Iranian take on the Christian Science Monitor report
Fars News Agency :: Report Alleges US Drone Cheated by Iran

Includes a veiled threat;
"Hacking such an extremely sophisticated system, which until last week was considered impossible, means that the Iranians are able to enter all computer-based network systems in the US and Europe. Since the algorithm and logic behind other systems are much simpler, the Iranians may be able to control all radars, satellites, planes, ships, tanks, rockets, cruise missiles and so on of the US and NATO throughout the world. They may be able to even control American soldiers, who are driven to fight using satellite controlled infrared systems."
A bit of hyperbole (or even bollox) there, but it does raise some interesting questions
