I dont know if Rep. Weiner sent the photo or not but my account was hacked
once and everybody in my contact list was sent numerous embarrassing messages before I realized what was going on. It was very embarrassing and I had to contact everybody on my list and explain and hope they believed me. I never knew this but there are lots and lots of computer programs that can crack most passwords in a matter of minutes. I have to give Weiner the benefit of the doubt on this one for now.

1. He didn't send it and yFrog has suspended the service
that allowed the hacker in.
