I generally love flippant remarks (see the archives). I do not, however, 
take kindly to what appears on first blush to be outright ridicule (or 
which could certainly be construed by the OP to be blatant ridicule), 
especially since his English *did* have a fair amount of spelling mistakes.

Please do. It was *not* clear in this case that you intended humor; quite 
the opposite, in fact, as I do not flame easily.

Besides, remember this is not your run-of-the-mill newbie question. This 
guy had his servers (plural) cracked and rooted, and has a serious problem 
on his hands. IMHO, humor is fine if and only if you also take the time to 
actually help him as well, since he very clearly needs it.

Cheers,
