Anonymous hacktivists say Wikileaks war to continue

A member of the Anonymous group of hackers, which has been targeting firms it sees as being anti-Wikileaks has said the campaign is not over.

This signs them up to a so-called botnet, an army of machines that can then launch attacks. Overnight Visa became the latest victim.
