His "webpage" (with it's own domain name, no less) is written in an MS dialect of HTML. That in itself isn't so bad, and I wouldn't have noticed. Except when I pull my scroll bar on a webpage with plain text and my system _LAGS_, I check the source. Good god what does he have there. If you clean it (17.5KB) up, the text is 3.5 times smaller (5KB!). He does IT? He should know this.
The cost to contract out this analysis would most likely run at least $350 a hour. At that rate, the average cost for analyzing this binary would have been $28,000.
This must be good news for the participants, not to mention the winners!
Hopefully this won't get lost in the myriad of comments, but here's a link to 122 sample pages, readable by any graphics capable browser. Especially interesting is the index.

Looks like geographical coordinates to me.
Should'a used Vitria's BAM!

It's gotta do with your Google cookie.
