have infected over 200 of them and said the act was a revenge for a similar attack on Pakistani websites
by a self-proclaimed 'Indian Cyber Army'.

Nov 26 cyber attack carried out by the Indian Cyber Army (ICA), according to Pakistani daily The Express
Tribune.
CBI website hacked by 'Pakistani Cyber Army'

Among the 36 websites hacked by the ICA Nov 26 this year, were the websites of Pakistan Navy, the
National Accountability Bureau (NAB), the ministry of foreign affairs, education and finance as well as
Islamic organisations.

In retaliation, Predators PK has targetted websites of India's Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI),
colleges, NGOs, Indian companies and religious organisations among others, the daily said and published
the list of hacked websites circulated by Predators PK.

onto Indian servers and sites being hacked to root level.

26, 2008), the page inserted by Pakistani hackers did not suggest ideological motivations, but simply
revenge.
