"Surfers trying to visit the web site of popular secure email service
 Hushmail were redirected to a false site early Sunday following a
 hacking attack. Hush Communications said hackers changed Hushmail's
 DNS records after "compromising the security" of its domain registrar
 (Network Solutions). These changes were undone after a few hours on
 Sunday and normal Hushmail services have now been restored."
