artist MC Hammer, NASA's Jet Propulsion
   Laboratory, and a classified ad page belonging
   to Penthouse Magazine, Vranesevich said. Most
   of the cracks were done using well-known holes
   in the Common Gateway Interface (CGI)
   scripting language, used for various interactive
   features on Web pages. 

[JP says he knows little about them, then turns around and claims to
know exactly how they broke into sites. Combined with his recent alliance to Carolyn
Meinel, and now this, one can't help but wonder if their involvement doesn't go deeper
than 'observers']
