| Saudi arrests five after seizing bomb making CDs |
| 2003-12-25 |
| Saudi authorities, facing a wave of militant attacks, have arrested five people after raiding computer shops selling compact disks containing hidden bomb making instructions, a local newspaper reported. Police were questioning four owners of computer shops in the southern Jazan region and a fifth person believed to have supplied the CDs to the shops, Al-Watan newspaper said. The daily said some of the shop owners might not have known about the bomb making tutorial files hidden on the CDs. Only someone with technical knowledge would be able to find the files. |

| #4 Sorry, Glen. I just couldn't resist. You have to admit, it IS the sort of silly thing a script-kiddie would think of as "cool". Hell, hiding a file on a CD? Anyone with an IQ over room temperature can do that. (Of course, that lets out most political policemen, and ALL politicians...) Ed. |
