A hacked module -- a form, Hubbell theorized -- was generating thousands of emails to joe2006.com addresses. Even after removing various functions from the site, the problems persisted, Hubbell told me. "There were multiple spam attacks," he recalled. "It seemed like it was internally spamming itself, and there was also potentially an outside source that was hitting it."

"There's. . . some investigation going on to as to seeing where the spamming came from," Hubbell said. "That's offsite, more on where the Lieberman committee is at."

Do you mean that the Lieberman campaign is investigating the spamming itself? "Yes," Hubbell replied.
