Eric Harris' Webpages
Eric had an active online presence, participating in a number of pastimes over the internet which included playing Doom deathmatches and being involved in a Quake team. He made websites where he posted about the games he played. He distributed the levels (wads) he made for the first-person shooter games and he had more than one website that contained violent lyrics of the songs he liked. Online he wrote rage-filled rants about life, web-postings that became the subject of much public scrutiny after the April 20, 1999.
In the months that followed the shootings, the contents of the pages were sealed by the FBI and it was hard to locate this info once AOL and WBS pulled the sites not long after their discovery. I managed to get into Eric's accounts and save several of the files, though I wasn't there soon enough to get copies of any of the AOL html that Eric coded -- just the WBS html, which was mostly bad jokes and song lyrics. Through various sources I was able to track down scans of the text versions of many of his AOL pages but what the actual sites looked like is impossible to say.
The AOL directories are mirrored here but to give a better sense of what the site might have offered I put together a few pages back in 1999, to display the graphics along with the files they went to (rather than a list of links). Over the years these mock pages have been mistaken by visitors as being Eric's own pages, and have been copied and posted on other websites as being his. Since discovering these mistaken mirrors I've added disclaimer notes the pages I created so there's no confusion over which are Eric's real web pages. If you see content elsewhere that resemble these noted pages, you can be sure they are simply copies of my original un-noted pages and not Eric's actual HTML pages.
