    What? used to have linux on it or something? by Freakazoid2002-10-03 12:15:52
      Anyone know the answer to my original question? by Freakazoid2002-10-03 14:33:07
        I don't think he was using Linux. by inittab 2002-10-03 22:21:12
Probably not even any form of unix...
I think Kevin tended to work with utilities,
and perhaps write a few of his own.
Likely running Windows, but he hasn't been running
ANY operating system for the last several years.

From what I have read, he did more of his "hacking"
based on pecking through open networks, and fooling
people over the phone into thinking he was another
employee - then getting passwords from them. Then
he could gain access to the machines internally,
via telnet and such, to infiltrate them further from
within. I don't think he was/is any supreme programmer,
or technical genius-
