Hacker Test
I doubt very many of you visit the homepage, and probably just come straight here, right? Well, if you have been there, you've probably noticed a few minor changes. Now it's not all ugly and white with loads of crap on it, but instead the background and text/link colors match this blog, and I've added a 'bookmarks' section.
This is where I have simply exported my Firefox bookmarks, and uploaded them to my website. There's a section on 'Hacking' none-the-less, however I've taken a few of the more 'serious' ones out, due to me not wanting to get screwed over by my web host. The few I have there now are probably against the ToS, but I'll re-read it, then contact the administrator later so I can be sure.
You might want to check them out, or you might want to stay away from it. You're choice, but they are kinda cool. So far I've gotten the most output from the 'Videos' section, seeing how funny they all are. :P
The next most popular link would be the Hacker Test. What the point of it is, is to get the password and 'hack' the site. That's worded a little funny, so you might want to go there to see what I mean. The first level is pretty easy, so I'll show/tell you how to pass Level 1, but from there on you're on your own.
Level 1
Right (pretty much) anywhere on the page, then select, "View Page Source." This may be called something different on Internet Explorer (I use FireFox), but I'm not sure.
You should now see a page with lots of funny text and 'commands' on it. This is just basic HTML, so it's not that hard and don't start freaking out.
Somewhere in the html you should see the following-
The main part of this would be -
What this translates to is-
Variable A is equal to "null"
It checks what you typed into the box, and if it is equal to Variable A (null), then it will take you to http://www.hackertest.net/Variable A.htm.
Remember Variable A is equal to "null" so if you enter "null" it will take you to the page, "Http://www.hackertest.net/null.htm"
So there's how Level 1 works, now can you figure out Level 2?

Heh, I just use Google Bookmarks for all my bookmarking needs. I only keep a small handful of my bookmarks in Firefox.. only the ones that are buttons at the top on my menu bar :D
I wanna try this hacker test. I won't get very far though, but I'll give it a shot. And I'm not a big fan of autoplaying music on web pages, since I have iTunes running 90% of the time I'm on the computer, but whatever.

Dude! Adrian and I got up to Level 15! Well.. we did google for help on Level 8 (we had absolutely no idea where to find the username and password) and on Level 10, we put in the correct password and the web server threw up a php error at us, so we had to google the next URL ourselves. But that one was the server's fault :P
But yeah, Adrian had forgotten how to do most of the levels and I was right there breezing through them. Oh yes. :P
