well, I'm 31 now, but when I was 16 I had the phedz visit my house for

some pentagon and nasa antics revolved around tymnet and telenet.

I think telenet was later renamed sprintnet.

Anyone remember those networks?

And btw this is in America. My tag says Australia cuz that's where I live

now and not because of those incidents ;)

I was suspended from school after an incident with a bbc micro, these days I make a living understanding PC's and networks in a business enviroment.

If I wore a hat it would be grey, but anyway, this is interesting reading...

The Hacker Manifesto

The Mentor's Last Words

Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers. "Teenager Arrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"... Damn kids. They're all alike. But did you, in your three- piece psychology and 1950's techno brain, ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker? Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have moulded him? I am a hacker, enter my world.

Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me... Damn underachiever. They're all alike. I'm in junior high or high school or college. I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction. I understand it. "No, Ms. Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..." Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found a computer. Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me.. Or thinks I'm a smart ass.. Or doesn't like teaching and think it shouldn't be here... Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike.

And then it happened... a door opened to a world...rushing through the phone line like heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetence's is sought... a board is found. "This is it... this is where I belong..." I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all... Damn kid. Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike... You bet your ass we're all alike...we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak...the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless. We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but they are like drops of water in the desert.

This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals. We explore... and you call us criminals. We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals. We exist without skin colour, without nationality, without religious bias...and you call us criminals. You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal. My crime is that of curiosity. My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like. My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for. I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this individual, but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.

the oxygen group has always prided itself at being

White Hat Hackers.

I'd say that our creation of a white virus is our success as being the first group in the world to create a script that

actually searches out other viruses on pc's and removes them but spreads itself like a virus.

(later seen as a 'disinfectant' for HPC)

Anybody who does anything to 'harm' someone else should not be supported.

Then again, if it werent for them, MS wouldn't be releasing SP2 would they lol.

No, I'm not but unfortunetely people think I am just because I got into a teacher's computer through the school network and gave some failing people and a few close friends a copy of the final exam. I have gotten into a couple of email accounts of students and teachers but I never read/change their stuff or anything (why the fcuk would I care who writes what to them :rolleyes:) and just send them an email to themselves using their account telling them to change their password and security questions asap and what to do to ensure it doesn't happen again. :)

i would be impressed if you actually wrote the network clients and servers that performed the DDoS (its really not that hard)

on another note, a friend of a friend of a friend of mine got admin privlages (key logger) and found a few porno videos and pictures on a teachers shared drive

he got suspended for selling the videos to other students :p

Get things straight.

Hackers are the good guys of the internet, they find the exploits ( Security holes ) and alert the system administrator. But due to the media changing this image people look at hackers as they are horrible geeks who do damage. WRONG

Crackers are the ones who do damage !

I am a x-cracker, i was a very bad boy when i was younger ;)

There is also script kiddies who ARE NOT hackers they use hackers scripts to try and ' hack ' or ' crack ; into a persons computer.

    • Microsoft updates default app choices for Windows 10 and the Curl tool with build 19045.6029

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft updates default app choices for Windows 10 and the Curl tool with build 19045.6029 by Sayan Sen Microsoft has rolled out a new Windows 10 release preview build today for Insiders flighting the channel. The new build, 19045.6029, has some new changes and improvements. The biggest highlight is related to default app choices for the EEA (European Economic Area) region. Microsoft writes: "We are rolling out some small changes in the EEA region for default browsers via the Set default button in Settings > Apps > Default apps: Additional file and link types will be set for the new default browser, if it registers them. The new default browser will be pinned to the Taskbar and Start menu unless you choose not to pin it by clearing the checkboxes. There is now a separate one-click button for browsers to change your .pdf default, if the browser registers for the .pdf file type." Microsoft has also updated the curl command line tool with "most recent stable version is 8.14.1". Aside from those, remote Component Object Model (COM) activation that were failing with 0x8001011 error code has been fixed. And there are several other changes too. The full changelog is given below: [Mobile Operator Profiles] Updated: Country and Operator Settings Asset (COSA) profiles. [App Platforms and Frameworks] Fixed: An issue affecting Component Object Model (COM) functionality on Windows platforms, where remote COM activations were failing with error 0x8001011. Upgraded the version of the curl tool included in Windows to v8.13.0. [Authentication Platform] Fixed: An issue affecting the device registration in Entra ID Windows Account Manager (WAM) plugin. [Input and Composition] Fixed: An issue affecting the complete removal of unused language packs and Feature on Demand (FOD) packages. This led to unnecessary storage use and increase in Windows Update installation time. [Print and Peripherals] Fixed: An issue affecting USB-connected Multi-Function printers with dual protocol interfaces, where scanning may fail and prevent use of the OS’s built-in scanning functionality. [Start Menu] Fixed: An issue causing jump lists to disappear from the Start Menu. Fixed: An issue where the Start Menu was not starting after installing an update. [Settings] Fixed: Settings > System > About unexpectedly shows version 2009 instead of version 22H2. [Servicing] Fixed: An issue where Kiosk devices using the ForceAutoLogon configuration and Shift Override might stop responding with a blue screen after being locked and unlocked by support administrators. [File Server] Fixed: An issue where the system may hang when acknowledging an Oplock break on resources located on SMB shares. You can find the official blog post here on Microsoft's website.

      This is a liability problem. They aren't simply going to trust that you aren't the driver. I think if they really wanted to they could do something similar to key fobs where they only work if they are in the proximity of the driver's seat. As already pointed out by a Random Stranger, simply having your passenger hit the play button doesn't make it any less distracting for the driver.
    • Windows 11 gets improved app defaults settings and Windows Share in build 22631.5545

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Windows 11 gets improved app defaults settings and Windows Share in build 22631.5545 by Taras Buria Windows 11 build 22631.5545 is now available for download in the Release Preview Channel of the Windows Insider Program. The update is a pretty minor one, but it still packs some important changes, such as improvements for app defaults in the Settings app, Windows Share enhancements, and a few fixes here and there. With build 22631.5545, Microsoft is giving users in the EEA region more control over default apps in Windows 11, particularly for browser defaults. Now, browser defaults support additional file and link types. Your default browser now pins itself to the taskbar (you can turn this option off), plus you can change your typical PDF viewer with one click (if the browser of choice supports PDF handling). As for Windows Share improvements, the sharing window now includes a preview of the link that you are about to send to someone. The rest of the changelog includes various fixes: [Audit] Fixed: An issue with auditing privilege use created too many security event logs. These logs filled up the system drive and prevented users from signing in. [Authentication] Fixed: This update fixes an issue where domain-joined machines running Windows 11 22H2 or 23H2 couldn’t update their account passwords on Windows Server 2025 domain controllers, which led to trust relationship issues. [Country and Operator Settings Asset (COSA)] Fixed: This update brings profiles up to date for certain mobile operators. [Display Kernel] Fixed: An issue that prevented Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections until you restarted your device. [Network file sharing] Fixed: This update fixes an issue where workstations and servers might stop responding when connecting to resources located on Server Message Block (SMB) shares. [Performance] Fixed: This update addresses an issue that prevented the complete removal of unused language packs and Feature on Demand packages, which previously led to unnecessary storage use and longer Windows Update installation times. [Shell] Fixed: This update resolves an issue where kiosk devices might stop responding after being locked and unlocked by an administrator. [Windows Hello] Fixed: This update fixes an issue that prevented the automatic renewal of expiring certificates in Windows Hello for Business. [Windows Search] Fixed: Windows Search responds very slowly—the Search Box can take over 10 seconds to load before you can use it. You can find the announcement post here.
