Someone at Core just figured out that mcgrewsecurity.com ranks higher than coresecurity.com for their own party:
20090629.log:208.253.45.86 - - [29/Jun/2009:14:15:29 -0400] "GET /2009/06/24/core-security-apologizes-not-cool-enough-for-core-2009-gathering-proposed/ HTTP/1.0" 200 5366 "http://www.google.com/search?q=core+security+party+at+black+hat&rls=com.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=ie7&rlz=1I7ADBF_en" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.0.4506.2152; .NET CLR 3.5.30729)"
(and the FunWebProducts one came back)

Give’m hell……
This is some fun reading….
Keep it up!

Spectacular. FunWebProducts isn’t even in business anymore, as far as I can tell; this machine would have to have been infested by spyware for *years*.
That’s just hilarious.
