Anyone can change the Caller ID to show up as any phone number they want. On TechTv reformed hacker Kevin Mitnick called Leo Leport and the number that showed up on Leo's phone was that of the White House, 1-202-450-1414. __________ If you give a little they give a lot. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/disco
