WebApp Sec: Re: eWeek OpenHack challenge

Bryce,
        I completely agree with you.  If they want someone to stress their Microsoft 
IIS Security Service packs, they should hire an MCSE monkey instead of 
wasting our time.  I hope they throw up an interesting network to hack next 
time, because this is BORING.


Thanks to all that listened.
