Talk about having too much time on your hands... hackers are a waste of skin (although I'm sure they provide value to people selling Star Trek memorabilia).

Like most hacks, they are done just to show that they can do it.

It's suspected that a phishing email was used to obtain the domain registration account password and the dns was changed.

It's funny that this happened the same day that Google announced that they are pulling out of China. The main reason Google gave was that a hacking attempt was made on the gmail servers that was suspected to have originated from China.
