>> Tuesday, October 27, 2009
Our friends at Sprint are trying everything they can think of to hold on to what customers that they have.

Now we have Sprint trying to incorporate those same features into the Blackberry Curve 8350i. But is a construction worker looking for a push to talk blackberry? Hard to say. {.......}
How to Unblock Websites Where these are Blocked?
Everyone is trying to unblock websites like Myspace.com or Facebook.com since so many jobs are blocking those sites. Unfortunately you will find that most jobs and schools will block the latest sites that prevent censorship. One website has begun to use a new method for unblocking websites by hosting a decentralized network that allows multiple people to host nodes that others can use as proxies from inside of their browsers and then get around the censorship that your school or job might be forcing on you. {.......}How to Revenue Sharing Hack To Display Different Authers Ads ?

How to Increase the speed of your internet connection ?
>> Tuesday, October 20, 2009
As more and more people get quick connections to the internet, such as cable or ADSL, it becomes apparent to the user of a simple dial-up modem that the World Wide Web can quickly turn into the World Wide Wait. Here a trick that can help speed up your current modem without shelling out the big bucks.
There is a setting located in your windows registry called the Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU). This determines the size of the packets of data sent between your and your server. In Windows 95, this setting is has a value of 1,500 bytes when the actual size of internet packets is 1,000 bytes. This can sometimes slow things down. To remedy the situation, simply follow these steps:

How to Get Back Folder Missing Options

Open Run and then type "gpedit.msc".
Now goto User Configuration > Administrative templates > Windows Component > Windows Explorer.
Click on Windows Explorer you will find the 3rd option on the right side of screen "Removes the Folder Option menu item from the Tools menu"
Just check it, if it is not configured then change it to enable by double clicking on it and after applying again set it to not configured.

How to Unlock iphone on version
Apple’s iPhone is the latest craze in town due to its sophisticated features and Internet connectivity. It’s an all-in-one package that includes voice, text, wireless Internet, and iPod features. Who wouldn’t want to own a gadget like that? I certainly would love to have it! The catch though is that you’ll need to get it bundled with AT&T’s mobile plans. That means even if your phone provider is another company, you’ll need to have it connected to AT&T if you want to maximize the product’s features. The AT&T mobile plans are not bad because the user gets to have all phone services while having free Internet access for a certain amount of monthly subscription. The only thing with AT&T is that its services are quite expensive and some people have complained about bad customer service. {.......}How to Hack window Genuine?

Why we meet with a lot of viruses?
>> Sunday, October 11, 2009
It is interesting, with all the training and knowledge necessary in becoming an IT professional, the number one question I receive is; "Why do people make viruses?" This always makes me wonder if FBI profilers are ever asked; "Why does my computer have so many pop-up ads?" And of course, computer people often ask each other: "Why do people think they need more memory with their hard drive is full? And why do they call their computer case a modem?" These are all important questions, but only one of them I am qualified to answer. I still try to answer the other to the best of my knowledge. Unfortunately, the best of my knowledge is very, very, unpleasant. {.......}Get Installed VMware Server 2 On An Ubuntu 8.04 Desktop

What are the Best Tools for Virus Removal
As a network administrator, helpdesk tech, or other computer professional, you don't remove that many viruses. Most company networks are secure enough that viruses are not really an issue. The issue is when friends, family and people from work get viruses in their home computers. There are so many request for virus removal that it is easy to be desensitized. I am as guilty as anyone when someone asks for help and I tell them they should take their computer to the Geek Squad, or Nerd Herd. There are literary thousands of viruses, and unless you are a professional virus expert it is impossible to keep up with all the removals. So, listed below are some popular virus removal tools and programs.
Some viruses are so specialized that you must first discover the virus you have before you can remove it. There are many no-cost online virus checkers. Listed here are but a few to help isolated the infection: {.......}

What Hackers Want?
With so much unemployment, especially in the IT community it is no wonder you can find, Hired Hackers online. Panda Security highlights just an example; Facebook hacking. For $100 you can hack into any account you wish. These hackers do not guarantee 100% success, but my guess is they are pretty accurate. I haven’t test this hacker group’s claim, and it is very possible that they are a $100 rip-off, but my instincts tell me they can, and they do. This type of hacking makes me wonder if these are unemployed IT people, or foreign criminals. Although, I’m sure unemployment creates opportunist in any country. And frankly speaking, if I were a talented, out of work computer professional with a family to feed, computer ethics would be something for the employed. Of course I’m not condoning illegal acts of computer hacking, I’m just saying. {.......}A Brief Descriptoin about Scapy
Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation program. It is able to forge or decode packets of a wide number of protocols, send them on the wire, capture them, match requests and replies, and much more. It can easily handle most classical tasks like scanning, tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks or network discovery (it can replace hping, 85% of nmap, arpspoof, arp-sk, arping, tcpdump, tethereal, p0f, etc.). It also performs very well at a lot of other specific tasks that most other tools can’t handle, like sending invalid frames, injecting your own 802.11 frames, combining technics (VLAN hopping+ARP cache poisoning, VOIP decoding on WEP encrypted channel, …), etc.
What makes Scapy different from most other networking tools
First, with most other tools, you won’t build someting the author did not imagine. These tools have been built for a specific goal and can’t deviate much from it. For example, an ARP cache poisoning program won’t let you use double 802.1q encapsulation. Or try to find a program that can send, say, an ICMP packet with padding (I said padding, not payload, see?). In fact, each time you have a new need, you have to build a new tool. {......}

