I was gonna add this to the other thread on "black magic". Magic is magic, and "black" is just a word. But I'll tell you a little of what I've gone through. For almost SIX (6) YEARS I've had a (so-called) "wiccan" hacker after me. He's killed off EIGHT COMPUTERS, and cost us about $6,000.00, and I wouldn't bring this up here, but he's hacking my passwords here, I'm now on my 4th one, I think. (Please see my other post in the TECHNICAL section). If somebody would like to try to help me, it would be cool, if not, that's OK too. Mostly, this maniac has tried to kill me, and he can't, so he's settled for tearing up eight of our computers. He fancies himself this great magician, but frankly, if he was, I'D BE DEAD. Simple as THAT. Now, I DO have a kind of 'Post Traumatic Stress Disorder' from being 'at war' for so very long. This is all very complex, and I really hesitated to tell about it here in public. If you know a way to help this kind of "war fatigue", I'd like to hear it. Even more, I'd like to see this all END. But I'm on year SIX now, and that doesn't look very promising. Thanks for any help, and for reading a very small bit of my story. Peace, gossamer

I know that you mean well, and I'll try your exercise, but please just read the WHOLE story and THEN decide if perhaps I've just made this all up................. gossamer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Remember, this reads like a diary.........it's now been SIX YEARS. Reading downward, it starts from the beginning, and goes into NOW (almost). I have REMOVED all REAL personal names. We are NOW on our NINTH (9th) Computer. And he's "working" on it! I've had a (so-called) "wiccan" hacker after me for 5 (FIVE) YEARS. Here's "our story". It reads *backwards* like a kind of diary (which it really IS). This is a long and rather convoluted story. It started last June (2003), and it continues until this day. I used to operate a Yahoo group, it had a member on it named "Rev." Silver Crow, or 'Corvus Argentum', or '....................., or take your pick of probably a hundred other I.D.'s. This all started with a disagreement about words and titles. Someone on my old (first) Yahoo e-list asked me about folks who use titles like "Reverend", and "Master", and such. I personally dislike titles and labels like these. Anyway, I digress, when I publicly said that I didn't care for such titles, this person 'went off' (so-to-speak) . This debate went on for several days, and when I asked for it to cease, this person threw a fit, and when I threatened to moderate him, he got downright nasty and vile. I removed him from the list. Well, it turned out that he was an expert computer hacker, and the lady who 'set up' the beginning of this argument over titles was his lover (and she was married..... ..incidently) . I think now, that the whole thing was just set up by her, as she disagreed with me on a whole gamut of things, but instead of dealing with this upfront, she subtletly 'set up' this argument with someone that she already KNEW was an expert computer hacker. It turns out later, that I was given a recorded (on audio tape) telephone conversation between she and this hacker, by a friend. In .................., the law says only ONE person has to know if a conversation is being recorded during a telephone conversation. This was the start of a 13 month battle, that continues till this day, as I said above. I lost my first PC to this man, as he 'turned off' the video card on it, so that it would no longer work, and he finally gave it the 'My Doom' virus, which even damages the computer's hardware! He also ruined two more loaner PC's from friends of mine. Finally, some like minded friends (who's PC's he had also hacked) and myself went to the F.B.I., last October 6th, 2004, about this man. We gave them (the F.B.I.) PROOF, the recorded audio tape of him bragging about hacking people's PC's, and a log of him hacking through MANY computers, using the computers at the hospital, where he USED to be employed. As it turned out, the F.B.I. ALREADY KNEW ABOUT HIM, but refused to prosecute him as he had (at that time) not met a supposed $10,000.00 ceiling for damages that occured while he was hacking our PC's. That is, a hacker has to cause at least $10,000.00 in damages, to be Federally prosecuted. I knew (as did everyone else who's computers that he had hacked) that he worked in the largest hospital in................., in .................., as one of their main tele-communications people. After he had put some of my PRIVATE Medical information on the internet (in a Yahoo