Decrypting Ping-o-Matic Result
As you see after pinging to Ping-o-Matic, the service give a string which is almost unreadable at all. Below is a sample taken when pinged this site.
qbznva-va-qo | uggc://jjj.ubjsbetr.pbz/ || hfrentrag-ecp | Zbmvyyn/4.0 (pbzcngvoyr; ZFVR 5.0)
It seems to be readable with just a few decryption something like Caesar Cipher. I found that the exact cipher technique being used here is ROT13. The lookup table is just like below.
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz NOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLMnopqrstuvwxyzabcdefghijklm
After applying ROT13, the plaintext is as follow.
domain-in-db | https://howforge.com/ || useragent-rpc | Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0)
I implemented this decryption in Ping-o-Matic Module right now.
