Hackers Claim $10K Prize For StrongWebmail Breakin

Posted by Soulskill on from the worth-their-while dept.

alphadogg writes "Telesign, a provider of voice-based authentication software, challenged hackers to break into its StrongWebmail.com Web site late last week. The prize: $10,000. On Thursday, a group of security researchers claimed to have won the contest, which challenged hackers to break into the Web mail account of StrongWebmail CEO Darren Berkovitz and report back details from his June 26 calendar entry. The hackers, led by Secure Science Chief Scientist Lance James and security researchers Aviv Raff and Mike Bailey, provided details from Berkovitz's calendar to IDG News Service. In an interview, Berkovitz confirmed those details were from his account. However, Berkovitz could not confirm that the hackers had actually won the prize. He said he would need to check to confirm that the hackers had abided by the contest rules, adding, 'if someone did it, we'll kind of put our heads down.'"

    Make sure that it runs bash, vi, iptables, SSHd, Squid, Apache, MySQL and KDE, otherwise it doesn't count.

    Shut up you fucking nigger. KDE? Looks and acts like shit, just like you. It's the GUI embodiment of geeks who dont get any pussy.

    "Hey, let's make things as needlessly ugly and needlessly complicated as possible!"

    If you're going to be needlessly ugly then at least be a nigger - at least you'll have a footlong cock. Otherwise just shut the fuck up.

    Recent versions of KDE are the result of a bunch of virgins getting together to decide the best way to get laid. Go GNIGGER. Go GNOME.

    Technically, a dickhead will have a much bigger penis than you or me can ever dream of.

    On top of that, he will have a tounge on the dick, thus allowing penetration and licking of the clit at the same time.

    Thus a dickhead can provide a woman with levels of pleasure far above anything we can come up with.
