Signups are open! (yay etc!)
You can go here to go to the challenge page via the spiffy intro animation (27kb flash) or you can skip the animation and go directly to the challenge page
For those of you not familiar with the downlink challenge, let me give you a little background information. A while back, Zaptan, einstein adn myself decided that downlink ran a challenge... erm, that's it
Edit: A little more about the challenge
Basically, the DC is a HUGE contest designed to test your hacking skills, both in real life and in uplink, your general intelligence, lateral thinking and hand-eye co-ordination. It will involve uplink, the internet and another game (the title of which is classified information right now)
-hope this helps-
Something you might find more interesting are the prizes: We're not revealing what they are yet, although suffice to say that there are unique items of introversion and uplink memorabilia, plus some PC hardware for the runner-ups.
Sign up now! You'll recieve an email at a later date regarding the first round, the Qualifier!
Good luck!
BTW: If you have any questions, or enquiries about the Downlink Challenge, you can contact me (MegaDeth) or Zaptan in #downlink on irc.uplinkcorp.net or by email: rich@madhouse.biz - you can also post on the Downlink Forums should you feel the need

Ein: thanks, you're a life saver. I'm working on it right now, though it takes time for my host to set anything up. The code you sent me should do very nicely for the time being.
TechnoGoth: The challenge will be starting in about 2-3 weeks, although if signups are still going strong by then, I will extend the signup period. If that is the case, then I will make a further announcement on the forums and on irc. As for the challenge itself, there is more information here on the Downlink Forum. We can't give away *too* much information, as is the nature of the Challenge, but you should get a good idea from there. Furthermore, all you will need for this challenge is a registered and patched (1.31) version of uplink, an internet connection, email account and a brain
Icepick: taken into account, i'll try and do that soon
Starfyre: yep, though don't get TOO excited, it's intended more as a booby prize for the last-place winners, and yes, anyone can enter the challenge. Postage will be paid for by us should the winer be overseas (prizes are in London right now)
Any questions, come to #downlink on irc.uplinkcorp.net or post on the downlink forums.
