The ZIP of Death

The ZIP of Death :-

This is a exploit of the compression algorithms to make a small zip that will extract into extream amounts their are more ways and better ones than this one but i will only show how to make a simple 1k = 1m ratio.

1) Make a.txt file
2) Open and type the null character (alt + 255)
3) Press ctrl + a then ctrl + v a couple times to make some null bytes
4) If u have a hexeditor make the hex 00 for about 50 kilobytes.
5) Now make several copies of a.txt and name accordinly
6) Open cmd.exe
7) Type copy /b *.txt b.txt
8) Now every copy is made into a super copy and repeat
9) Once you have a nice empty big text file like 1gb. Put it in a zip archive.
Because of the simple construction of the file, 1gb of null bytes.....!

The zip is only 1 mb in size and can really annoy freinds.
For added fun hex edit the zip and you will see a bunch of hex 5555
Just add some more and the file will expand amazingly
Make sure to not open this after
You can always create your zip of death from the command line in linux
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1000 count=1000000 | gzip > test.gz

RESOURRCE HACKER TUTORIAL




There are numerous things that you can do with Resource Hacker, but in this tutorial we'll be learning how to hack the file that contains most of the Windows default icons, the shell32.dll file.

Before you go and start hacking the file, it is EXTREMELY important that you make a backup of the file. Go to your Windows/System32/ directory and you see the file there. Make a copy of it (Right-click, "Copy") and then store it somewhere else, wherever you like.

"Hacking" that shell32

Now, start Resource Hacker, and open the shell32.dll file by selecting "File", then "Open" (or Ctrl + O).

Now, select "Action", and then "Replace Icon". A screen displaying the icon groups and a preview of the icon that accompanies the respective groups will appear.

For instance, you can see that the 'Run' icon group is resource 25, while the 'Help' resource is 24. If you need more help on identifying the various icons, here's a visual aid (right-click on link and Save Target As). Find the icon you want to replace on the right side of the window. Click on the "Open File With New icon ..." tab. Browse through your directories to look for the replacement icon and click "Open". You should see your new icon on the left side with the old icon on the right side. Select "Replace".

Once you're done with replacing the old icons with new ones, select "File" and then "Save As ...". Choose where you want to save this new customized shell32 file, for example on your desktop.

Replacing that hacked shell32

Once you're done with replacing the icons in the shell32.dll file, you would need to replace this new file with the old one. Two ways you could do that.

First, the easy way: use the program Replacer.

Second, the manual way:
(1) Boot into Safe Mode (press F8 while booting).
(2) Go to Windows\system32 folder and rename shell32.dll file to shell32.bak
(3) Copy the hacked shell32.dll to this folder.
(4) If you have a Windows\ServicePackFiles folder :
- Go to Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 folder and rename shell32.dll to shell32.bak.
- Copy the hacked shell32.dll to this folder.
(5) If you do not have a Windows\ServicePackFiles folder :
- Go to Windows\system32\dllcache folder and rename shell32.dll to shell32.bak.
- Copy the hacked shell32.dll to this folder.
(6) Reboot.

(Note: The folder Windows\system32\dllcache is a hidden folder. You need to go to Tools --> Folder Options --> View and make sure that the option "Show Hidden Files and Folders" is checked, while the "Hide protected operating system files folder" is unchecked. Only then will you see your dllcache folder. Alternatively you can simply type in C:\Windows\system32\dllcache in the Address bar of Explorer.)

Now, no matter which of the above methods you use, if the icons do not change after you've reboot, you need to rebuild the icon cache using Microsoft's TweakUI (it's free and extremely useful).

resource hacker Tutorial2

Ultimate Guide to RESOURCE HACKER
-------------------------------------------------------------
!!! WARNING !!!

Playing with system files using resource hacker can be
Dangerous for your system and it can make your
system not working.

So use it at your own risk!


First of all hi to all "cynides"

So many members hv asked me a lot of questions about Resource Hacker, like:

=> How to replace existing Resources ( Bitmaps, AVI, Icons, etc.) in a file?
=> How to add ur own resources?
=> How to change Menus/ Strings?

and so on...

I was working on this post for the last 1 weak.

So here I'll try to cover all such questions and many other tips-n-tricks.
So here we go.....

NOTE: I hv divided this tutorial in 2 parts:

PART1 : BASIC INFORMATION
PART2 : ADVANCED INFORMATION

Basic part contains Basic details, like viewing/replacing resources, etc.
Advanced part covers some advance information which is described for geeks. Like Adding ur own resources, using scripts with resource hacker, etc.

PART1 : BASIC INFORMATION

What is Resource Hacker:

Resource Hacker is a Free s/w to edit 32-bit windows files (DLL, EXE, CPL, and many other). U can add/delete/view/rename/modify existing resources in a file using this gr8 piece of s/w.

Download Link:

U can d/l Resource Hacker from h**p://delphi.icm.edu.pl/ftp/tools/ResHack.zip
U don't need to install it, simply extract the files and run the s/w. It also doesnt make any entry in Registry!

