Te dashur miq,

nese dikush eshte ne dijeni te ndonje organizate qe mbledh rroba dhe ushqime 
te konservuara per refugjatet, ne New York City, le te me dergoje adresen/at 
e tyre ne e-mailiin tim pasi me duhen per disa miq amerikane qe duan te 
ndihmojne.

Gjithe te mirat,

Ridvan Hoxha

Marre nga "Albpress":


"Aleanca sllave" p?rgatitet edhe p?r sulm virtual ndaj shqiptar?ve

Shkup, 27 prill /ALBPRESS/ - Nj? burim i af?rt me sh?rbimet per?ndimore
t? zbulimit, i tha nj? bashk?pun?tori t? Rrjetit Albpress, se gjat?
uikendit n? Jugosllavi ka mb?rritur nj? grup prej 10-12 haker?ve
kompjuterik? nga Rusia, q?llimi i t? cil?ve do t? jet? p?rgatitja dhe
realizimi i nj? "sulmi virtual" ndaj instalimeve shqiptare n? rrjetin
bot?ror t? internetit.
Resurset shqiptare n? Internet kan? qen? edhe m? par? objekte t? sulmeve
nga haker?t serb?. Para disa muajsh, ata arrit?n t? bllokojn? faqet n?
internet t? gazet?s "Z?ri i Kosov?s" dhe m? von? t? Qendr?s p?r Informim
t? Kosov?s.
Nd?rkaq, nj? grup haker?sh shqiptar? nga Kosova dhe Maqedonia, po
p?rgatiten p?r t? p?rballuar "sulmin" virtual nga ana e aleanc?s s?
haker?ve serbo-rus?.
Nj? student i elektronik?s nga Prishtina, q? po q?ndron n? Tetov?,  tha
p?r Albpress se ai ishte pjestar i nj? grupi haker?sh shqiptar, i
quajtur "Shqiponja  e Pakapshme",  dhe se ata jan? t? gatsh?m t?
p?rballohen me "sulmin virtual" serb.

------------------------------------------

Sipas ketij lajmi nga Albpress, duhet pra qe te gjithe neve te cilet kemi
mundesi, te mundohemi qe te perballojme kete lufte teknologjike dhe
virtuale.

Subject: Internet takes root in crumbling Albania


>
> TIRANA, Albania, April 28 (UPI) -- Down a pot-holed dirt road, past an
>abandoned, crumbling stadium in the heart of Tirana, lies the unfinished
>11-story building that is home to one of Albania's fledgling commercial
>Internet providers.
> The startup is one of a handful of commercial dial-up Internet
>service providers that starting this year have opened up the Net to
>regular citizens of the former hermit nation.
> Albanian universities and non-governmental organizations have had
>access to e-mail and other Internet services since 1997, when the United
>Nations Development Program and the Soros Foundation set up a satellite
>link with an escort of international troops amid gunfire, riots and
>looting.
> Although the chaos of that year sparked by widespread financial fraud
>has settled down, today's entrepreneurs must contend with power outages,
>abysmal phone service, government regulations from a former
>dictatorship, and a crumbling infrastructure.
> Twenty-two-year-old Edmond Kereku, one of Adanet's three co-founders,
>says the power went out four or five times a day when the company
>launched its service in January.
> The three partners bought eight giant boat batteries they say will
>power for two days the three computers that serve their clients.
> They also bought 25 chargers they say can fully power up the
>batteries in one-and-a-half hours.
> Twenty-six-year-old partner Rezart Andoni says the new Internet
>service providers must pay off the technicians from the government-run
>phone company to get service, noting that one bad phone line can put
>over half of their 55 lines out of service.
> After the power headaches over the winter, Adanet moved its office to
>its current building, the headquarters of a private Albanian television
>station, complete with an uninterruptable power source and a backup
>diesel engine.
> However, Andoni won't hazard a guess about when the construction will
>be completed.
> Andoni has worked for the UNDP and the Soros Foundation, the two
>pioneers who developed Albania's Internet links with the rest of the
>world.
> During the anarchy of 1997, 200 donated computers were looted from a
>warehouse, and a bomb detonated outside the Tirana Soros Foundation
>headquarters, damaging cars and shattering windows.
> Kereku was one of the earliest devotees of a cyber cafe set up by the
>Soros Foundation in 1997 that provided two hours a day of free Internet
>access to the public.
> It was shut down a year ago because it became too busy.
> Andoni says his goal is not to make millions, but for the company to
>survive.
> While his entrepreneurial counterparts in the United States become
>wealthy beyond imagination by selling shares of their Internet companies
>in initial public offerings, Andoni does not even know what the term
>means.
> The crumbling road and unfinished building that houses Adanet is
>representative of the poor infrastructure throughout the country.
> Albania is perhaps the poorest country in Europe. Most homes in the
>capital city of Tirana have only a hole in the floor for a toilet, which
>must be flushed out with a pail of water.
> Hot running water is usually provided by electric heaters that take
>30 minutes to warm 10 gallons, and are usually turned off.
> Water service is intermittent throughout the day.
> Roughly 90 percent of Albanian homes do not have phone lines. With
>the recent surge of ethnic Albanian refugees and foreign military and
>humanitarian personnel into the country, it can take an hour of attempts
>before an international call connects.
> Andoni says many foreigners have signed up with Adanet to use
>software that allows them to make international calls at U.S. rates,
>which are roughly a tenth of Albanian prices.
> Adanet has set up high-speed microwave Internet connections
>throughout Tirana, and offers service in the port city of Durres, the
>second largest in the country.
> A satellite link connects Adanet directly to the Internet in New York
>City.
