I think this page is hoax ... just an attempt to gather a list of rails urls. looking at my logs I see no such request.

It's not a hoax - could you get in touch with us at support@tinfoilsecurity.com or http://www.tinfoilsecurity.com/chat ? I'd love to see what went wrong.
I think it can't deal with the traffic it's getting. I saw a couple of hits to my server and the page's progress bar moved a little, but it's been stalled for quite a while now.
Are you referring to the scan from our homepage or the Rails checker? Either way, could you get in touch with us at support@tinfoilsecurity.com or http://www.tinfoilsecurity.com/chat ? I'd love to see what went wrong.

We shouldn't be having issues with load.

I just did it and got this in my logs:

184.73.36.14/ec2-184-73-36-14.compute-1.amazonaws.com - - [02/Feb/2013:06:12:19 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 11310 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_6; en-us) AppleWebKit/533.19.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.0.3 Safari/5 Powered by Spider-Pig by tinfoilsecurity.com"

They're definitely hitting the URLs, I just think they have a backlog.
