AC/DC rocker Brian Johnson is not a happy man and has waged war on the "dirty little git" who leaked their latest album online.

Although Brian is relieved that the online debacle didn�t ruin the success of the band's first album in eight years.

Black Ice hit stores in October, and after the little rascal leaked it onto the internet, Johnson and his band mates feared the security leak would wreck the release and cost them millions in album sales.

To show his appreciation he thanks fans for ignoring the internet bootleg and going out and buying the CD, helping them top charts around the world; "Some dirty little git in Europe had recorded a copy of the album - he was arrested, by the way - and at some pressing plant in Germany, thousands of copies had gotten out.

�We thought, 'Well, that's it. Once it gets out on the Internet, it's like a feeding frenzy.' But it didn't happen; fans went out and bought the album. They wanted the album; they wanted a physical body of work in their hands".
