Anonymous activists have released source code for PCAnywhere onto the internet. Hacker’s negotiations for payment from Symantec broke down. The code was posted on the Pirate Bay file-sharing website on Tuesday at around 5:40am. The release followed failed email negotiations over a $50,000 payout to the hacker calling himself YamaTough to destroy the code. The hacker has posted segments of code for Norton Utilities and other programs. Users of pcAnywhere are at increased risk because of the age of the exposed source.
