interesting. These type of contests are getting to be more and more popular these days.

 They dont seem to be returning ping (echo) requests. Actually, maybe there has been a winner, because their computers seem to be down.

I think that they have found a wiener, because their computers dont seem to be up, either that or they totally disabled all internet activity and claimed that it is a normal security setup.

Seems I can't ping the Mac OS X machine. Is it even up?

But at least i could traceroute the XP one, Mac OS X
couldnt traceroute properly... Im running nMap scans
and stuff.


when i did a syn stealth scan i couldnt get a response (i didnt ping)
I also tried to do a UDP scan on the win and didnt get a response.
I tired both of the scans at insane speed.
I did every other type of scan nmap does to the win machine (except FIN XMAS and NULL, windows doesnt support them) and didnt get a response.
i didnt try a traceroute.
