Author $50 prize for the first person to break my code

Note: This contest is limited to Java code and testing frameworks only

<a href=http://www.flosoft-systems.com>aMock</a> is my company's mock
object solution. We have tested it against every testing framework we
can get our hands on and it works like a champ. The final phase (and
to be honest the first phase of marketing) is to offer $50 to the
first person that can find a testing framework (including yet to be
released/home made ones) that breaks it (crash, incorrect results and/
or any other undocumented behavior). The only limitation on the
testing framework is it may not use reflection to make any run-time
modifications to code under test (aMock does this and the framework
doing it would be mutual bad in all likely hood).

If you need an extension on the 30-day trial period to do this send me
a note and I will mark that in our records (the trial is 100%
functional, including source code, and has no time triggered
gotcha's). Now for the pure marketing part of this post if your also
in the market for a good ultra lightweight testing frame work you may
find our thisTest to be just the right thing.

You have not done the most important test.... Cross Browser
compatibility, how can you release it in the market. I am a frequent
firefox and Opera user, i hardly use IE, unless some restrictions are
laid, and your site is a slip here. And if you are willing to pay $50,
please specify the known issues too to the public.

One more error, on IE ofcourse, every page like, Home(index.php) or
Community (community.php) shows first Forbidden page error (Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /index.php on this server.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to
use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

and then on returning back to the page, displays the page.

Thanks

That is not a cross browser issue; my hosting company is the middle of
an upgrade (no advance warning from them thus I posted this)... it
comes and goes (about every 5 to 10 secs it seems to change state)...
the assure me it should be done by tomorrow night