How to Activate Microsoft Office 2007 Trial version
>> Friday, October 09, 2009
Most suites or programs of Microsoft Office 2007 allows user to evaluate the product. The trial version of 2007 Microsoft Office system can be installed by using a 25-character trial product key available from Microsoft while you download the free Office software, and you can use the Microsoft Office 2007 suite or program with full functionality for 60 days.
You may have the Office 2007 CD and are able to install Office 2007 without entering product key. However, Office 2007 will work in reduced functionality mode, where it’s effectively just a viewer for office documents. Beside, if you forget the trial product key, or don’t wish to register a Windows Live ID to get the trial key, here’s the trick to activate Office 2007, or more correctly, bypass the activation of Office 2007 60 days trial, and making the “trial” word disappear from the Office title at the top and suppress activation and trial expiry prompt.

New features of Blackberry! Recover deleted messages
>> Monday, October 05, 2009
We sometimes find ourselves doing things automatically only to find out later that what we have done is a mistake! At the very least, this is an inconvenience. This could apply to almost anything, especially when a person is multi-tasking. An instance where this could happen is when you’re talking to someone while checking your Blackberry for messages. If you’re deleting a previous message, you could accidentally do the same to a new one thinking that it is old. It wouldn’t matter if the email or text is unimportant. But what if it is a message from your boss or business associate? What will you do? Can you recover the message from somewhere just like in Yahoo or Google mail?
The big and sad answer is that no, the message is forever lost if your phone has not been set up to store deleted messages in a designated location. That means, once these messages are purged from your smart phone and you have not been able to setup some sort of a backup plan, it will be very unlikely that you could recover them or even from the network provider.

Hacking Tool ! Botnet
Ever wonder how hackers are able to do all the stuff they do? Many expert hackers do not just log on to systems using manual processes. They get help from robots. Yes, that’s right – robots. Not your typical idea of a robot though but something that is called as such because they work autonomously and automatically.Botnet, also known as robotic network, is a group of computers that run the same computer robotic application controlled or manipulated by human operators. They are also called as botmasters for the purpose of doing co-related tasks. The system is organized in a simple hierarchical structure comprised of many computers, also called as drones or zombies, and a command center that controls all of the drones or zombies into action. Botnets can be large (composed of ten to twenty thousand drones) or small (composed of five hundred to a thousand drones). It really depends on the sophistication and complexity of its use.
Botnets are very good tools in the hacking world because of their ability to gain other computers that could be used for any purpose. If you are familiar with the security vulnerabilities of a network, its workstations and servers, you can wrest control all of its computers in a matter of days, hours or even minutes with the aid of a very sophisticated botnet application. Once control is obtained, the task can be done remotely or autonomously.

Microsoft confirms IIS zero-day flaw; Exploit code published
>> Tuesday, September 08, 2009
Microsoft late Tuesday confirmed the publication of exploit code for a serious code execution vulnerability in the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) Service in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0, 5.1, and 6.0.
A security advisory from Redmond warned that the vulnerability could allow remote code execution on affected systems running the FTP service and connected to the Internet.
“While we have seen detailed exploit code published on the Internet for this vulnerability, we are not currently aware of active attacks that use this exploit code,” a Microsoft spokesman said in an e-mail.
From Microsoft’s advisory:
An attacker with write access in the FTP service could use this vulnerability to cause a stack-based overrun and execute arbitrary code in the context of the local system.In configurations of IIS where the anonymous user has write access, the attacker need not be authenticated.
The Microsoft Security Research & Defense blog offers more details:
The vulnerability is a stack overflow in the FTP service when listing a long, specially-crafted directory name. To be vulnerable, an FTP server would need to grant untrusted users access to log into and create that long, specially-drafted directory. If an attacker were able to successfully exploit this vulnerability, they could execute code in the context of LocalSystem, the service under which the FTP service runs.
Configurations at risk
The vulnerable code is in IIS 5.0 (Windows 2000), IIS 5.1 (Windows XP) and IIS 6.0 (Windows Server 2003). IIS 7.0 (Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008) is not vulnerable. IIS 6 is at reduced risk because it was built with /GS which help protect the service from exploits by deliberately terminating itself when the overflow is detected before attacker’s code runs. We have not seen exploit code for this vulnerability that is able to bypass the /GS protection.
Also, remember that only servers that allow untrusted users to log on and create arbitrary directories are vulnerable.
In the absence of a patch, Microsoft recommends that administrators prevent untrusted users from having write access to the FTP service. The advisory contains instructions to:
Turn off the FTP service if you do not need it
Prevent creation of new directories using NTFS ACLs
Prevent anonymous users from writing via IIS settings

