I believe that it is Hijacking, though, if this is a homework question, I wouldn't trust this site that much. You can probably find free homework help online in other places.





Phishing is attempting to fraud someone into giving out information on the web.





Sequestering is a biological term. EDIT: (Not really. I based this off of a quick search. As most biological words go, they have a basis in the language. The Free dictionary defines it as: 1. To cause to withdraw into seclusion.


2. To remove or set apart; segregate. See Synonyms at isolate.


3. Law


a. To take temporary possession of (property) as security against legal claims.


b. To requisition and confiscate (enemy property).





Looking at 3, it seems like it could be a good answer, but since the property wasn't yours, then it would be wrong.)





Attacking could be a good choice, but since attacking has the connotation that you would be harming the other's computer, this would not be a good answer.





So pick 1.
