The hackers, who targeted a personal Yahoo account, posted several messages and family photos from her inbox.

The campaign of running mate John McCain condemned their action as "a shocking invasion of the governor's privacy and a violation of the law".

The hacking comes amid questions about whether Mrs Palin used personal e-mail to conduct state business.

According to law, all e-mails relating to the official business of government must be archived and not destroyed. However, personal e-mails can be deleted.

Now, McCain can say why he is less of a security risk: he doesn't know how to operate a computer.

McCain can use a computer, the problem is he has a disability which makes it difficult for him to use a keyboard. He's managed to get through life very well without a lot of computer use up to now. Besides, he has assistants to do that.
