Asus which is well known for their motherboards seems to be branching out into different computer peripherals now.

Hot on the heels of the launch of their sound-card the Xonar D2; they have now announced WL-130N Super Speed N Wireless PCI Adapter. This network card is aimed at the desktop market and features full support for the new 802.11n draft 2.0 specifications. It also makes use of MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) technology to provide faster than 100 Mbps wired speeds and is fully compatible with legacy 802.11b and 802.11g standards.

Price and availability of this product is unknown as of right now.

Recent advances in technology allow the compression of enormous amounts of data into tiny packages, and the Cowon iAudio7 is testimony to the fact. Yes, here's a robust little player with a lot of storage space.

But does the iAudio7 provide you all that you desire from an MP3 / PMP / data storage device? That’s what I decided to find out.

Form Factor
Don’t let the pictures fool you. (They did fool me, by the way.) When I first saw the iAudio7 I was under the impression that it was a PMP, since it played movie files. So naturally, my first impression was that it would have a decently large screen.

Of course, when I read the specs I realized that wasn't so. The iAudio7 has only a small 1.3 inch screen with a resolution of 160x128 pixels sporting 256k colors. While clear enough, this is not good enough to watch movies – you’ll need a magnifying glass. Honestly, I’m not sure why they even included the feature.

The iAudio7 is extremely lightweight at just 60 grams. It’s also small enough with dimensions of 35.6 x 76.1 x 19 mm, so you carry it around quite easily. It has a 3.5mm earphone socket, so you can use your own earphones (not that you’ll need to). Alongside is a Line-In socket.

On the top are the mic, hold/slider for power, a menu key, and the volume keys. On the right is a flap that hides the USB port and reset key. The iAudio7 may look like a pudgy little player but it’s actually quite sleek, lightweight, and easy to use.

Features
The player is a compact bundle of audio, video, radio, and recording. Packed with options to record from the integrated FM radio or through the built-in mic, the device can be used as a dictaphone as well. There are plenty of settings to please music connoisseurs as well.

EQ presets and a customizable 5-band graphic EQ are evident, as also 3D Surround, Mac 3 Bass options, panning and even an MP3 Enhance mode that really does enhance the sound quality.

After the apple’s new iMac, now its Sony’s turn. Like iMac everything is embedded in the monitor itself and the monitor can be wall mounted. Sony also integrates Blue-Ray burner as a standard equipment. Also comes with external digital cable tuner. Coming to technical Specs…

The whole box is powered by Intel Core 2 Duo with 2.2 Ghz, 2GB DDR2, 500GB SATA Hard Disk, Nvidia GeForce 8400 GT graphics chip with 256 MB of dedicated video memory, NTSC TV Tuner and a 22 inch Widescreen LCD that can display resolutions up to 1680×1050.

Also features 3 watt stereo with a 5 watt subwoofer and a webcam with 1.3 MP.

It comes with a price tag of $1899 for a low end model.

Sony unveiled a new concept PC during KES 2007 show. Its just like apple iMac and another Sony model VAIO LT19U , but its looking cool than the others. Like the other models, this one here too have components embedded on the backside of the screen. It has high performance speakers on both sides of the screen.

The screen is designed as such that users can listen to music even if the monitor is turned off. Keyboard can be folded and there is a touch pad on the edges of the screen which has got all the important controls.

Price: 1 000 000 South Korean won = 1 090 U.S. dollars.

The PC will be up for sale in November in the Korean market.

Sony has given the PlayStation Portable a makeover. The new PSP is slimmer and lighter and the built-in memory is increased 64 MB, which results in a faster-loading display. All the other features are same and price also remains the same.

The trend of online file sharing is not new to many of the users out there but the trend of using web applications powered by Adobe Air definitely gives a new experience to many of the users. Adobe Share Beta is a great online web application which brings the trend of online file sharing to life again but in a more innovative way using the power of Adobe Air technology.

Adobe Share Beta is exactly like one of those online file sharing services that most of you use daily except that it redefines this concept by allowing you to upload and share files using an online web application rather than a HTML Form. The online web application is powered by Adobe Air and takes a second to load.

There is also an option to batch upload multiple files at once in one go. Share your files with your friends and family or send files directly to their email along with a personalized message. You can even choose the access level for your shared files.

