Top five hacking moments on film

[Nubius]

but in all my expereince i have never heard of a serious virus that did that

ok so? Why are you taking it so seriously? No one would bother wasting their time writing a virus that did that because most people who are writing virus's are out to seriously destroy crap without the person knowing.

Oh yeah...AND IT'S A MOVIE. WHO CARES.

im not taking it seriously, infact independence day happens to be one of my altime favorite movies, i just thought it apropiate to bring it up since evryone else was talking about inaccuracies in the movies, why are you attacking me. Harper listed a similar complaint about no wifi.
i am just staing a fact.

Sword Fish-
uses a really dodgey split screen GUI to make it easy for people to understand what hes doing, hacks a 512bit encryption in like a few days. its my favourite.

or to a lesser extent "Event Horizon"
where they are trying to hack the computers to find the ships records and this sick video comes on screen showing the crew eating each other alive.
