I'm not sure what you're asking here...do you mean the WHOIS registration information for a site?

Well that's pretty unlikely unless the site's server is poorly configured.

If there is a "public" directory, I'm guessing there will be a link or a puzzle connected with it. Anything else is hands off.

There is a "public directory" when there is no index-file specified, and if the server does not forbid you to view directory listings.

I wouldn't say they're hands off Steff. We use them enough to discover if there are any other files in image directories that were left open.
