Fark.com founder Drew Curtis used his server logs to prove that Darrell Phillips, a media manager at WHBQ Fox12 based in Memphis, tried to install a trojan on Fark servers that would allow him to access the site's source code. On at least one occasion, he or one of his associates were able to access the code.
