tried it out.
Speed ain't that bad at all. U are getting bad speed b/c of this:
Open a browser ... put the following in the address bar:
{ when using the adbar.... keep the window it opens ... open ... & see the
location is goes to... { the line below is cleverly hidden } }
"http://www.caltiger.com/freetiger2/TrackUserUpdLogout.asp?UserName=****&Password=****&VersionNo=1.0.0&Type=ping"
replace username / password accordingly.
i.e. the secret.... the verification takes place thru' this. A closer look at
the full line will explain why...
i think a closer examination may show a way to bypass the username /
password.... ???? any takers .... though my guess is... for proper access... all
four vars need to be verified ...
( if they haven't done this... well.......... .. thats too bad for them}
NOTE: The above is for PURE ACADEMIC PURPOSES... I take no responsibility :-)
lemme know if this makes a diff.
HAVE FUN.
