I don't think sandra bulloc is in Hackers. The female hacker was played
by Angelia Jolie. She married the male lead in that film as her
(first?) husband.
Sandra Bulloc was in "The Net." They showed that stupid virus that
allowed you to hit "pi" and randomly get into hospitals or government
agencies.

There used to be an online archive of movies including a documentary of
"Hactic" by a German film maker (in English) which was excellent but I have
lost it.
