[uk-vac] OT: Firewall Movie!

Well it's time for another "Hacking" type movie!
This time it's Harrison Ford's turn, check it out:-

Trivia: in the movie "Matrix Revolutions" where they need to take the
power down in the building you may notice them "hacking" in. If you
look closely this is one of the few "real" hacks, e.g. they use Nmap
and so on. Check it out.

Cheers,
Dave.

I suppose the original hacking movie had to be WarGames. Quite enjoyed it
at the time. That said was some years ago now!!!!LOL

Indeed, top film, and of course early on in the film you see Mr.
Broderick playing Galaga in an Arcade with some nice cabs in the
background including Tron, etc.

When he's "hacking" in, looks like sequencial dialling or sommik,
look at the PC(if you can call it that), think there's 5 1/4" discs,
don't think it's even older 8" ones... With the 5 1/4" we managed a
wopping 360k(double sided) or 1.2Mb with the rarer high-density ones
and you needed the better drive of course.

Anyone remember "Astrotit" or "Alleycat" or even "Flightmare"????

Cheers,
Dave.