group), which violates the HIPPA Act, I called them on June 1st, and by June the 6th, 2005, he was no longer an employee there. When I had an angio-gram done at The.....................Heart Clinic that turned out reasonably well, .......................... had hacked their computers, and when friends called the Heart Clinic they were told "That I was supposed to not live through the night", when in actuality, I was home from the procedure by 7:00 PM! He had been employed there for a long time, around 8 years, I understand. He has also 'taken captive' two of my old personal e-mail accounts, and thus, because I had only MYSELF as 'an owner' of my e-mail groups, he also took the e-lists 'captive' too. He went to my old high school website where I graduated from in 1970, and told them that I was 'dead', they even posted a photo of me taken from my old high school year book, in 'the deceased' section of their 1970 Graduates. It took me SIX MONTHS to NOT be "dead", at this high school website, after he did what he did. He sent a girlfriend to my front door in ....................., posing as a County D.H.S. worker (this too, is a felony), scoping out where, and how, I lived. My feeling is that this was for a potential 'hit' on me. He's had a friend of his in prison call my sister, as she was 'my next of kin', on my hospital forms (which of course, he hacked). He HAD a legal license to "Minister" in the ..................... Prison System, til I had a little chat with the Director of the Ministry section there on the phone. He's an "ordained" and licensed Minister, in the state of ....................... My sister and her husband finally had to call the ...................... Attorney General to have these calls to their home cease. He attacked another person's computer (at work) who just happens to work for the .................... Secretary of State. I later learned that both the F.B.I. and the ....................... State Police raided the Secretary of State's office and confiscated many computer hard drives and other PC items, but still, this man was NOT prosecuted. He later ran this lady off of the road, with his van, to where she had to get a restraining order against him, as she was terrified that he would kill her. He had his cronies follow me late at night in ..................... to where I had to travel armed (which if you knew me personally, is really hard to believe). After he was fired recently from ..........................., he shot out a friend of mine's truck window, just as a not so subtle threat, because this friend helped me to get him fired from his job. Still he was not prosecuted, for lack of evidence (he used an exploding bullet, which cannot be traced). We currently have reformatted our current PC, 3 times (I had reformatted my old PC 9 TIMES, and my friend in ................. has reformatted his PC, 24 TIMES!), and we have a proxy server with a firewall, two more external firewalls, one internal firewall, and still he has hacked our PC, even though we're almost 700 miles from ........................! When I first joined this group, I had one ID, that lasted one whole day, then I had to change the password, and now when I post, I DON'T have to sign in, or out, which leads me to believe, that Silver Crow, is also 'riding in' on my ID, and password, for this group. I have an old IP address (from last October) for him should you want it. I guess that my question is, what would cause someone to be so sick that they would stalk me all around the internet, just over an argument about titles? What must have actually happened to this man in his life to NEED this sort of twisted and perverted 'power'? This is just a small part of a much longer story, that is actually MUCH darker than I've told here. I just needed to gripe, I hope that that is OK with everyone. ................................. P.S. I have one more thought..... that probably, this man is in 'The Witness Protection Program'. This is really the ONLY thing that I can think of, that makes ANY sense, as to just WHY, he has not yet been arrested! Now (today) Oct.27th, 2006. Here's the rest of the story....... ...one night in August of 2005, a ........................Police woman shows up at our front door at 1:30 AM, because this psycho had had one of his girlfriends call my brother, who then called my mother and wakes her up, and then they call my ex-wife who calls the ................... Police Dept. with all of them thinking that I had been killed in a horrible car crash (this is what he had one of his girlfriends tell my brother in