Wavmanuk is the alias for a famous adult password hacker from the UK (hence the name WavManUK). Back in the day (1996) when adult site password hacking began wavmanuk was the most respected and feared password hacker of the time. To this day I have yet to see someone with the skills wavemanuk possessed. In his time he could hack hundreds of sites a day, posting thousands of working passwords without ever being caught. Now you can see why CCBill has so much animosity towards his name.

XXXpassword.org, zulu.org, passwordhq.com, and many others were sites that grew in size (300,000 hits per day) because of wavmanuk's contributions. Last I heard (1998) wavmanuk had a child and retired from the business. Apparently, he is set for life after making upwards of $60,000/week hacking adult sites. Wavmanuk's home on the web was at one time crazypasses.com, which has since been taken over by some corporation.
You can still see tributes to the famous hacker on password sites today as young hackers continue to use the name "wavmanuk" in freshly hacked usernames and passwords.

It was fun to be apart of things at that time, nowadays everything has been established. I guess the glory days have to end sometime...hope this helps.

Maybe someone from CCBIll can shed some light?
