A script kiddie [1] hacks into a computer and goes out of its way to demonstrate its ignorance by doing stupid things like downloading a file, but being unable to locate it or downloading Windows Service Pack on what seems to be a *nix system.

Luckily, the hacked computer wasn't a real computer but a honey pot [2] and everything the script kiddie does is recorded for our amusement.

It's a bit like watching a bank robber sporting a big gun without knowing which way to point it.

A script kiddie got SSH access to this honeypot (system setup to catch this type of activity and log it). He then attempted to download and run various rootkits/hacks/flooders/whatever. He repeatedly tried to change to a non-existant directory, run perl (which wasn't installed), and downloaded a Windows update (pointless on a non-Windows system).

To summarize, a wannabe hacker got access to a system and didn't know what to do.
