Is it that hard? My understanding is that most hacks nowdays are made by automated tools that scan networks for victims. They hardly need 30 second to hack the system (assuming the system has remotly exploitable holes known for such tool). Though probability of getting hacked by such tool during such small window should low. -- Ilya Martynov (http://martynov.org/)
