The Asus web site has suffered a hack attack. Over at the site, there is a message in French protesting against demonstrations about the Kosovo war and the displacement of refugees it has caused. Asus is a Taiwanese company but this site belongs to the US arm, based in Milpitas. The message has been up on the site for at least the last eight hours. ®
