This is first post on news. I did search to make sure noone else has done this yet.

I hope you all enjoy.

AUSTIN — Apparent slacker hackers with time to kill brought a raised eyebrow or two to the faces of motorists at a busy Austin intersection.

Electronic signs intended to warn motorists of construction near the intersection of Lamar and Martin Luther King boulevards were changed Wednesday to warn of “Zombies Ahead! Run for your lives!”

The two signs are about a half mile west of the University of Texas campus.

Austin Public Works spokeswoman Sara Hartley says the message was only displayed for a few hours. She said the hackers cut a padlock to get into the signs’ computers.

Hartley also tells KXAN-TV in Austin that the stunt is a Class C misdemeanor punishable by up to a $500 fine if the scamps are ever found.

Posted two other times now, happened two weeks ago. Although it is hard to tell what is a repost when the search feature has been up and down for the last couple of days.
