NEW YORK - A publicity-seeking hacker group that has blazed a path of destruction on the Internet over the last two months says it is dissolving itself.

Lulz Security made its announcement Saturday through its Twitter account. In an unusual strategy for a hacker group, LulzSec has used the account as a publicity platform while remaining anonymous.

The group's disbandment comes unexpectedly, and could be a sign of nerves in the face of law enforcement investigations. One of the group's six members was interviewed by The Associated Press on Friday, and gave no indication that its work was ending.

LulzSec claimed hacks on major entertainment companies, FBI partner organizations, the CIA, the US Senate and a pornography website.
