• Interview With Jim L., Online Casinos Biggest Winner

Jim L is the world's largest online jackpot winner having won $1,683,524.64 playing Major Millions at Lucky Nugget Casino on the Jackpot Madness network. Besides $1.68 Million dollars, Jim L also won an all expense paid luxury trip to Barbados to indoctrinate him into life as a millionaire. 1- How long have you been playing Major Millions? I have been playing Major Millions off and on for about one year, as well as most of the other progressives in the Jackpot Madness network. I had only been playing for about 20 minutes on the day that I won. 2- What attracted you to that game? Actually, the size of the jackpot is what drew me in to play. The thought of being able to win such an enormous amount was exciting. I just began to think of all the great things I would be able to do if I won, and that was enough inspiration for me to play. 3- Do you have many casino accounts? I only have one casino account. I opened up a Lucky Nugget Casino account last year when I saw one of their pop-ups. I began to play and was lucky. I decided to stay put with my lucky streak. 4- What other games do you play? I play almost all of the other progressives. My favorites are the slots. I would say that I play about 75% of the games at Lucky Nugget. 5- Did you ever expect to win such a life-changing jackpot? Expect? Never in one million six hundred eighty-three thousand five hundred twenty six years! But I certainly did hope for it. This will definitely change my life. I have dreams that I can now make realities. [...]

• Hackers Go For Super Bowl Gold

Just a few days before Super Bowl XXXVIII, online sports books were preparing for a record number of bets placed, but the anticipation must have been mixed with anxiety. Half a year of an escalating frequency of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks and the fastest-spreading computer virus of all time were looming. The dreaded MyDoom virus, which unleashed its wrath on the SCO Group and Microsoft, wasn't a problem for cyber bookmakers. The DDoS situation was. Extortionists launched a massive assault on Internet sports books, disabling many of them for several hours. IGN talked to several operators, and all of them experienced a massive assault on Super Bowl Sunday preceded in nearly all cases by slightly smaller waves of attacks in the days leading up to the game. One hosting provider reported that the barrages began on January 24, more than a week before the Super Bowl. Others said their sites started taking hits on the 28th. Despite operators taking extra precautions, Super Bowl Sunday's DDoS culmination was heavy enough to render dozens of sites inaccessible to customers. [...]
