<school admin rant> Why in the hell do we have to see so many threads about how to get around the proxies and filters? Come on... Stupid or not, they are there for a reason. Most admins wether you think they are dumb or not, have some sort of fucking clue! Do your fucking chats/email/whatever at home or the public library. School is for learning; not for hacking past filters... And while im ranting, learn to search forums here, google, ask.com, hell I'd even settle for MSN search. If you want to learn, learn how to do it by searching and learning how to properly weed through the results. </school admin rant> BTW, welcome to the Hak5 forums, but FFS, learn to search, please.

using software such as mIRC you can connect via irc://irc.hak5.org/hak5

quoted from an email: I had to share this, because who in their right mind would reply to this and not expect more spam.... ....Free listings....spamvertising....i look forward to you reply....entire disclaimer msg.... fun fun and more fun

!vote thread lock do not feed the n00bs, trolls, or other forms of abundant wildlife.

or you can always enclose it with quotes: "c:program filespath torealprogram hereexecutable.exe"

sorry, but gotta laugh. that sucks though. I could do without the info about having a "hood". thats a bit too much info...

what happens to the second one? Do you have the right settings? *hint* irc.hak5.org *hint*

Its your day!! Today is International Disadvantaged People's Day. Please send an encouraging message to a retarded friend, just as I've done. I don't care if you lick windows, interfere with farm animals, vote way on the left with the queers or occasionally shit yourself....... You hang in there sunshine !!! You're fucking special... !!!!!!!! p.s. no this isnt spam, well maybe it could be but its still funny as hell and I had to share it. :) -Manuel

ERD commander is a great tool. I've only used the trial version (fully functional for a period of time), but it works great.

Yeah, you keep saying that, but nothing ever seems to be done about it. Your president seems to make the law up as he goes along and your congress and senate make the mafia look like a legitimate poster child for the anti-corruption squad. For a country with a massive amount of guns you seem fairly under the thumb. I agree with you there VaKo, although im not sure I wanna admint that I am an American. While it is true that many people disagree with what our government does, most do not do anything about it. Part of it is that protests are not effective anymore. part of it is that if you protest against the government they same to make you disappear. Part of it is the media. They only glorify the bad crap. The other part is that there seems to be many people who are "too busy" to be bothered with things like this and in the mean time do nothing but let it all slip by. At least in the 1970's many groups protested and showed what they thought. What ever happened to those people and their concepts?

First of all, upgrade your mIRC. (thats not why your not connecting, but you should update anyway). Second of all, make sure you are not using TOR. Lastly, change your full name. Your email address listed there does not and should not be your real email. Your nickname and alternative should not be GECOS (if it is). HTH

I agree with Moonlit and VaKo... "Foul" language should be self monitored; no rules per se because its a personal preference. The reality is, as moonlit and Vako pointed out, is that in movies, music and everyday life you hear a lot worse. If people get offended, in my opinon, need not to hang around. not only that but so many people come from different parts of the world and find some words offensive, whereas other do not. I'll bite my tongue (read fingers) and not say much more on this at this time (so I don't feed the n00bs/trolls). oh and to bring it back on topic: It does suck that large companies like Sony can knock out the little guys like that. Too frucking bad it had to happen.

yeah. we totally believe you. anyhow why call it a lab, when its just a workstation with multiple logins? why would you be running a novel network if you are at home? There are very few advantages to running a novel network at home. Don't try to lie. we are not that dumb around here. Don't insult the forum mods or admins or for that matter other computer savvy people. All it ends up doing is causing you to get the usual lectures and start flame wars, even though we love noobs with bacon over an open flame.

I use PC inspector file recovery from http://www.pcinspector.de/file_recovery/UK/welcome.htm If data is in anyway recoverable, this tool will bring it back in most cases. We use it on windows 2000/XP clients and 2000/2003 servers. It has even recovered a file or two when a partition on a server was reformated (that I never really admitted to)... It didnt recover everything, but it was enough to help me bring back files thus keeping me employed. ( I blamed it on a virus ).

I was while I was a senior. I helped the admin with basic tasks, then as time grew on, I eventually earned a full time position. Now I am an admin. :) so yes I am on a first name basis with my admin and am friendly with myself. :p

most sites you can embed the username & password into the url example by using a "?" after the page url, then after each item use an "&" so in the case of google mail we could use this: obviously no spaces or carriage returns, but broken up here to prevent scrolling :) https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLoginAuth ?service=mail &amp;Passwd=yourlamepasswordhere &amp;passive=true &amp;rm=false &amp;continue=http%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%3F&amp;hl=en &amp;Email=youremailusernamehere &amp;PersistentCookie=yes so basically look at the html coding to get the variables needed.

sorry to tell you, but we do not offer assistance with obtaining passwords like that. Secondly all I can say is "your friend's" passwords must be too simple, and the use of keyloggers may be in play. Other than that, RTFFM here: http://www.hak5.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1674

wtf u ain't one. don't dream of it... no that means that a forum op/admin deleted the content and replaced it with that image, because the said topic was not intended to be released to everyone. plain and simple. -Manuel

You know you're a noob when you panic because your desktop icons refresh and you accuse the system admin of hacking into your computer. You know you're a noob when you have a screen resolution of 1024x768 and have 15 columns and 9 rows of icons that are overlapping by 3 times each column and you think theres is nothing wrong with it. You know you're a noob when you store important files in the recycle bin. When the admin comes around and empties the trash, you panic becasue the most important file of the year was "saved" in there.

You know your a hacker when each of your five computer monitors are larger than your one tv.

you're one away from being a Pirate. :p Manuel