the initial phone call)....... ...and the Police woman wants to know if I am ......................., and have I been in some horrible car crash? Next, he has our HOME TELEPHONE disconnected. Literally. He goes in and hacks Qwest's computers, plus, he calls them using >MY Social Security number<, pretends to BE ME, and TURNS OFF our home telephone!!! I had to go to my Doctor and get a statement saying because of my medical conditions, we HAD to have a telephone connected ASAP. It took them THREE DAYS to get our telephone service restored, and about another WEEK to get our old telephone number back. At that point Qwest was so angry, they were talking about prosecuting him, but so far......... NOTHING has come from this. He's like Bill Clinton, he's pretty much 'teflon', at least so far! He at this moment has our ISP HACKED, and they know it, but will so far, do NOTHING to stop him! We've had "items" put on our telephone line (by the Police) to catch his hang up or breathing calls where he is saying nothing on the phone, and the calls are coming from ........................ ....it has just gone on and on and on.......... ......... ...for three years now! I have lost probably 6 or 7 e-mail accounts to this mad man. We cannot NOT write certain people because he blocks the e-mails from going anywhere, I suppose they disappear into cyber space, or go into one of his computers. We are NOW on our 6th (SIXTH) computer. But as a friend of mine says; "He's just an URBAN TERRORIST", and after all of the Government's TALK about stopping terrorist's, they are only talking about folks who blow up buildings and such........ ....and NOT this kind of 'urban terrorist'. Tell me that this is NOT a sad and pitiful story of TOTAL Govt. FAILURE! For Freedom! .................... I give you my word that every WORD of this story is TRUE and actually happened. I have gone through probably 35 e-mail addresses since this began. Yes, I told the story here before. And what good did it do? ...................... asked what my disability was. My most timely disability is this psycho trying to DENY me internet access! PERIOD. My wife works for the largest hospital in ............................, and he has HER COMPUTER HACKED TOO. Everyone that she types on, he gets their Social Security Number, their age, their address, EVERYTHING. A blatant violation of the HIPPA Act! I use my REAL name when I can. That's more honest, and it's makes more sense to me. But to lose probably 35 e-mail accounts to this socio-path, OK, I'll just keep changing e-mail addresses. He wants to play, let's play. Furthermore. ...I'LL KEEP TELLING THIS STORY TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN. Is that "crazy"? I don't know. I just know that I'm pissed. Here's MORE: When you read our story here, how did it make you YOU feel? I have seen this socio-path hack: 1. The.................. Police Dept. 2. The .................. Public Library. 3. Literally hack Google's server's with impunity. Take information off, and put other information back on Google.com. 4. Hacked Amazon.com to keep me from writing book reviews. 5. Hacked every hospital that I've gone to since 2003. Which is a blatant violation of the HIPPA Act, and is a FELONY. 6. Hack www................ and literally take it down, off the internet for about a month. Solely because I (use to) write there. www.................... is a website devoted to .............................. 7. Hack........................... High Speed Internet servers. OUR ISP! 8. Hack Qwest telephone co. 9. I have literally seen him hack someone's computer in the UK, to where they had to go out and buy another hard drive for their computer. All of this, because this person was a friend of mine. 10. He literally has hardware and software that he got from another hacker that was used by our (American) goverment to spy on other countries computers overseas. How does all of this make you FEEL? I'd like to know, how does it make you feel? I'll answer another person's question here in this post. He "camps out" on our IP address inside of ..................... server's. ........................ KNOWS that he's doing this. THEY KNOW, but *refuse* to help because: "We don't get involved in personal vendetta's". And I've been told (a number of times) that it's IMPOSSIBLE to hack a computer's BIOS, going through the internet, and to hack it's actual hardware, is also IMPOSSIBLE. This crazed man is using equipment that USED TO BELONG TO THE U.S. Government. That OUR GOVERNMENT used to "hack" our enemies with. How does this make YOU feel?

