Hey all you that think you've got some skills... Here's a great website to sest how good you really are. I've just finished 6 of the 15 challenges... definately a humbling experience that I haven't been able to do more.

Think I have solutions to a few of them, but my headers won't play nice.

There used to be a good site called hackerslab.org, which let you do a series of tests on a linux box, but it seems to be gone now.

Got 7 of them so far. Not what I thought it was at first glance (which is you'll always find the answer in the source comments type ones ). Some really tough ones there.

My current progress

Very nice! My progress here: http://jacka18l.templeofgloom.com/profile.php?id=207

I got 7, too. Though I got #5 while you got #7 (which was alot harder).

How come I thought you were the only good competition here.

Now I'm going to have to redouble my efforts!

Up to 8. Got the zip one out of the way.

Focusing on #11, but as near as I can tell the password isn't a dictionary word, although I still have to pass it through a few more variants.

Finished #11, though couldn't update my progress as the site's being updated now.

Damn, really falling behind .

15??? Not many have gotten that one.

Yeah, I taught myself assembly code* yesterday. That sucked. Then, I hear that there's a much simpler way (though no one's shared it with me yet).


*at least, enough to run programs at arbitrary points wthin ther binary code.

There's another site that has the same type of stuff (although some is really crypto stuff instead of hacking).
