RSA.COM site hacked :)

[Trei, Peter]

Yep, it looks like someone poisoned the DNS records for 
one of our obsolete domains. We noticed over a day ago, and 
corrected updates have been wending their way through 
the Internet since. Our main domain, www.rsasecurity.com, 
was never touched. 

It was amusing to see traceroutes terminating in Colombia.
