5. It was likely a prank
I've seen it done before. Some hackers got into the RIAA site a while back and allowed them to host the new Linkin Park CD a week before it's release.

Most likely it was some kids pranking around. Freepers are too stupid to hack computers.

I wouldn't host the files yourself if I were you. Very illegal, and you can be held liable for some pretty steep fines.

Anyone who wants the download bad enough can go on eMule, Kazaa or Direct Connect and get it. You can also find verified file sites like Share Reactor as well.
