If you're using Mozilla or a pop-up killer, you'll need to go to

hiddenalliance Hi there,
To preface I am brand spankin' new to this ARG thing.
I have taken a look at several ARGs but I want to get in
on one that's just starting.
That's why I'm most interested in HA!
Well, here's what I've come up with so far.
Just a bit of digging. Much of this is obvious I suppose...
<!-- Main Site & IP address -->
WWW.HIDDENALLIANCE.ORG
64.225.68.26
<!-- Intro Page & flash -->
/game_intro_x.html
/game_intro_x.swf
<!-- Known subdirectorie/s off main site -->
/assets/
<!-- Link found in "that way" (button5) just after gas-mask guy/gal (image7) -->
<!-- Nothing there yet, but it's the only active link in the flash..."The page cannot be found" -->

Domain servers in listed order:
A.NS.INTERLAND.NET 64.226.28.33
B.NS.INTERLAND.NET 66.111.73.173
C.NS.INTERLAND.NET 64.77.127.42
So, far I haven't found any clues as to when it will start, who is running it or anything else but that dead link is interesting.
Are people still musing about a James Bond tie-in??
Well, I guess I'm easily intrigued.
Take care all!

HA used to play Majestic. That's really all I can say....
Hopefully something will start soon but I'm not inside to know such things.

I've heard the rumor that some of the Hidden Alliance people worked on Majestic.

Tracing the address in the Whois, I discovered that the address belongs to Joe Zahaitis (65), a high-ranking tech-guy at a company that sells those phone cards you charge up, and Deb Zahaitis (33) who is probably his daughter but could in fact be his wife (don't even ask). Judging from the chat transcript, Joe qualifies for "older than dirt" and HiddenAlliance is obviously male so Joe is likely responsible for Hidden Alliance.
As far as I have been able to determine, none of them have anything to do with James Bond or Majestic though it is apparent that Joe likes a musician/singer named Arlo Guthrie and the now-defunct Majestic.

No doubt Joe has retired from PreNet and works from home.
The Intro:
HA logo: bottom left
A nightclub/bar
An actual aerial photo of Area 51 with "What are you looking for?" overlayed on top.
A WWII gas mask.
"that way" text in upper right corner (dead link embedded in flash)
"in the shadows": center screen
decrepit brick building: left screen
microscopic shot of some bio-organic substance
microscopic shot of branch-like/barbed-wire substance: right screen
3D man wearing hooded sweater/jacket with object (book/gun) in hand: left screen
"this way" : center screen
unknown street location with neon lights and a van on the right
I ended up breaking down the flash intro and found absolutely nothing else of use. All of the pictures used have generic names like "Bitmap #".
I tried variations on the dead link (like changing it to .html and .jpg) to no avail.
There's nothing in the source code of the launch page and I don't recognize the techno music that's playing.
re: HA's quote - "Shorter of breath and one day closer to death".
So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking,
Racing around to come up behind you again.
The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death...
Pink Floyd, "Time" - Dark Side of the Moon
If there's a game here, I don't think its ready for primetime yet.
