== Content ==
The site contains a picture of a man with a cactus inserted inside his anus, with a small drop of semen coming out of his penis. The website embeds a [[Adobe Flash Player|Flash]] file called out.swf to open an endless amount of tabs and play an extremely loud version of the song "The Cadillac Theory" by [[wikipedia:Stupeflip|Stupeflip]].
 
The page utilizes a [[wikipedia:JavaScript|JavaScript]] function called caca to display an alert with the text CAACACAAA, which calls itself recursively. Another JavaScript function, full, attempts to put the browser into full-screen mode. It also uses [[wikipedia:CSS|CSS]] styling to make the cursor invisible.


The site contains a picture of a man with a cactus inside his anus, with a small amount of semen coming out of his penis, while an extremely loud version of the song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoqZZYIfspQ The Cadillac Theory] by Stupeflip plays in the background. The same .swf file that contains the audio also tries to trick the browser into opening pop-ups. A script in the source code of the site will also put the browser in full-screen mode and hide the cursor.
