Desktop hacking - Cracking Windows Logon Password.(Hacking SAM file) Windows NT/2000/XP/2003

SAM File – Holds the user names and password hashes for every account on the local

machine, or domain if it is a domain controller.

-What are password Hashes? Actually when we enter password in Windows Logon

Tab, Windows encryptsour password using an encryption scheme that turns our

password into something that looks like this: 65464564s1d4d2c9a56s42166d55se

SAM file can be found under C:(default OS drive) -> WINNT -> System32 -> Config ->

SAM. SAM file can be cracked by sing a simple freeware software “SAMInside”.

Troubleshooting : While copying SAM file it shows an error of “Access Denied” or “File

in Use”. Actually copying of SAM file is restricted by Windows. There are many

alternatives to copy SAM file. [1] You can boot your system by a Live Linux CD such

as Knnopix or Fedora. Linux has access to all Windows Files. This way SAM file can be

easily copied.

Desktop hacking - Keylogger.
If you want to know what other users are typing on your machine, this heavy

Desktop hacking – Multiple Google Talk.

Now it’s turn to use multiple google talk. Previously we covered that how to run

multiple Yahoo messenger using Yahoo Pal!. Well for google talk, you don’t have to

download any software. Just follow the following simple steps.

1) Create a Shortcut on ur Desktop.

2)In the field ‘type the location of the item’ paste the following source… c:\program

files\google\google talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex

3)If this loction doesn’t work, then locate manually by clicking on browse

option.Then go to c:-> program file ->google-> google talk->googletalk.exe and then

paste /nomutex in the end of manually located source. Finished. Now you can run

multiple Google Talk.

Desktop hacking - BIOS Passwords Hacks.

To perform this hack you will need:

A #1 or #2 Phillips-head screwdriver, or (less likely) a T-15 TORX driver or a 1/4″

hex nutdriver, to open the case

Needle-nosed pliers if you are working with jumpers

A small flashlight or headlamp

With tools at hand, perform the following steps:

Turn the PC off (this means a total shutdown, not merely standby or hibernate mode)

and disconnect the AC power cord.

Remove the cover from your system (this step may require tools, undoing a

thumbscrew, or flipping a latch or two).

Refer to the user manual for the motherboard to find out how to “reset CMOS”

memory. You may also find a label for specific jumper or switch settings marked on

the system board.

Change the switch setting or jumper position to a specific position or remove the

jumper entirely as prescribed in the manual to clear or reset the CMOS memory.

Wait 20-30 seconds for the memory to clear out from lack of power.

After 20-30 seconds put the switch or jumper the way it was before for normal use.

Reconnect the power cord and start up the system to see if the settings have

changed to defaults.

Shut the PC down, disconnect the power cord, replace the cover, reconnect the

power, and power up the PC.

Enter the BIOS setup program to configure the system as needed. This may include

setting the date and time, selecting disk drive parameters, and selecting which

devices the system uses to boot up with first.

If your system does not have a “reset CMOS” jumper or switch , the only option is to

locate and remove the coin-style battery cell (or on some very old PCs, the battery

pack), as shown in , that provides the power to the CMOS memory.

Desktop hacking – Create BAD sectors on HDD. (Dangerous Hack)

This program will create BAD Sectors on HDD. (Use at your own risk) #include

Desktop hacking - Change DOS Colour.

SYNTAX Sets the default console foreground and background colors.

COLOR [attr]

attr Specifies color attribute of console output

Color attributes are specified by TWO hex digits — the first corresponds to the

background; the second the foreground. Each digit can be any of the below values.

0 = Black 8 = Gray 1 = Blue 9 = Light Blue 2 = Green A = Light Green 3 = Aqua B =

Light Aqua 4 = Red C = Light Red 5 = Purple D = Light Purple 6 = Yellow E = Light

Yellow 7 = White F = Bright White If no argument is given, this command restores the

color to what it was when CMD.EXE started. This value either comes from the current

console window, the /T command line switch or from the Default Color registry value.

The COLOR command sets ERROR LEVEL to 1 if an attempt is made to execute the

COLOR command with a foreground and background color that are the same.

EXAMPLE

Color 2A = Creates a green background with light bright green text, similar to many of

the FTP, telnet, and old BBS console screens.

Valid for a session only.

Desktop hacking - Speed Up XP Booting.

Start Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).

Locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Current ControlSet\Control\Session

Manager\MemoryManagement\Prefetch Parameters

Make sure you backup the keys by exporting them to a .reg file.

On the EnablePrefetcher value, change the setting from 3 to 5 (decimal).

