Lost Experience: site down!

June 20, 2006 ·

Whoa, so it looks like thehansofoundation.org website has been hacked. There site has gone down and is all red and there is only a message saying
The Hanso Foundation site has been hacked by malicious infiltrators seeking to blemish the good work of many dedicated researchers. Until a legal investigation is completed, the site will no longer be accessible to the public. Namaste.
Looking a the sourcecode though, what do we see? A hidden link to http://www.rachelblake.com/ which seems to be just a blog about someone going to Denmark (hold on isnt Alvar Hanso from Denmark?) Just has one post but nothing that interesting in it apart from the background image which seems to show Alvar's travels. There is also a box asking for "Extra Info" which is actually a flash file called "checkpass.swf" so its time to find a password! If anyone can spot more clues there let me know! I shall be having a proper look today

    You and Raymond both have issues. When I see weaponized nerve gas and "multi-node cell phones" on Lost, I'll watch it. WE"RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!

    Haha, it is a bit weird. If you listen long enough then you hear a womans voice...........but I can't make any sense of the words, think it might be backwards.

    Also have you noticed on the main Hanso site, where it gives the notice about being hacked.............that if you don't move your mouse the sound gets louder and louder. But if you move your mouse the sound stops and restarts again...........hmmmmmmmmmm.........very straneg. I left the mouse alone for ages and the sound got to a certain level and just stayed there, but nothing else happened.

    hmm yeah its strange eh... there is normally numbers on her page so maybe she is saying numbers?
    if there is anyway to get to them, i dont really know anything about editing sounds :< lol

    Okay I must have missed it before..... if you don't move the cursor when on the "Hanso is Hacked" main page then the sound gets louder and louder. Then eventually a link appears under the Hanso name, you gotta be quick as it dissappears after a second.

    Link is titled "orientation testing issue 1980" and here is the link:
