Subject: IIS hacking contest

Has no one learned from these contests yet that they don't work, not
even for reasons of being a false way to test security, but because the
servers are never able to stay online for more than an hour because of
denial of service attacks.

The "funny" part is if the server gets DDoS'd then so will Windows IT
Pro magazine whom is hosting the hack server (now at least) on the same
subnet as their main website and with the same routes of course... Maybe
they can product test some Arbor networks gear while they are at it :-)
two for one.

Then again we did break our last xbox, so hmmmm

| Here's your chance to shut up all those IIS people from 
| saying it is secure.
| (Or prove them right)
| There is a contest to hack IIS, and the winner gets an XBOX, 
| plus the pride of saying that they have hacked an 
| "impenetrable IIS environment."
