As mentioned above hacking doesn't need to be bad...
There was a case last year where hackers broke into Tiscali (Switzerland) servers. They were so kind and sent the admins and webmasters an email with info on how they got in....
Anyway, two months later, the same hacker just turned 500 business sites down. They were just renaming all index files and replace them with a notice that Tiscali has been warned about the security hole but that they didn't took any measures to close it...
I think hacker's that just break into system for the fun of the challenge are cool... but altering data is something I don't like to. In the above case everything could be restored with a few commands,,,
