Warning!
We have to say (unhappyly eehhe) that deface its crime and can give to chain in some countries the website www.defacers-challenge.com and ur webhosting dont have responsibility on the acts (defacing) of the websites.


Anyone doubts contact us :

desafio@defacers-challenge.com or admin@defacers-challenge.com

However, more and more sources think its all hype or a complete hoax:

http://news.zdnet.co.uk/story/0,,t269-s2137062,00.html

I think that you will see some defacements whether it was hype or a hoax or not. It is out there now so every wannabe hacker and script kiddy will be trying something. I don't think it will bring the Internet to its knees or anything though.

By the way- does anyone have any idea what time zone the zone-h.org web site is in???

[Galdron]

The internet traffic report is very interesting. Indonesia is hating it right now, with a 21% compared to our 93. According to the information on that site. We are not experiencing any major problems. It will be interesting to moniter this.

:P:

I heard about this or something similar on the news earlier today. There were more details than anyone has listed here, but there was no date or time announced. The specifics were that whoever could break into 6,000 websites in 6 hours first would win the prize. Something like this could seriously affect the 'net. I haven't heard anythng more about it since this morning though, so anybody with an update please feel free to let everyone in on it.

Go up about 3 posts from yours to the post from DJM followed by the post from me.

The post from DJM included the text from the defacers-challenge.com site including the timeframe of the attacks (9am to 3pm based on the time zone of the zone-h.org web site).

My post contained the complete rest of the text from the site including the rules and scoring.

I don't think there ARE any more details than that right now.

well crap. I don't usually make mistakes like that....just whenever I totally crash. I don't personally like excuses...giving or taking them but I'm seriously crashing right now bc I'm running on very little sleep and I just ran 6 miles for some t-shirt that dad says we *have* to have. Sorry TonyBradley for missing your post. And I'll be very interested to see the results of this little defacement contest. What will be even more interesting is (since there's so much media coverage) the reaction it will bring. I can't even begin to imagine what could happen as a result of these attacks.....but hopefully one of the results will be that webmasters and computer administrators will wake up and start making their systems/sites more secure. I think it's nap time...... Please don't judge me too harshly for my mistake.

Please don't judge me too harshly for my mistake.

No "judging" at all. Just trying to help you find the info you asked for. I know that sometimes when I join a thread late and it already has 2 or 3 pages of posts I sometimes don't read every single one to catch up and might ask a repeat question or post a repeat answer- it happens.

Well i think its gonna be called off with all this publicity

Its the same as if BIN LADEN called bush and said he was gonna attack on Sunday, then ol' BUSH(uhhh.. all ..uuhhhh ...do respect...)would make the navy ,army and what ever,ready for a war on Sunday ,but in mean time thats jus a decoy and WHAM!!!!! Saturday the whole america perishes. Kinda like that.

So expect it when you shouldn't expect it

[RunningDuck]

My only real question is, since this is a fairly prominent hacker community, with some mad knowledgable people and people with a lot of contacts, I'm wondering if anyone here even knows anyone who intends to participate in this?

Did a little snooping and the main page is a frame...
Actual site is here....
