fwiw i had a hell of a time getting kismet to work with my orinoco gold card until i downloaded knoppix-std and then it worked first time. the major problem wiith the orinoco is that it has limited range for cracking wep. sdduming you are trying it at home you cant exactly hang your laptop out the window, ideally you want a usb adaptor with an extension cable which you can then hang out your window or move to a better signal reception area, i use a linksys usb adaptor for my surfing and it picks up many more packets than my orinoco, unfortunately it is not supported by kismet, i am going to buy one of these netgear ma111 adaptors and try it with knoppix-std, that would be perfect for cracking wep,

i had a look at that usb cardm it doesnt say what chipset it uses so it may not work in RFMON mode which is what you need for wardriving with linux. also it doesnt appear as though it can take an extension cable which is also essential to hang it out your window.

good point, ill run an adware scan. is lavasoft adaware sufficient ?

my neighbour where i live, im pretty certain he sent me some strange popups on firefox today, he either owns the open network or he leeches i do. do i need 2 wireless nics to do an ettercap arp poison mitm attack ?

i think he is using ettercap and arp poisoning, if i wanted to do this trick i would need two wireless network cards so i could act as a gateway/mitm/proxy right ??

with wireless it appears anything is possible, could another client machine (possibly another leecher) perform the same attack ? imagine we are both leeching off the same unsecured wifi hotpsot, could he intercpet my packets and do his transparent proxy trick ? im such a lame brain at this stuff. i used to do sysadmin but dont know a thing about hacking, another question please: does an arp scan flag up on a firewall ? looks like i found the answer: ettercap

if i was using the internet via their adsl wifi, ie leeching, what if they ran a proxy server on the gateway ? could they see what connections to http i had open and then forge a packet with the correct credentials and send it to me ? this would get through my firewall easily, they would just create the packet with the source port and ip of a connection i already had open ??

can someone on the same network as you force open a popup window in your firefox browser ? im not talking about a web server opening a popup im talking about another computer user sharing te same network ? some kind of man in the middle attack or proxy server subterfuge ?

spam ? awa and raffle yer dougnhut

ive experienced the same problems, make sure the server service and remote registry service are running, it seems that pwdumop defaults to network mode which is probably not desirable when run on the local computer, may i suggest to the developers that the defaukt should be local computer mode and then network mode ? why access admin$ when you are on the local machine ? it should use %systemroot% instead which will point to the same directory.,

when i run Netcat in stealth mode the console just hangs there. its on win2k sp4 c:tempnc -L -d -e cmd.exe -p 1234 is netcat still in use or are peole using newer tools.
