Fugitif · 22 Apr 2009

Today, a web site defacement group known as “The Peace Crew” has successfully hijacked the DNS records for high profile New Zealand web sites, through what Zone-H claims to be a SQL injection at New Zealand’s based registrar Domainz.net, in order to redirect the visitors to a defaced page featuring the infamous Bill Gates pieing photo, as well as anti-war messages.

The mass defacement affected major Microsoft sites in New Zealand including WindowsLive.co.nz, MSN.co.nz, Microsoft.co.nz, Hotmail.co.nz, Live.co.nz next to HSBC.co.nz, Sony.co.nz, Coca-Cola.co.nz, Xerox.co.nz, Fanta.co.nz, F-Secure.co.nz and BitDefender.co.nz.
