| Wal-Mart uncovered the breach in November 
| 2006, after a fortuitous server crash led 
| administrators to a password-cracking tool 
| that had been surreptitiously installed on one 
| of its servers. Wal-Martâs initial probe 
| traced the intrusion to a compromised VPN 
| account, and from there to a computer in 
| Minsk, Belarus.