1337 speak
While there are sophisticated encrypting programs, there are also those that are used by almost anyone provided that the users know what symbols are being used. Geeks and even non-geeks can hide messages using substitutes for the English alphabet. This symbolic writing is known in technical communities as leet speak or 1337.1337 is a cryptic writing language used to shorten the typed messages or as a form of encryption to hide the nature or meaning of the message sent. The term “leet” refers to those with elite status in message boards in the 1980s. It actually originated from 31330 “eleet,” which is the UDP port that the hacker group Dead Cow Cult used to hack Windows 95. The language really is not owned by any specific group. Anyone can use and write “leet” and anyone can have or use its own ciphers to decode it.
The way to use it is by substituting alphanumeric characters or symbols to each character or words from any common communication language such as English. The language can also be developed to include intentional phonetic spelling, new words or even misspellings. Traditionally, the primary strategy is using homoglyphs – symbols that closely resemble the letter for which they stand or an Argot also referred to as a “secret language” for obscurity. It is ever changing but it really has no borders, rules or barriers on what encoding you could use, only that there should be an agreement or a set of protocols for the group to use.
In the past, gamers used leet speak as a communications tool. Currently, anyone could be using leet speak. Chatting teens and young adults who often logon to the Internet are often using this method.
Generally for starters, you could actually use the example below for a quick and simple “leet” letter substitution. It is the most common and traditional cipher used for “leet speak.” You can also find some advanced ones in the Internet, or just make up one for your group.

This can explain how “leet” or “elite” came to be written as “1337” (1=L, 3=E and 7=T).
Some simple vocabularies:
n00b – Short for noobie, misspelling of newbie.
0wn3d you ! – Short for I’ve beaten you, probably the most common leet in gaming.
Where did it come from?
In the early 1980’s a group of chatters/gamers devised a way that will not allow their newsgroups from being indexed by the “Bulletin Board System” Chat operators. Others are also using this method to prevent their websites from being picked up by a simple keyword search by replacing certain characters with number on their domain names.
The purpose of leet was to prevent others from discovering coordinated battle strategies or banning or discouraging them from discussing forbidden topics such as cracking, hacking and other forms of pornography.
It became popular as a communications lingo when Id software in 1994 began adding Internet connectivity to a game called Doom 1 and 2.
How does it relate to hacking?
How does it relate to hacking?
It cannot be considered as one of the primary tools for hacking but it can be useful for ciphering your electronic communications, most especially if you are planning a coordinated hack group strike in an area or facility. However, there are traditional ciphering tools in the market that can be used to encrypt and decrypt sent messages to prevent eavesdropping. The leet speaks serves as a second wave of encryption to keep the message from being decoded.
How is it looked upon in the hacking world today?
Real hackers would look at leet as amateurish in nature. When those wannabe-hackers caught on the language, they started using it thinking that they would become real hackers just by doing so. They forgot that hacking requires real knowledge and skills. Right now, hackers openly mock kids who use 1337 just to appear (,00£.
USB flash drive portable browsers
Have you ever been some place other than your home on your computer? If your answer is anything other then yes, you need to stop being a computer hugging hippy and go outside, get a whif of some fresh air, step on some dog crap and accidently run over a cat. It’ll do you some good. Anyways, have you visited someone somewhere and while using his/her/its computer, you realized you didn’t know a password because it was saved on your browser, or you wanted to show your friend that one cool website with the non-Asian ninjas, but it was in your bookmarks, or you wanted to use an extension you had installed on your browser that got rid of homosexual ads? Well you can. It’s called portable browsers, a.k.a a browser on your USB drive.If you use Mozilla Firefox, which I highly recommend, you can download the portable browser hiya: I’m a link.
If you’re an apple fanboy or just like safari, you can download it’s portable version hiya: I’m a link too.
If you use Internet Explorer, you must have some sort of brain blockage and need to fall off a cliff.
Some great features of these portable browsers are:
- you can take your bookmarks with you
- although probably not a good idea, for those of you that happen to always kill the braincells holding your passwords, you can take the saved one’s with you
- take all your extensions with you
- keeps your information stored on the flash drive instead of the computer you are using
