rascalee Posted April 29, 2008 Author Share Posted April 29, 2008 the group you're looking at will never meet your requirements, but good luck. have you tried craigslist? I am leveraging all resources, including those who read these forums. There is a lot of opportunity simply through networking even if the person reading an ad isn't interested, there's always a chance that they know a superstar themselves. Thank you for the suggestion.

unasoto Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 I never thought about reading classified ads for background info on someone to hack. Look at all the info they just gave out about their network. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
