Almost no one thinks to simply unplug the target computer from the network because apparently [[Everything Is Online]], always.

Line 16:
* In ''Demon Hunters: Dead Camper Lake'', two Cyborg [[Dueling Hackers]] complete with ominously named programs with skull icons, while sitting face to face at the same table. Eventually, the losing cyborg shrugs, picks up his laptop and clubs his enemy to death.
* A slowed down and scaled up version: The ''[[.hack]]'' plot-lines for the ''Twilight'' manga and anime involve a group of hackers breaking down an [[MMORPG]] while the game's programmers try and counter the slow infection.
* ''[[Hanaukyo Maid Tai (Anime)|Hanaukyo Maid Tai]]''. In episode 8 the Jihiyou family hacks into the MEMOL supercomputer to steal information (and possibly activate the mansion's [[Self -Destruct Mechanism]]). Grace manages to defeat them.
* It's not really made that much of, but this happens between Yatouji Satsuki and Imonoyama Nokoru in ''[[X 1999]]''. She is trying to hack into the computers of CLAMP Campus and he is trying to keep her out. Given that Satsuki is a technopath working in tandem with a supercomputer, the fact that Nokoru actually manages to make it combat instead of a [[Curb Stomp Battle]] is [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|pretty impressive]].
* Happens often enough in ''[[Dennou Coil]]'', since realspace and cyberspace are linked. A particularly heated one happens between Isako and Fumie early on.
