I just got a slight flashback to my 15 year old self sitting in front of little "crackme" programs ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crackme ) Nice to see that things change, but do somehow remain the same :)

You too... I remember spending a whole summer going through theses , fun times.

I came across a USB thumb drive from when I was in highschool (freshmen), and I was embarrassed when I looked at it just recently...I was storing login credentials in a browser cookie, and not a session cookie, how insecure but I didn't know any better at the time...

This is a great initiative. I hope this would be awesome for various framework developers. Kudos!

Nice concept. Good that I can try it out without having to create an account.

I came here to say that I wanted to try it but it prompted me to login when I clicked on one of the pre-made hacks, so I bailed.

You could also have clicked "Try It Now", solved a captcha, and continued without having to log in.
