Hey all,

I'm looking for a bit of advice running the client at my work.

We have a proxy server that is invisible(well, at least that my IT depts excuse for not telling me what it's called) That is open on port 80.

Is there anyway I can set the client up to run using port 80 without knowing the proxies name?

Cheers

Paul

Sorry, but I'm really lazy, and have not read through 65 pages of a post. I apologize for having a life.

But I'm not sure if anybody has considered this yet, but the first twelve labors have first words that only happen from a certain set: Slay (3), Capture(4), Clean (1), Steal (2), Obtain (2). In order:

Hi AtionSong,

I like your thinking. As you say this thread is massive and it would take an enormous effort to read it entirely. That said over the months I have read every single post. (I've probably forgotten more than I remember by now Wink

) however I can remember that there used to be a website that you could use to enter in guesses for the key, it would respond by telling you whether the decrypted text resolved into text or anything else interesting.

I've lost the link for that website. Does anyone else have it handy? Unfortunately my attempts to search the forum for it haven't worked.

Also you'll notice on the frontpage of http://www.13thlabour.tk that there are two threads mentioned there. They split based on discussion around this brute force approach to solving the card versus other ideas/approaches.

All the best,
Mark

I think you are basically right Mindez except I think the client is looking to see that all the characters are printable, something like from Ascii 32 = space through to Ascii 126/127 = ~/DEL.

Cheers,
Mark

Hi,
I just found this project some days ago and decided to spend some CPU time here.
I'm used to other distributed computing projects (mostly through BOINC (Rosetta (finding proteins), Seti, etc): http://boinc.berkeley.edu/).
In comparison to the other projects I missed 2 things:

1: Labour13 runs with normal priority
2: Labour13 uses only 1 CPU core.

Many people own a dual core system today and they like it when they don't have to bother the always-running-process in the background (on low priority you can just let it on every time).

My solution:
1)
I wrote the following batch file; Labout13.bat:

And yes, there is a typo.
