full storyAlmost 1,000 Danish websites have been defaced by Islamic hackers protesting about controversial cartoons mocking the Prophet Muhammad.
The attacks typically replace home pages with pro-Islam messages and condemn the publication of the images.
Hack attack monitoring group Zone-H said the defacements were done both by hacker groups and individuals.
Zone-H said some hackers left moderate messages but many called for a violent response to the cartoons' publication.
