What a joke of a company

First off, they require you to pay for registration, second the registration site is down.

sounds like they are trying to raise press and issue a so-called "hacker challenge" merely as a ploy to drum up business.

site looks terrible, btw.

Yeah, do you have to filter out Human factor?

I wonder if you could just green-light a viri to the registration email address or the postmaster address....


That would be cool or, find out who the domain registrar is and spoof email stating that they have been hacked "Click here it see the results"..

I guess since they are the only ones who would know if they clicked on the link, we would never know.


I say, let CNN review it...
Put up or shut up...

They need help.

I went to their website to see if I could apply to accept the challenge, and I thought it might help them more if I offered to fix their website first. Pass me offer along :)
