I am making my vmtv pepsi bot, and I'm trying to figure out what code the browser sends to the vmtv servers after clicking submit in the signup page. I need some sort of activity monitor that can filter packets by IP so I can find the packet that has the html codes that are sent from the web browser to the vmtv server.
Help would be appreciated and if you want a pepsi bot in the next week or so, help is required

Mayber Tamper Data for firefox?

Edit: If you want a good packet sniffer try Wireshark.

That might be what you need.

Ok, I'm lazy to search anymore now so I've got a syntax question.
I'm going to use vb.net to code it, so I'd like to know:
what is the syntax to access other programs? I'm sure that one of the namespaces will allow that but I'm tired now so I'll leave it to you all to figure it out for me

if the code returned is in HTML, you can make the program receive it and then parse it nearly the same way you would parse XML, for example if the code is
<html>
<a/>
<randomtags>
<randomtag>
85858-48485-5857
</html>

you can make it parse the page to just grab the line after all the code above the actual pepsi code, which is the pepsi code, you can also make it save it to a file, or put it in a listbox or something like that, then once all the codes are collected put a button to save all the codes listed to a text file.

Nvm I just realized that your question is completely different, but this may still help for later

THe code is returned in the url of the new page. Just read the url of the page after it fully loads and go from there. Example: http://content.vmtv.com/cgi-bin/rede...?poid=ABCDEFGH
that page then redirects to: http://content.vmtv.com/pepsi2008/bo...ode=1234567890
Your code would be 1234567890.

Ok, by decompiling some similar programs, I have pretty much figured out all the namespaces that I will need to use.
I have about 5% of the bot completed now, these are the projected features and setbacks:
100% auto is it's one and only feature.
Setbacks:
Quite a few... the way I'm going to make it make accounts is by sendkeys, which isn't really a "silent" way to send keyboard events or so to speak. This means that this program cannot be clicked, moved, or anything during it's operation... better off running off a virtual machine or separate computer than the one you use.
Only reliable with higher delay, universal delay that delays everything the inputed delay(to make it impossible to go too fast unless 0 is put in, but it would just mess up at 0)