My Library will keep a track of all of the files that you have shared or uploaded. You can even search for specific files if you have lot of useless bunch of files. Files have a unique URL and Embded Code which can be used to share files on blogs or social networks.

Adobe Share Beta Forums is a good place to learn more about Share Beta

What is Ad Killing?
If you've been using the Internet for some time, you should be aware of those annoying commercials Popups(3), commercial banner ads, unsolicited commercial mail (spam) etc'. There are simple and difficult ways to kill those, according to the sophistication level of the advertiser.
Okay, so popups are annoying, but why would I want to kill regular banner ads which just appear within a page? Well, you have to download those things, right? Some ads could be 3Ks big, some could be 20Ks big. The point is - they chew up bandwidth.
Okay, so a banner ad could be 7Ks big... so what? Well, suppose your computer is a part of a Local Area Network (LAN, a bunch of computers who are located very near to each other (same room, same building etc') and are connected to each other so they can exchange files throught the fast network cable, share resources etc'). The LAN has one connection to the Internet which is enough for 10 people (say, 100Ks per second, so each user gets about 10Ks per second). Now, imagine that 5 of the 10 people are browsing the web, and each one is downloading a 7Ks big banner ad. That means you lose 35Ks per second. Now what if those people won't have to download those ads? And what if the problem would be on a bit larger scale... like a 10Ks banner, or a bigger network, or more users downloading ads etc'. See my point?
Now, I myself do not recommend killing banner ads, because some might turn out to be useful (for example: an ad about a store that sells a new A-class state-of-the-art computer for a very cheap price with no catches). Popups, on the other hand, are annoying and in my experience they never yield any useful pieces of information, so I recommend killing those. But it's still worth knowing (if you're a sysadmin and you don't want any stupid ads to chew up your bandwidth(4))

Get To Work

Killing Banner Ad's
First make a list of computers that host banner ads programs. Suppose you decide that www.foobar.com is an ad haven. Next thing you add this line to the hosts(1) file:
127.0.0.1 www.foobar.com
Now, whenever any Internet application will try to access something from www.ads-r-us.com it will try the equivelant on 127.0.0.1. For example: http://www.ads-r-us.com/stupid-banner-ad.gif = http://127.0.0.1/stupid-banner-ad.gif.
Whether you have a picture called stupid-banner-ad.gif on your computer, it will not chew up any bandwidth because 127.0.0.1 means self (as in me, as in my own computer. For example: try to hack 127.0.0.1 and you'll realize that this host is suspiciously similar to your own computer... hmm... maybe they hacked your computer and downloaded everything... lol).

There is a way to work around this, though. If you put the advertiser's IP address instead of his hostname in the part of the html code on your website that tells the browser to download the ad, it will go directly to that IP (for example: if www.ads-r-us.com's IP is 123.7.14.139 then putting 123.7.14.139/stupid-banner-ad.gif instead of www.ads-r-us.com/stupid-banner-ad.gif will work around our trick). If you know of any better tricks please let me know at barakirs@netvision.net.il.

Killing Banner Ads from Free ISPs
There are some Internet Service Providers that give you free surfing (phone bills not included in most cases) in exchange for you using a stupid program that displays banner ads on the corner of your screen while you surf. These ads are not only annoying, but they also chew up your bandwidth(4). If you want to completely remove those things you need to find some sort of a crack for it. I'm not going to tell you how to crack every free ISP in the world, but I am going to tell you how to block those ads.
First, go find a good firewall (try http://www.theargon.com, they have some). Then, run it and wait for a new banner ad to come from your ISP. Then the firewall will warn you about the incoming connection. You can either tell your computer to ignore these things manually, or configure a rules file for your firewall that will do so (consult your firewall's help files).

Killing Popups
There are programs that do this for you. They look for some special text in the title bar of the popup (for example: killing all popups with the text "Welcome to a Geocities Member Page" in their title will kill those annoying Geocities popups) or kill the popup by the size of the window (or both). Although I've been searching for a good one for a long time now, I still havn't found one that is good enough. Surf In Peace is pretty good, though. Go to www.download.com, www.cnet.com or www.zdnet.com for more information and programs.

Killing Spam
Yes, spam. Unsolicited commercial mail. Again, to kill those, you need programs called Spam Filters. Go to www.tucows.com and find the Anti-Spam category. There you will find lots of Spam Killing programs.
Basically, what spam filters do is to decide if an incoming message is spam or not by it's subect line and the body of the message. If they do find spam, they will delete it immedietly.
If those won't work, call your ISP and tell them to block all incoming mail from the spammers' Email addresses.

