I Would Perminantly Ban Them From My Site And Shut Their Computer Off  (Using CMD (I Can Do That As I Know How))

I would IP Ban them but messing with their computer or their belongings makes you no better than them.

Umm, by the context of having a grin smiley next to that, I'm assuming Matt's joking. ;)



I wouldn't counter hack them. For one, it's illegal. Two, if you counter hack them, they only have to do a few things to access your computer, in which they could potentially log any security codes you enter, such as credit card numbers, transaction info, and even find out your social security numbers or where you live if you're not careful. Also, there are ways to get around even a permanent ban.

I would go with a more smart decision. I'd find what their contact info/location info was, and I'd report them to the authorities. (I know there's really not a whole lot they can do, but it's probably more smart than counter-hacking them just for the sake of it.)

Hacking is a criminal offense, by the way. ;)