Using Resource Hacker:

When u open a file in Resource Hacker, it shows various directories in left-side pane, like:

AVI
Cursor
Bitmap
Icon
Menu
Dialog
String Table
Accelerators
Version Info

and so on...
These directories vary from file to file!

continuing....

Following is a small description of these directories:

AVI : This directory contains AVI files.
Cursor : This directory contains Cursor files.
Bitmap : This directory contains Bitmaps.
Icon : This directory contains Icons.
Menu : This directory contains various Menus.
Dialog : This directory contains various Dialog boxes.
String Table : This directory contains various Strings.
Accelerators : This directory contains Shortcut keys.
Version Info : This directory contains version information of the file.

Viewing Resources:

U can view any resource embedded in the file. Simply expand the directory and click on the name of the resource.
Actually each resource contains 3 parts:

Resource Type
Resource Name
Resource Language

Resource Type : Its indicate that the resource is an AVI/Bitmap/Menu
/Cursor/Icon/String/etc.
Resource Name : It describes the name of a resource, no 2 resource can hv the same name.
Resource Language : Its the language used in the file. For ENGLISH its 1033.

Changing the Resources:

=> For Icon/Cursor/Bitmap:

1) Select the resource ( e.g. Bitmap -> 131 -> 1033 ).
2) Click on Action -> Replace Icon/Cursor/Bitmap....
3) It'll open a new window, click on Open file with new
Icon/Cursor/Bitmap button.
4) Select the desired resource in the OPEN dialog box and
click on Open button and then Replace.

=> For other resources like AVI:

Its a little bit different.

1.) Click on Action -> Replace Other Resource....
2.) It'll open a new window, click on Open file with new resource button.
3.) Select the file and click on Open button.
4.) Now u hv to give the required information for this resource,
which I mentioned. Its a little bit different.

continued.....

Resource Type
Resource Name
Resource Language

In type give the type of resource, e.g. if u r replacing AVI file then give the type as AVI.
In name give the exact name of the existing resource which u want to replace with this new one.
In language give 1033 for English.

5) And finally click on Replace button.

=> For Menus/Strings/Dialogs:

To change String/Menu/Dialog boxes, Select the desired resource, e.g., String Table -> 4 -> 1033, and make ur changes and then click on Compile Script button. It'll compile the script and will give ERROR if something goes wrong so that u can correct the problem!

Adding ur own Resources:

Adding new Bitmaps/Icons/Cursors/AVIs:

1) Click on Action -> Add a new Resource....
2) Click on Open file with new resource button.
3) Select the desired resource and click on Open button.
4) Give Resource Type/Name/Language.
(Remember: Resource Name should be different than the
existing resources.)
5) Click on Add Resource button.

Adding new Menu-items:

U can also add ur own Menu-items, like u can add extra menu (e.g., ur name) in Desktop Context Menu, etc.

1.) Goto desired menu, e.g., Menu -> 215 -> 1033, and add a
line anywhere inside POPUP "" or something like that in
following format:

MENUITEM "ur_desired_string", 12345, MFT_STRING, MFS_GRAYED | MFS_DEFAULT

Here:

"ur_desired_string" is the text which will be displayed on screen.
12345 is the the identifier, which must be different than other menuitems.
MFT_STRING describes that its a Menuitem with some text.
MFS_GRAYED disables our menuitem. U can also change it to MFS_ENABLED to enable it.
MFS_HILITE automatically select our menuitem. u can ignore it.
MFS_DEFAULT set our menuitem BOLD. u can also ignore it.

Actually u can only give MENUITEM "ur_desired_string", 12345 and Resource Hacker will automatically add other parts.

continued....

Adding Newly added Resources in Dialog Boxes:

Once u hv added ur own Icons/Bitmaps/AVIs, u may want to add them in dialog box so that they can be displayed when we open some dialog box (like RUN, Progress Dialog box, etc.).

1.) Goto the desired dialog box, in which u want to add ur own
resource, e.g., Dialog -> 1020 -> 1033.
2.) Right-click on the dialog box and select Insert Control option.
3.) It'll open a new window, where u'll see many controls,
like BITMAP, LABEL, ICON, BUTTON, SysAnimate32 (for AVIs), etc.
4.) Simply click on the desired control, like to use ur own added
Bitmap click on the BITMAP control or to use ur own added AVI click on SysAnimate32 control. U can also add Date/Time control by clicking on SysDateTimePick32 control.
5.) Don't forget to fill the Caption entry. Actually we hv to enter
the resource name in Caption so that our added resource can
be displayed on that place! e.g., if u hv added a Bitmap and
gave it name as 401, then give 401 in Caption.

PS: For AVI Control ( SysAnimate32 ), u hv to add # before the name in Caption. e.g., if the AVI name 144, then put #144 in Caption

6.) Finally click on OK button & Compile the script.
7.) U can change its position on the dialog box by simply dragging
it to ur desired position.