Close the registry editor.

Restart your computer.

Desktop hacking –
Using Your Command Prompt.

Type netstat -a Display all connections and listening ports, netstat -b Display the

executable involved in creating each connection or listening port. In some

well-known executables host multiple independent components, and in these cases

the sequence of components involved in creating the connection or listening port is

displayed. In this case the executable name is in [ ] at the bottom, on top is the

component it called, and so forth until TCP/IP was reached. Note that this option can

be time-consuming and will fail unless you have sufficient permissions. netstat -e

Displays Ethernet statistics. This may be combined with the -s option. netstat -n

Displays addresses and port numbers in numerical form. netstat -o Displays the

owning process ID associated with each connection. netstat -p proto Shows

connections for the protocol specified by proto; proto may be any of : TCP, UDP,

TCPv6, or UDPv6. If used with -s option to display per-protocol statistics, proto may

be any of: IP, IPv6, ICMP, ICMPv6, TCP, TCPv6, UDP, or UDPv6 netstat -r Displays

the routing table. netstat -s Displays per-protocol statistics. netstat -v When used in

conjunction with -b, will display sequence of components involved in creating the

connection or listening port for all executables.

Desktop hacking - Change Text on XP Start button.

Now that the modified explorer.exe has been created it’s necessary to modify the

registry so the file will be recognized when the user logs on to the system. If you don’t

know how to access the registry I’m not sure this article is for you, but just in case it’s

a temporary memory lapse, go to Start (soon to be something else) Run and type

regedit in the Open: field. Navigate to

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ SOFTWARE\ Microsoft\ Windows NT\ CurrentVersion\

Winlogon

In the right pane, double click the Shell entry to open the Edit String dialog box. In

Value data: line, enter the name that was used to save the modified explorer.exe file.

Click OK.

Close Registry Editor and either log off the system and log back in, or reboot the

entire system if that’s your preference. If all went as planned you should see

your new

Start button with the revised text.

Desktop hacking – Disable or Remove Shutdown.

It is Possible to Remove Shut Down option from Start menu. Just follow the following

steps. Start->Run->gpedit.msc->User Configuration->Administrative

Templates->Start Menu &Taskbar->Remove Shutdown on Start Menu.->Enable. Its

Done!

Desktop hacking - how to fix blue screen error in windows xp

Blue screen crash will display all of your pending and an error screen that suddenly

come to light that informs you that your screen is frozen. In addition, some errors

DLL will also appear and ask if you recently added any new hardware or programs on

your computer.

When this incident occurs, they have gone mad, especially if you have not saved or

finish something you’re working. Of course, you have to do your job again from the

beginning. You would be really upset and angry, no? So what can you do to fix blue

screen error like this?

The easiest and fastest way to solve this problem is to run a registry cleaner software.

And if you’ve decided to let a technician fix your computer for you, stop there, you

do not want to pay for something you can fix yourself, right?

Also, if you want to ask about any technician may be able to resolve the accident,

which will undoubtedly tell you that it is a very complex matter and therefore should

be treated by a professional like him. If the technician is not to say there will be no

business left for him.

But in reality, what is going to do is just run a registry cleaner in the drive and then

asks for the payment of reparations and the software used. Furthermore, unloading,

installation and repair of the blue screen error using a software is not very difficult to

do and that saves time and, well, why would you pay someone else just to make

something simple for you?

Here are some things you can do to fix and solve your blue screen crash. This is

especially useful if you’re not familiar with the technical team and just want quick and

simple solutions.

1. Restart your computer

Sometimes the blue screen comes out only once and then not again for a second time. In this case, a simple restart is just what you need to resolve the blue screen crash.
On the other hand, if the problem is more regular, you may have to deal with other things.

2. Replace your random access memory (RAM)

RAM is a hardware that is permanently installed inside the computer’s motherboard. It is a rectangular piece that holds the information. This is where the CPU gets the instructions. And once this equipment is not functioning normally, without doubt, the computer crash in the blue screen. And so, the replacement of the RAM can be a solution.

3. Run a registry cleaner

A registry cleaner can eliminate errors in your record. This record stores all information about the software, drivers, applications and games that are installed on your computer. And in time, it can get bad, because some obsolete entries are not deleted and can lead to what they call the “blue screen of death.”

Fix Blue Screen of Death Error is easy to do with registry cleaner. If you Scan Your Computer it will detect all the errors in your registry and safely remove them.

4. Restart yhur computer again

Now restart again and press continuously F8 and now press on last known

configuration setting and keep it up . If this error again occur then reinstall ur

windows .