I wanna say 'Thank you!' to everyone here who has been so kind to write to me! You all have been really sent by Dao to speak to me......and I REALLY appreciate each of you! 'Thank you' seems so hollow, but I'm not sure what else to say. But I was a new comer here, and you made me feel like I was right at home, and THAT feels really GOOD! Thanks again to all of you, gossamer

You know, I would simply LOVE for all of this to STOP. But this man is SICK emotionally, and some of me actually feels SORRY for him! But I don't believe that he'll EVER STOP. Ever! But mostly, I wanna get well from the emotional toll that this has taken on me. I'm gonna buy the Qi-Gong book by Roger Jahnke, I read all of the reviews at Amazon.com, and it sounds GREAT! If someone could actually use spiritual techniques to STOP THIS PERSON, I'd be FOREVER GRATEFUL!! I just wanna GET WELL, and be WHOLE, you know?? It's really pretty SIMPLE. Peace, gossamer

First, the old wise craft is way OLDER than (so-called "wicca")!! Secondly, the "wiccans" use the REDE when it's CONVENIENT for them to do so! Other times, they blow it off. I don't think that Sean would be real pleased if I told the whole 6 year story here on the Forum. It concerns a lot of things, but one of the central issues is, I used to be a patient at the hospital where he used to work (as their main computer security guy.......what a RIOT!), and he hacked my PRIVATE medical records, and put some of my PRIVATE medical information here in public, ON THE INTERNET. I told the hospital either YOU fire him, or I'm getting a lawyer, and I'm gonna sue your ass off! Long story short.....they fired him on June the 6th, 2005 (the Anniversary of D-Day which I found rather fitting!), and he's been after me before, and and after, I got him fired from his job. I'm NOT sorry, and I'd do it again tomorrow, if I had the ability. He's whined and cried because I got him fired. Too bad, so sad. Both the FBI and the Secret Service (who does cyber security for The Dept.of Homeland Security) know about him, but have SO FAR, done nothing! He also has our ISP's mainframe computers hacked TOO! And they KNOW IT, but will do nothing, because "We don't get involved in personal vendetta's". PLEASEEEEEEEEEE. He's killed off EIGHT of our our computers, and is working on number nine, and he has cost us over $6,000.00 so far. Not to mention my PTSD. He was also running tons of pornography (spam) out of the aforementioned hospital computers, and they told me that it cost them thousands of dollars to get their computers cleaned up and running again. He got NINE MONTHS of un-employment when he got fired, because the hospital was afraid that all of this this would go public.....out into the newspapers, and on to the TV news. And I DIDN'T really get him fired, *he got HIMSELF FIRED!* And that's just a small part of the story, of his 'urban terrorism'. Peace, gossamer

NO, NO That's NOT WHAT I SAID........................I said that I would ALSO include HIS OWN WEBSITE, but I would NOT do that, because IF YOU CLICK ON HIS OWN WEBSITE, THAT YOU WILL GET THE BAD STUFF...............including a keylogger. But I DID NOT put that website address on this Forum at all! Please read that post AGAIN. Thanks, gossamer I'd like to point out that Gossamer in his last post on the thread he started (Black magic..) gives a site that he says if clicked on will load a key logger virus onto your computer. If true, thats really bad and should be removed. Kinda like here's a really bad magic site, cool pictures, but don't click it. Its not a good thing to have in a post, if he's right. If he's wrong its still questionable. Michael

Dear Tao Bums Administrator, I wanted to add this to the post ON BLACK MAGIC, but I looked for it, and could not find it again. But here's the deal, I've been in a war with a (so-called) "wiccan" hacker for almost 6 (Six) YEARS now. I say "so called" wiccan, because there are other older Wise people, who despise this title. But that's ANOTHER STORY. I'm right now, on my 3rd or 4th PASSWORD for 'Tao Bums', so he's hacking your password system. I have to change my password EVERY TIME THAT I SIGN IN. I want you to know that my password is being changed. And NOT BY ME. I have a RIGHT to be on the internet, and to join any group that I wish to. He obviously does NOT want me to be a member here. If you'd like to hear the whole sordid story, please let me know, and I'll e-mail it to you. Thanks a lot for your help. gossamer

Michael - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- HERE'S *WHY* I PUT THAT POST ON THIS FORUM: Shura_no_michi_o "chances are if hes resorting to computer tricks then his magic cant be too advanced,,, if you could get any info on the person ip address etc im sure we can take care of it wink.gif"

Dear Mat, I LOVED your story! And I know for a FACT that performing Compassionate acts lengthens one's life. Thanks for your story. Peace, gossamer

"chances are if hes resorting to computer tricks then his magic cant be too advanced,,, if you could get any info on the person ip address etc im sure we can take care of it........." Here's two photos of him that are a couple of years old.......... He's "Silver Crow", the Neanderthal looking one . One of him with a woman named 'Raven' (that photo is entitled "A Crow and a Raven"), and he's in another photo with four other people. He's from Little Rock, Arkansas. I'd include his website too, BUT, if you 'click' on it, you get *20 MEGABYTES* of negative stuff, including A KEYLOGGER. http://www.ozarkppd.ozarkpagans.com/photos.htm Thanks! Peace, gossamer

I would like to ask about the book: 'Nine Nights With The Taoist Master'. Has anyone here read the book, if so, is the Deluxe Study Edition really worth the $50.00 that Amazon.com charges for it? It reputedly is a teaching manual (sort of) for a Daoist oral teaching tradition about the Tao Te Ching. I guess my question would be "Is there REALLY an oral teaching tradition about the TTC?" Would anyone care to talk about Daoist oral teachings on the Dao De Ching? Do such teachings exist? Thanks. Peace, gossamer

Dear Folks, I wanted to say 'thank you' for ALL of your answers. I bought THIS BOOK: http://www.amazon.com/Walking-Tao-Search-U...1109&sr=1-1 From amazon.com, and it was, and IS a waste of money, so I just did not wanna repeat that mistake! I think that I WILL purchase the Deluxe Study Edition of 'Nine Nights With The Taoist Master' after reading all of your posts. Thanks again. Peace, gossamer
