azzDB	party As a follow up to the previous news about the hacker, comes new information about more arrests. Shacknews states that more arrests of other participants in the source code leak have been made. Within a few days of the announcement of the break-in, the online gaming community had tracked down those involved," said Gabe Newell, Valve's CEO. "It was extraordinary to watch how quickly and how cleverly gamers were able to unravel what are traditionally unsolvable problems for law enforcement related to this kind of cyber-crime.

ShortCutMan ♥ Pure ♥ Bred ♥ Geek ♥	Its was being sold in shops in Amsterdam I think. Compiling it would be possible, as long as you have 100% of the source, and all the things you need. Valve aren't likely to be using a test version of VC++8. As for the link azz0r gave, thats like a fudgin conspiracy site. -- 98% of the internet population has a Myspace.

It was the first site to appear when the leak apparently happened. It started with people compiling the leaked source, so it had pictures and videos of blocks running round a hl2 map they made, was rather pants. From there it delved deep and found the proper engine was around, that site exposed it. -- Why wont it save me?
