Firesheep

Firesheep, Force-TLS, KB SSl Enforcer. I am playing* with them. Which is to say, installed TLS and KB, still trying to get Firesheep to run on ubuntu. Might boot into windows soon so I can play with them there.

Further on the topic of packet capture... my main interest is security (whitehat), and I like playing with the toys. I hope to make my own toys someday- maybe even someday soon.

Thought- how does firesheep deal with login via openid?

*And by playing I mean playing. I won't damage anyone's anything with this; I won't use someone's data for nefarious purposes. Yadda yadda.
