Computer challenge

I'll put it in white so if anyone doesn't want to see some Level 7 ideas can just skip it.

The way a website knows what software you are using to look at the site is asking the user's software for the User Agent, that's simply a text string that contains the software name, OS and it's compatibility with other browsers. So, any program that lets you change the user agent is good. And then you also need to cheat the referrer page, the one you supposedly used to get there.

Getright can do both. Lets you edit the user agent to anything you want and set up special refererrs for specific servers.

Level 9 now... really stuck there

Level 9 now... really stuck there

Right on. I used IE, regedit, notepad, my hosts file, and turned my PC into a web server... but I got it done nonetheless. I haven't even tried level 8 yet, once I passed 7 I decided to fulfill my [ms] fix. Good to see someone here actually knows how to use the Internet, aside from just searching and browsing on it.

on Level 4 at the mo, have downloaded the password4.class... rumaging through that for something that might help...

but my eyes are going all squidgy... god knows if I'm even looking in the right place at the mo

Ooookay... I just got to level 9, and 8 was pretty tough. A lot of research needed on that one... In case anybody wants to look forward to level 9:

All of the levels until level 5 are possible without any external software... once you get there you need to resort to tools that aren't part of Windows.

It isn't in the class file.

Don't bother with downloading Visual Basic, you don't need it. VB doesn't let you open compiled VB executables.
