Well, David Hicks and Neil Pinkawa are the lead motion graphic designer and lead screen graphics artist on the film.

Chris McBride is the computer & video supervisor.

No surprise these folks would cement their names forever in cinema history given their respective positions.

Thanks Neil (I think!). It was the other half that spotted actually, but yes, you're right, it was a bit sad of me to get all the screenshots and even look up "thenet.com" on whois! But it did get me about 6000 hits off digg.com, so I guess there's a lot of other nerds out there too. Anyway, I was just in the middle of rearranging my cutlery drawer!!

Well, Mr pinksy (you sad man) i am the graphic designer and animator responsible for this screen as well as all of the others in the film! Firstly the names are all sony production cleared names (people from production) (check the credits!!!, you obviously have lots of time!) also 'thenet.com' is a legally cleared URL for use in the film! The pure fact that this screen shot is visible for only a split second states how very empty your life must be!!!

...well, you see theres a thing called a filler. it just makes the movie look better and keeps thought like this going. you do have a lot of time on your hands, but hey, its decently spent. better than other things. its probably nothing and they used an inbox/outbox from one of their workers and that stuff happened to be there. but its always fun to look at these. so congrats... seriously

Still doesn't explain why Security Update was the last email sent, and before that was Security Update 3.

Ha! "Stationary Request." Either he can't spell, or he means a request which is not moving. The stuff you write letters on is spelled with an "e"--"stationery."

"So why would he send three security updates in descending order to three different people?! Must be a spy thing."
well if i remeber correctly its a play on the fact that the recipients of the security updates are IT based people attached to the movies production.
however the david hicks email could be a reference to the australian terror suspect of the same name.

I imagine the 85kb comes from the large letter head, which most likely is an image and not text.

If you look at the "inbox" section it's sorted by received ascending so the newest is at the bottom (see today's messages, assuming the ones above it are previous days.) The outbox is sorted by date received descending and it appears he responded to each email not in the order they were received but by newest to oldest(removing the "re: " on each) shortly before filing his resignation.
