if you had error checking after netStream := net.openurlconnection you would realize that net.openurlconnection is failing, thus returning a value of -10.

why is it failing though that is my question.

actually i'm not a turing champion so i can't tell you how to fix this, also i think my turing is gay or something because whenever i use "google.ca" it crashes turing completely. Anyone know why my turing would do this? its version 4.03

few possible reasons.. firewall is blocking the request for packets from the url. the url is non-existent. turing is gay.

i tried turning off all the firewalls so that is not the issue...

That's some program you have there... You shouldn't even be thinking about using the NET module if your program has so many if and for statements. Dang, there is something called "elsif". And your for loops... The horrid structure of your program looks like the cause of your problem. I have never seen more than 6 or so nested 'levels' of a program, at least this size. Look at some of the other examples in the forum for a better idea. I'm sorry I can't be of more help, but your code is hard to debug.

yeah, i meant to say something about that also. You're code is 100% flawed. I mean, if you want help you have to conform to the standard so that it is possible for people to help you. If your a genious you can code however you want, and never ask for help.

The idea is flawed flawed flawed Because a) that's 62^8 combinations you're trying to go through and b) passwords are taken from POST, but you're trying to feed them through GET. Your bruteforce will not work.

it depends which website you are bruting though. Some, (insecure) will use GET. Since its a turing project, its best to nail down the logic at least aside from all the technical stuff.. but this program doesn't even have the logic

my teacher is to much of an iddiot to teach us how to properly code so don't make me feel like such an iddiot. atleast im trying

Then learn from the [Turing Tutorials] section, especially following the order of the [Turing Walkthrough].

It's amazing how many people blame the language (usually Turing) when their code is incorrect. It might help to blame some other unrelated pieces of hardware as well. Give your monitor a good smack when you get errors. That'll set the dumb screen straight for not running things properly.

Hehe. It helps if people understand that Turing is a sort of basic programming language, not a program. In a program you can almost always blame the software, in a programming langauge more often than not it is you who are making the mistake.

But turing does have several "bugs."

Not that I can spell, but It's still funny.
