Please be aware that unless the originating IP is a dialup IP, it's very
likely that it's not an NMT employee, but rather someone who broke into
their site before breaking into yours. Maybe even an automatic "worm"-like
script run by a sinister organization that plans to control all the computers
in Israel to let it do computer-terrorism in some later date (I'm hearing
the X-Files tune in my mind right now).
So please be gentle with them, and start by telling them that someone might
have broken into their machine - not by accusing them or threatening to
go to the police.