Note: some ISPs have began implementing gigantic and ultra advanced spam filters on their mail servers. These are supposed to stop 90%-95% of incoming spam. These ISPs include Earthlink, Netscape and Usa.net.

Oh, btw, here's an interesting piece of information. A research called "Who Spams You" has been conducted lately. Here are the results:
First place: "get rich quick" scams.
Second place: adult websites.
Third place: website promos.
Fourth place: other.
Fifth place: software promos.

Newbies Corner
1. What is the /etc/hosts or the c:windowshosts File? - most OSs (OS=Operating System) I know have a hosts file. UNIX usually stores it at /etc/hosts, Windows stores it at c:windowshosts and Windows NT stores it at c:WinNTsystem32driversetchosts (thanks to Teolicy for the WinNT tip). The hosts file is used instead of wasting time to do a DNS Lookup(2). I mean, why waste time on DNS Lookup when you already know the IP but you just don't feel like typing it down and you'd rather remember the hostname.
The hosts file should look like this:
# This is a comment line.
# Anything beginning with # will be disregarded by your computer.
# You don't have to put comment lines if you don't want to, but they make reading easier.
IP-address hostname

For example: on most hosts files you will see this line:
127.0.0.1 localhost
Anything directed to 127.0.0.1 is directed to self, meaning to your own computer.
This hosts file entry allows you to type localhost instead of 127.0.0.1 in browser windows or any other network application.

Note: some OSs do DNS Lookup first, and then, if DNS Lookup fails they go for the hosts file, but you can always reconfigure that somewhere (take MacOS for example: all you have to do is to put the line set use_hosts_first=1 somewhere in the config.sys file).

2. What is DNS Lookup / Reverse DNS Lookup? - the command nslookup hostname (Unix only. For a Windows version see http://www.samspade.org) gives you the IP address of that hostname.
How does it work?
Every computer which is connected to the Internet is assigned with an IP address, whether it accepts connections or not. If you want to connect to that certain computer, you have to know it's IP address, whether you like it or not. But what if you're senile and you don't feel like remembering IP addresses? This is what hostnames are for. Hostnames are simple names for IP addresses in the human language. For example: if you wanna surf over to Yahoo and you don't remember their IP address or you don't feel like finding it out, you can go to www.yahoo.com instead. www.yahoo.com is an alias to Yahoo's IP.
Now, this is what DNS is for. DNS stands for a Domain Name Server. These servers store those aliases and their IPs.
A DNS Lookup means to find the IP of a given hostname. A reverse DNS Lookup is to do the exact opposite (IP==>hostname).
For more info, type man nslookup on Unix for nslookup's manual page or go to Sam Spade's library (see http://www.samspade.org).
Nslookup is a wonderful probing tool, and in fact it's one of the best ways to find out information about a certain host, so go and learn it.

3. Popup - another browser window that "pops up" by itself. Try going to any Geocities homepage and you'll see a good example of a popup window, because Geocities insert these things in every homepage hosted by them (except GeoPlus members, but they pay for that... Sad ).

4. Bandwidth - the total speed a certain connection can achieve. Chewing up bandwidth means wasting some of the bandwidth, hence making surfing slower.

Appendix A: junkbusters.com
Here's an Email I got from someone called James Slater:

Hi there, I just read your tutorial, and thought you might like to make some mention of 'The Internet Junkbuster' (http://www.junkbusters.com/). It's a proxy server that you can install on your Win9x/Un*x system that can be configured to block unwanted cookies, adverts etc. depending on a set of rules. You might think it's a bit out of the scope of the tutorial, but I thought I'd suggest it.

Well, there you have it. Junkbusters.com. C'mon, go give it a whirl!

Appendix B: blocking ads
I was told by a friend who wishes to stay anonymous that you can use the following command:
route add -host [spam server] reject
(replace 'spam server' with the IP or hostname of the server that has these banners on it. For example: if the banners come from banners-r-us.com, replace 'spam server' with banners-r-us.com)
This command orders the Linux kernel (no, it won't work on Windows. That's one of the things I hate about Windows - it's not sophisticated enough for me... lol) reject anything coming from this IP.
This does the same as that thing I did with /etc/hosts, but... I dunno, it's a little nicer... Wink

When you think of dial-up Internet service, the first thing that probably comes to mind is the strange sort of "R2-D2 in a blender" type chirping that the modem makes as it connects. This song is called the handshake protocol, and it is the first thing that bogs down the speed of dial-up Internet.



