    Maybe if the prize was something useful, I might be interested. I have my hands full exploiting MySpace.

    Shooting you in the head is illegal no matter what, but hacking away at a computer is only illegal if you don't have permission to do so. Otherwise, everyone who ever mplemented and tested their own security, everyone who took potshots at their own firewall, and every professional computer security tech who ever did his or her job at all, would be a criminal.
