*Somehow* his kids got into it? I'll betcha his kids don't have a
Nordahl boot disk.
I think you mean instead that he gave his kids the password and let them play...
I wish I could make that a firing offense here.

One no longer needs to "hack" into a computer. By having parts of a
system umpatched, then going to a "bad site" (and this can be done in all

or Zone Alarm and see what's going on.
All free solutions, all very effective.