The handshake protocol, as the name implies, begins the conversation that allows data to be sent to and from your computer using the Internet. There are actually two separate handshakes that occur in this process. The first half is the modem initializing the Internet connection. We'll call that the modem handshake. The second part is the software handshake. That deals with authenticating the user's access to the ISP (Internet Service Provider). When your computer is chirping away, it is introducing itself to your ISP. High-speed dial-up providers can't do anything about the modem handshake, but they can speed up the software handshake. The standard software handshake goes something like this:


Your machine: Hello, my name is Sparky.
ISP Server: Hello, Sparky.
Your machine: I am John's computer.
ISP Server: John who?
Your machine: John Smith.
ISP Server: I know 32,422 John Smiths.
Your machine: He is one of your customers.
ISP Server: Does he have an account number?
Your machine: Yes.
ISP Server: What is that number?
Your machine: 5546743897
ISP Server: Ah, yes. OK, go ahead, 5546743897. You have access.

This is a simplified explanation, of course, but you can get the idea of the back-and-forths that need to occur in the handshake protocol before information can be sent or received. High-speed dial-up providers have cut down on this back-and-forth by creating a system that allows the conversing machines to remember responses to questions. This makes for a much shorter conversation:


Your machine: Hello, my name is Sparky.
ISP Server: Ah, hello, Sparky. Aren't you John Smith's machine.
Your machine: Yes, his account number is 5546743897.
ISP Server: Go ahead, 5546743897. You have access.

This shorter handshake equals much faster connection times. The increase in speed varies by machine, but in some cases it can reduce the handshake by up to 50 percent. What might take 45 seconds with a "normal" dial-up service becomes maybe a 30-second process with a high-speed service.

High-speed dial-up allows your machine to establish a connection with your ISP in a fraction of the time it takes with standard dial-up.

1.1 About this document

This document has one reason for existing, to teach something to others. Who should be reading this document

If you have some computers standing at home and you want to share your internet connection with the rest of the family, or if you like seeing your mail on the screen on the left side of your desk and your irc window on the screen that is standing at the right side of your desk you need ip masquerading. Yes I know there are also modem sharing packets for Microsoft products on the market. But the advantage is that this can be run on a 386 computer and it takes 3 more commands and you can have your own firewall. There are also more providers who offer cable modems and (too) much bandwidth for one computer. I think it is very handy. If I am reading my e-mail and I want to see if one of my friends is on IRC I just have to turn my head. You don't really need a cable modem, it also goes if you have a modem connection (I am the living example of that). 1.2 What do you need ?

Although I haven't explained what masquerading actually is (be patient) I will start by telling you what you need in order to use masquerading. You need: Multiple (>2) computers

A network connecting these computers

Different ip-numbers assigned to all computers

One pc who has a modem and an internet connection

The Linux os with a 2.2.x or higher kernel running on that machine

Half an hour of time (in the worst case)

Something to eat



So now you know what you need in order to use masquerading, I can start explaining what masquerading actually is: What is it

I know that masquerading is a complicated process so before getting all technical I'll start with an example that makes it easier to understand. Person A loves person B but person A isn't at the same school nor has her telephone number. There is also a common friend (person C) someone who knows A and is at the some school of B. So A is going to ask C to talk to B without mentioning who person A is. Pretending the acquired information is for himself. You will probably wondering why I made that example or on what television show you have seen the same. Well it is quite simple. Person B is the internet, and person A is a masqueraded client and person C is the masqueraded server.

For understanding it I'll first give a short introduction to TCP/IP". TCP/IP stands for Transmission Control Protocol / Internet Protocol. It is widely used for data communication among computers (before TCP/IP, everybody used UUCP = Unix to Unix Copy Protocol). TCP/IP is literally a protocol that controls your communication, it also uses IP numbers. IP-numbers consist out of 12 numbers grouped by 3 (123.456.789.123). Every computer attached to a network (and to the internet) have their own unique IP number. TCP/IP works like the following.
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and i want to contact 1.2.3.3
-> I am 1.2.3.3 did you call me ?
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I contacted you
-> I am 1.2.3.3 and ready
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I want that file
-> I am 1.2.3.3 and I am sending the first part to 1.2.3.4
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I have received it.
-> I am 1.2.3.3 and I am sending the second part to 1.2.3.4
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I haven't received anything
-> I am 1.2.3.3 and I am sending again
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I have received it.
-> I am 1.2.3.3 and I am waiting.
=> I am 1.2.3.4 and I am ready, bye
-> I am 1.2.3.3 Bye
I know this may seem a little childish but data communication (and TCP/IP) are working like that.





