Using Fishing to Extract Information From a Web Site

I thought what they were going to be talking about is somebody just takscripting and saying, right now, do one, two, three, four, five. But that's not what they were saying. Theirs was actually way more interesting. So the whole notion here is they're still trying to extract information from a web site. The one that they did is doing failed log s on a log in form. They'd enter in a user name, let's say, allan, and go to log in. And if that took 3 or 4 seconds, then they knew that they had a valid user name. A longer feedback cycle meant that you actually hit a real account.
