Infiltrator Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I have used quite a few hacking tools: Ophcrack for cracking windows password rtgen.exe for generating rainbow tables. Cain and Abel for sniffing passwords on the network Metasploits for exploiting computers and getting a reverse command shell GFI's Languard for finding vulnerabilities on a network. And Kismet for locating non broadcasting wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h3%5kr3w Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 (edited) Ophcrack is ok... I just use konboot and then reset the password. Much quicker than cracking.. Kaspersky av boot disk for taking out those nasties. When people are cheap there is only one option for all around protection... MS security essentials UBCD4Win, UBCD4DOS, and BartPE disks.. for the cause. Almost anything that would stop the system from booting. Also great hdd utils. Android Wireless Analyzer for new/added APs and Wifi Routers Android Wireless tether (and wired... and bluetooth) For those folks with POTS.. Metasploit is nice and all I just really never delved into it too much. Yersinia for "bringing down the house" :D people aggrivating you watching youtube in the study/break room? np.. ddos the wireless switch @ layer 2. No more internet till someone resets And glad to see I am not the only one who still uses cain n abel :) Edited June 14, 2010 by h3%5kr3w Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use other products that does a better job in securing my computer than Microsoft security products.

VaKo Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 MS Security Essentials is actually pretty nice. I don't want to pay for av, and its less intrusive that anything else I've used, yet it picks up more than AntiVir did. I like it. And tbh, if people are saying its shit I want to see evidence to say why. As for best hacking thing I've done, figuring out how ticket inspectors work. If you show a season ticket, on a busy train, they don't read them, so I've managed to do London to Manchester, return, using an expire season ticket from Farnborough to Reading, saving over £140. I've also managed to commute to work for just under 2 weeks on a ticket that just had the word "VOID" printed on it, which is 19 instances of ticket inspectors reading the word VOID and treating it as a valid ticket, which if you factor in the £20 fine, saved me about £40 in transport costs.

So you never got inspected, or told off for using an expired or modified ticket? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