Now you should be able to understand the image. You see a computer with local IP 10.0.0.1 who is connected to the internet by a telephone line and has achieved an IP number by this ISP (Internet Service Provider) that IP is 11.1.1.4. What does this mean ? If someone on the internet tried to contact 11.1.1.4 they would get a response but if they would try to contact 10.0.0.1 they would not get a response although it is the same computer because the IP 10.0.0.1 isn't recognized worldwide. Then we have 10.0.0.2 till 10.0.0.x who are connected to 10.0.0.1. In this case we could consider 10.0.0.1 as a gateway (a gateway is a sort of exit to another network, a gateway could be a link between 10.0.1.x and 10.0.0.x, but therefore that machine must be recognized by 10.0.1.x and 10.0.0.x or with other words it should have 2 network cards or in this case a modem and a network card). So we could consider it as a gateway but there is one detail, for 10.0.0.1 being a gateway. But it isn't for the simple reason that the internet wouldn't recognize it.
=> I'm 10.0.0.2 and I want to contact you
-> I'm 1.2.3.3 and I have now idea how to reach you, go away (this messages isn't really broadcasted because there is no logical route between the two computers, this is logged)
So what does masquerading actually do ? Well, it gives its own IP (11.1.1.4 this is the IP that is attached to the ISP, giving by DHCP by exemple) to the entire network and remembers which computer requested which packet. Something like:
=> I'm 10.0.0.2 and I want to contact 1.2.3.3
-> I'm 10.0.0.1 and I will be processing your request
-> I'm 14.1.1.4 and I want to contact 1.2.3.3
_> I'm 1.2.3.3 and awaiting your command
I hope this cleared out a lot. So a masqueraded server gives its IP ( in facts it masks the ip's of the network) in order for the other pc's to get on the internet. And the incoming data is being filtered under the 10.0.0.x network.

2 I hate theory I want to type something

2.1 Preparing your system

I am supposing that you all have a computer with Linux OS installed on it and that you have configured your internet account (if not, check the help pages by your provider). And know some Linux basics like compiling your own kernel. This entire site is only valid if you have a 2.2.x kernel. Because masquerading went thru some changes lately. If you have not got a 2.2.x kernel running, I suggest you upgrade. Because older kernels might contain bugs, might not support your newest hardware and make your system vulnerable to attacks. You can get the latest kernel from ftp://ftp.kernel.org/ (I will explain short the kernel basics here)
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN GoMoRRaH]$ mv mykernel.tar.gz /usr/src/
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN GoMoRRaH]$ cd /usr/src
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN src]$ rm linux (removes the symbolic link to your old sources)
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN src]$ tar -zxvf mykernel.tar.gz
(your kernel is now being extracted default in the directory linux)
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN src]$ cd linux
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make menuconfig
(you can choose, type: make config for text based, type: make menuconfig for graphical and type: make xconfig under X-windows)
Now you can see all the options you can use, this is different for each system so, * stands for support and M stand for modules, modules are pieces of kernel code that can be compiled in at any time, later on) But however you have to say YES to the following: => Prompt for development and or incomplete code / drivers
=>Enable loadable module support
=>Networking support
=>Network firewalls
=>TCP/IP Networking
=>IP:forwarding/gatewaying
=>IP:firewalling
=>IP:masquerading
=>IP:ipportfw masq support
=>IP:ipautofw masq support
=>IP:ICMP masquerading
=>IP:always defragment
=>Dummy net driver support
=>IP:ip fwmark masq-forwarding support

