Hire a hacker?

I am about to go public with a blog script written in asp.net. Being as how most popular blog scripts are php. I target the professional audience. So security would be the best card to play. So I am nearing the final stages and want to hire a hacker to test it for me in the near future. I'm not looking for "the ultimate test" I just want someone to attempt it so I can say it passed. If it doesn't then I'll work on it till it does.

I'm thinking 100$ for 2 or 3 hours of work. Post if your intrested. I'll revive the thread when it is ready.

How you want a hacker(you mean cracker i think) to test your script. Are you going to show him the script or are you going to host the script on a server and ask the hacker to break it.
If it's the latter case be sure to prove that it's your own server!

I want the script its self tested and not the server. I can put it on my own server though if you think my hosting will try to get you arrested.

If you sign an agreement to let me try and take down the script, i'll security test it for $75 (price negotiable). Use my contact info in my public profile.

Or you can post your script here and ask for a security review and someone may be interested to look into it and post the flaws/holes in it.

edit: may be it's against the rules, but rules do mention that you can discuss hacking from a constructive viewpoint.

Sorry, but It will take loner than I origionally though. I want to add some more stuff to make it user friendly. The more I allow people to customise the easier it will be to destroy. So It will talk about 2 or 3 weeks longer than what I origionally though.

Let the seller beware. The follow-through rep is hardly stellar.
