Other articles cofirm a hack.

I have read several articles in full, from about 5 different Web sites with
different reporters. SSL was disabled, back doors existed, the spokewoman
could only confirm there was no virus infection, diplomats/employees could
not access online banking (many of these still require MSIE/forging, as we
all know), and the hackers may have 'planted' back door for return. lastly,
data was leaked and employees needed to change password. Judge for yourself
what system it may have been.