Note that the above options are required for ip masquerading so you still need other codes in your kernel. When you are finished you will be prompted to save changes. The following commands do the actual compiling and may take a from 10 - 40 minutes and will show many characters which you may not understand on your screen, don't worry it is normal.
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make dep
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make clean
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make bzImage
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make modules
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ make modules_install
At this point you should edit your /etc/lilo.conf file. You should add something like
image=/boot/kernel
label=masqkernel
root=/dev/hdax (replace this by your root filesystem, harddisk, partition, ..)
read-only
This makes your boot manager find your new kernel at boot. So if your see the lilo prompt the next time you should type masqkernel
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux]$ lilo
added linux-2.2.5-15 *
added dos
added masqkernel
Now you should edit your /etc/rc.d/rc.local file so the modules needed are automatically loaded at boot
.
.
/sbin/depmode -a
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_ftp
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_raudio
/sbin/modprobe ip_masq_irc
.
.
These modules are needed for ftp, real audio and irc. There is only one thing to do besides rebooting and that is enabling your IPV4 forwarding.
[GoMoRRaH@SaTaN linux] echo "1" > /proc/sys/net/ip_forward(ing) Now you should reboot your system with your newly made kernel, see if everything boots properly, if not you should redo the above steps. Until you have a properly working kernel.

Start up your masquerade

In fact there isn't much to do once you've got your kernel right. It is a matter of dialing in with you provider, and typing 2 commands. They are used to set your forwarding policies. [GoMoRRaH@SaTaN GoMoRRaH]$ ipchains -P forward DENY

In order for this to work on your local network the only thing you have to adjust is the -s parameter. 10.0.0.0 is your network address and the 4 is the highest ip number that is masqueraded. Your server should work now. And yeah, that's really it, you have a lot of theory and a lot of preparation with your kernel and you have to type 2 lines to get your server up and running. Configuring your clients

You have a server but what is a server without clients ? What is a supermarket without customers ? Not that you have to do so much configuring no not at all. There is only one little thing that you have to take care of, (if it isn't already done). Your clients should have as a gateway the IP of your masqueraded server (here 10.0.0.1) This is located near your networking options it shouldn't be hard to find. 3 General

Other information sources
If you want to know more about Linux networking or Linux in general you should read documents that are published by the LDP (Linux documentation Project). They have published a Network administrators guide, a system administrators guide, a programmers guide and several HOWTO's. They come with each Linux distribution and are really worth reading.

1. Gaining access
=
First thing, we want to gain access to the windows box. I don't want to explain this very thorough, as there are a lot of tutorials already explaining this. The following methods for home PC's badly configured.

1. On win9X, try hitting alt-F4 or close the login window as soon as it comes up. This should get you right into the guest account. An administrator can disable this, so it might not always work.
2. On winNT based systems: Try booting into safemode and use the administator account (unpassworded). The account might be passworded by a system admin.

Other means of getting a password to the PC.

1. Sniffing the network for unencrypted authentication traffic.
2. Social engineering.
3. Trojaning.
4. Brute forcing. (Guessing obvious passwords).

2. Privilege escalation
=
2.1 Bad configuration
=
On many PC's, bad configuration is very common. Bad configuration can be anything, from guest or non-admin users having privileges they shouldn't have like power to browse vital directory's, to being able to download and install to C: or root disk.
=
2.2 Privilege Inheritance
=
Privilege inheritance is about programs getting the same privilege as their spawning parent. A common mistake like this is log viewing in server applications. For example, program X is a server for streaming music, it is run as "Local System" with full privileges. X gives it's users the capability to view log files from the application itself. Hacker Y opens the IDE for the server and presses the "View Logs" button. A nice open dialog shows itself and Y browses to C:windowssystem32, right clicks cmd.exe and chooses the option "Open". Hacker Y has "Local System" privileges over the computer now because program X forgot to lower the privileges of cmd.exe to the actual user privilege.
This action can also be made with a simple shatter attack to win32hlp.exe's open dialog box.
If a program has a higher privilege then the current user the attacker is on and has some kind of file interaction, it is definetly worth to check for a privilege inheritence attack.
=
2.3 Shatter attacks
=
Win32 platforms are build on two mechanisms, API's and Windows Messaging. The last one is the one we are interested in. What the windows messaging structure does is send actions and happenings to a program using the SendMessage() function. win32 C++ programmers will recognize this from the callback function required for a windows application to work properly. The message system controls a lot of functions, such as dropdown boxes, timers, dialogs and user input. The problem with this structure is that there is no way for the message structure to see where the "Message" came from, so the user can send any message and achieve the same results as explorer.exe would. (not up to date, Mcft has kind of locked functions like timer functions, to keep memory jumping from happening). Simple exploiting: look up the SendMessage API from msdn.
=
2.4 Auto start-up exploiting
=
Any instructions that windows uses on what applications to execute at a user log-in are insecure! Any user can edit regedit and put a file in the Mcft directory, or any other way of starting up. This means an attacker with a guest account can edit the registery to open a bot that edits or makes a user account with elevated privileges. This can also be used to copy whole secured directory's, or phising for a password from the administrator.

