Interesting. Is that in the contract? Otherwise they'd be breaking the
law - unauthorised use of computer resources (i.e. causing your
competer to respond to all sorts of ports that you don't want them to

I know the AFP has threatened people with this law for port scanning - it'd
be interesting to see how far you could go.
