Level 10 The only way to get level ten without any clues is to brute force it or get lucky so if you need a hint PM me.

now, for level ten. he wants a cookie, and he's boring. that doesn't make sense. i tried "chocolate chip", but nothing...
EDIT: "Cookie monster" doesn't work, natas. i wonder why "virus" is in the source code. could "cookie" be refering to the computer type of cookie?

"Cookie monster

one of the earliest known prank viruses, the first known version of this application was first deployed on Multics systems in the early 70's.
networking was rather primitive, so the virus spread between systems mainly through "sneakernet", leading to some debate as to whether whimsical humans with admin privileges can be considered a valid infection vector (i vote yes, as any effective infection vector is, by empirical demonstration, a successful propagation method).
the program would be triggered by a timer, much like a cron job, but without the easy log tracking. when it woke up, the cookie monster would stop whatever the user was doing, and ask for a cookie. once the user gave up fighting it and typed "cookie", the virus would go back to sleep until the next timer event, and the user was returned to the original process.
ah, the early days..."
this looks promising!