A Japanese blogger who goes by the name Hamachiya2 has discovered a single line of HTML and CSS that crashes IE 6. The line is:

Click anywhere and draw as the image says it all, but it is more than clicking and drawing in paint brush.

Try it out, its cool paintbrush which draws some really different 3D characters every time depending on your brush strokes.

Found it while searching on net,hope you guys might like it too.

You can create a CD that can install Windows XP automatically, putting in all the details and answering all the dialog boxes.

The secret behind this is the answer file, which tells Windows what to do while it's installing. The answer file can be created using Windows setup manager.

Using this tool, you can make the answer file so powerful that you can even tell Windows to include or exclude individual components, set the display resolution, and more.

Here's the Steps involved in creating XP Automated Installation Disc :

Step 1: To begin with, insert your Windows XP installation CD into the drive and copy the entire contents of the CD to a new folder on your hard disk.

Step 2: Navigate to the Support > Tools folder on the CD and double-click the Deploy.cab file. Copy all the files to a new folder on your hard disk.

Step 3: The crucial part begins now, creating the answer file. To execute the windows setup manager, double click the Setupmgr.exe file from the contents of the Deploy.cab, which you just copied onto the hard drive.

Step 4: The first few steps of the wizard are self explanatory. Select the following options from the successive dialog boxes. Create a new answer file; Windows unattended installation (Select the appropriate Windows version); "Fully automated"; "No this answer file will be used to install from CD"; and finally, accept the license agreement.

Step 5: Under the General Settings, you can customize the installation of Windows by providing the default name and organization, display settings, time zone and the product key. Fill in the fields using the drop-down list or by keying in the details. If you don't select an option from the drop-down list, the default values will be used.

Step 6: After you are done click Finish and save the answer file as "winnt.sif" when you are prompted. Advanced users can further tweak the answer file by referring to the Help file called Ref.chm in the same folder.

Step 7: Finally copy the answer file to i386 folder in the Windows XP installation folder you created in the beginning.

Step 8: To burn a bootable installation disc, you need the boot sector of the Windows XP CD. Download it from here bootfiles.zip

Step 9: Launch Nero and select CD-ROM (Boot) from the New Compilation dialog box. Under the Boot tab, specify the boot sector file you downloaded and extracted. Set the emulation as "No emulation", and keep the boot message blank. Most importantly, remember to set the "Number of loaded sectors" as 4.

Step 10: Under the Burn tab, set the write method to disc at-once. Click the New button to to begin adding files and folders to the compilation. Drag all the contents of the Windows XP installation disc that you copied to your hard drive (with the answer file in the i386 folder) into the left pane. Insert a blank CD into the optical drive and hit burn button. Your windows automated installation Disc is ready! :)

The Nokia N95 is an impressive device, and one that is set to become the top high end smartphone for 2007. What impresses about the N95 is that so many features have been packed into a relatively small device.

N95 is a little bigger than the N73 and has a 5 megapixel camera with VGA video capture too.

You can connecet N95 to any other devices through: USB, Infrared, Bluetooth, GSM, WCDMA, HSDPA and WLAN N95 has got integrated GPS with 150MB of internal memory (expandable via a microSD slot), and software platfrom - S60 3rd Edition FeaturePack1.
The camera, which is 5 megapixels and uses Carl Zeiss optics, is on the back of the device and is accompanied by a 'ring-slider' which open and closes the shutter.

Opening the shutter activates the camera application. To take pictures, the phone is held horizontally with the screen used as a view finder, as on the N73.

In this mode, the capture key is on the top right of the device. This means the N95 is used in the same way as most point and shoot digital cameras.

The camera application has a number of extras, camera options now include 4 ISO settings, contrast and sharpness adjustment, and an enhanced burst mode (now with gaps of up to 15 minutes).

In conclusion, i dont regret buying my N95. But i wont be giving up my current N-GageQD
