ArmA 2 site hacked

Bit off-topic but

03SEP28: Discovery of penicillin

The person that discovered penicillin is a relative of mine

[Mr. Charles 22]

FADE is imho, the most advanced copyprotection and the best. It is unlikely that they will change this working system for no good reasons. Or these persian hackers are really good and found a workaorund.

[nodunit 397]

That was my thoughts too, that stuff was encrypted for a reason, i bet BIS didnt think we would take everything they gave us apart bit by bit untill there was nothing left ^^ :p this community is dangerous when you feed it information :p

Weeeell technicly the community has in the past, legal or no.

Does "Silicon Heating Device" ring a bell to anyone here?

I literaly ""Search The Users" on this forum and this came up following "Tahlo"

It googles as trace heating, which I do know a little about.

What has stopping pipes bursting in the winter got to do with Arma though?

Well

I think that we can assume that calling a php file with the correct name (in this case we can supose it was Scott Miller's DOB) would activate the hack and would unlock the ftp:\\www.p8h8.info domain.

If that's true, we can assume that someone created the correct file at around 21:10 GMT, because three minutes later the http://www.p8h8.info/Programs domain was rendered unavailable.

So, please, if someone posted something at around that time, that could possibly be the correct DOB of Scott Miller, please post it here.

I have some ideas about this

Some data:

The last event in the list is the Berlin's wall's fall, in 1989.

After that comes Scott Miller is born.

All phps end with the number 500. Other phps are not created if they don't end following this format

date format can be DD/MM/YY or MM/DD/YY

If we assume that the DOB is following one of those formats, then the 500 could represent M/YY or D/YY. That would mean the the two Zeros would represent year 2000.

That would mean that

a) Scott Miller was born in May 2000

OR

b) Scott Miller was born on the fifth,fifteenth or twentyfifth of one month in 2000.

What do you think?

[gammadust 12]

I really don't know, I just singled out that one since the results for "Barel" are usualy mispelings of "barrel", "Roamer" and "Exorcist" seams a dead end or totaly unrelated.

That thread is the single one were "Tahlo" appears aside of "ArmA 2 site hacked" one.

[scajolly 14]

Táhlo is a handle, something pulled.

Personally think the "tally ho" similarity is more striking, and conforms to the pattern (if Barel is "barrel"). I think barel is Czech for barrel, the kind you put fluids in, not a gun barrel. ;)

[Mr. Charles 22]

If Scott Miller was born in 2000, ArmA series will have a bigger expansion or ArmA3. No way they are going to jump 20 years into the future for a DLC.

[UnuldorCZ 10]

Hi folks... i got finally through all the posts - or i think so... dont know if it matters, but the two names of the users with QRcode avatars are in Czech language...

Tahlo - Rod (has to be pulled down as a switch or some kind of device)

Barel - Drum or Barrel

Hope it will help.

I didnt posted something useful a long time ;)

EDIT: CRAAAAPPP... again late x.X

[Daniel 0]

A pull handle, a barrel...

Anyone else thinking beer?

I also think this Scott Miller being born in 2000 sounds way too far in the future. Hopefully whatever BIS have planned doesn't happen to far after Arrowhead. I'd go along with the "late twenties or older" line of thought for an SBS Captain. 1989 or very shortly afterwards sounds more plausible.

[gammadust 12]

I think that we can assume that calling a php file with the correct name (in this case we can supose it was Scott Miller's DOB) would activate the hack and would unlock the ftp:\\www.p8h8.info domain.

(...)

500 in context can also be as in "500 Internal Server Error".

So who is running seeker in speed up mode? What year is it now?

[gammadust 12]

^^ check doesn't really matter how fast the "seeking" was going, someone extracted the strings all together.

What do you think?

Have tried iterations of

usernames: smiller, millerscott, scottmiller, millers

passwords: 22061989 - 2005ish. (so YYYY)

Not tried MM.DD, nor YY format.

Edit.

But the DATE for Miller matters. Or maybe not...

[cannonouscrash 12]

How do you run it in speed up mode?

[max power 21]

You can find out what is already known about the years on the armaenigma wiki. They've already been through like 10 significant dates, and that was hours ago.

[blu3sman 11]

Don't remember who that was, but he got increments 10ms instead of default 90ms, if i understand everything correct. So 9 times faster.

[gammadust 12]

Indeed!!! my bad, overlooking that one! :o

[scajolly 14]

If we were doing this quicker than BIS expected, why did someone go through a webhost in Illinois with a server in the Czech Republic to add "22 June ..." to the armaeanigma wiki? If anything, are we perhaps advancing more slowly? It'd seem something of a tease.

01AUG39: Outbreak of World War II

Would be true... if WW2 did not start on September 1st 1939.

Don't ask me how, I just happen to know... :P

"Iran Air flight 655 is shot down by U.S. missiles" - 3 July 1988

This still interests me, there were more 'important' events (relatively speaking) in 1988, another reference to Iran / Persia...

[gammadust 12]

Server reacts (in error) to

http://www.p8h8.info/Scott.Miller.born.500.php

not sure if that means as soon as we have a fixed date, that we can inquire the server with no errors...

[cannonouscrash 12]

Dale are you still scanning?