Using Scripts in Resource Hacker:

We can also use Resource Hacker from Command line w/o going thru its GUI and also can automate many repeatative tasks to save our time.[=)]

U can use the scripts in 2 forms:

1.) Single command
2.) Multiple commands

1.) Single Command:

Some useful commands with their format r as follows:

-add ExeFileName, ResultingFileName, ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName,
-addskip ExeFileName, ResultingFileName, ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName,
-addoverwrite ExeFileName, ResultingFileName, ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName,
-modify ExeFileName, ResultingFileName, ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName,
-extract ExeFileName, ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName,
-delete ExeFileName, ResultingFileName, ResourceType, ResourceName

Here:

ExeFileName : The original file which we want to edit in Resource Hacker
ResultingFileName : The name which we want to give when we save the file.
ResourceAddress : The resource address (like Bitmap location on our HDD).
ResourceType : The resource type (like Bitmap, AVI, etc.).
ResourceName : Resource name (like 131, 1020, etc.).

EX:- ResHacker.exe -addoverwrite explorer.exe, explorer1.exe, MyImage.bmp , bitmap, 143,

2.) Multiple commands

To use script first u hv to create a script file in notepad and then give following command:

ResHacker.exe -script ScriptFileName

Here: ScriptFileName is the name of the script file which u made in notepad.

continued....

[FILENAMES]
Exe=
SaveAs=
Log=

[COMMANDS]
-addoverwrite ResourceAddress, ResourceType, ResourceName

Here:

EXE= is the original file location
SaveAs= is the saved file location
Log= is the LOG file location which will store the log of the process

In [COMMAND] section, we give the commands which we want to execute.

U can omit the LOG entry, then Resource Hacker will automatically create a LOG file named "ResHacker.log".

Thats all for now guys! I hv tried to cover all points realted to Resource Hacker!
If u hv further queries, pls ask here. I'll try my BEST to answer them.

Command Prompt Shell Extension

Open Command Prompt Shell Extension

The Open Command Prompt Shell Extension adds an "Open Command Prompt" menu item to the context menus (right-click menus) in Windows Explorer so that you can open a command prompt in the selected directory (or directories) or in the current directory that you are viewing.

The Open Command Prompt Shell Extension is very lightweight (less than 16 KiB installed!), supports network paths, supports both x86-32 and x86-64, supports multiple language locales, and is open-source.

Screenshot
How is this different from Microsoft's Open Command Window Here PowerToy?

The Open Command Prompt Shell Extension was created primarily to address the shortcomings of the Open Command Window Here PowerToy. Improvements include:

1. The ability to open a command prompt in the directory that you are currently in by right-clicking on any empty screen space in the directory. This eliminates the need to navigate up a level in order to open a command prompt in the current directory.
2. Support for opening command prompts with UNC paths (directories on network shares).
3. Support for multiple languages.

Note: If you already have the Open Command Window Here PowerToy installed, you should uninstall it before installing the Open Command Prompt Shell Extension.
How is this different from BackgroundCMD?

The Open Command Prompt Shell Extension offers these improvements over BackgroundCMD:

1. All-in-one functionality: BackgroundCMD only opens command prompts for the current directory, so in order to open a command prompt for a subdirectory, it had to be combined the Open Command Window Here PowerToy.
2. Support for Unicode paths.
3. Support for 64-bit Windows.
4. Much smaller size: The final installed size is less than 16 KiB, and this was achieved without any sort of PE packing!

How is this different from the "Open Command Window Here" feature in Vista?

Windows Vista offers a similar built-in feature, but I personally prefer to use the Open Command Prompt Shell Extension for these reasons:

1. The built-in context menu option in Windows Vista only appears if the SHIFT key is held down while right-clicking. This can become tedious, so if you want this menu option to be available without holding down SHIFT, you will need to use this extension. To avoid the duplication of menu options, this extension will be automatically disabled when you SHIFT-right-click in Windows Vista (this does not affect versions of Windows prior to Vista).
2. The "Open Command Window Here" feature in Windows Vista handles UNC paths using the pushd command, which creates a temporary mapped drive. There are various advantages (e.g., fewer quirks and errors) and disadvantages (e.g., inability to navigate up) to using pushd.

Is this free?

Yes! The Open Command Prompt Shell Extension is open-source, licensed under a BSD-style license.
How do I get the Open Command Prompt Shell Extension?

The download link can be found at the top of this page. Download, unzip, and run the installer found inside (CmdOpenInstall.exe). The source code is included in the download package.

Note: If you already have the Open Command Window Here PowerToy installed, you should uninstall it before installing the Open Command Prompt Shell Extension.

(For advanced users) To run the installer in quiet (unattended) mode, run "CmdOpenInstall.exe /quiet", and to extract the files to the current directory without installing, run "CmdOpenInstall.exe /extract".
What languages are supported?

The following languages are supported:

* English
* ?? (??/??)
* Deutsch
* e??????? (translator: "XhmikosR")
* español
* français
* italiano (translators: "Davide" and "mf3imp")
* ??? (translator: "yumeyao")
* Nederlands
* Polski (translator: Adam Klos)
* português (PT/BR) (pt-BR translator: "0d14r3")
* ???????
* Türkçe (translator: "MrNxDmX")

Translations are welcome! Just translate this file and send me the translations.
Why "Open Command Prompt"?

After much deliberation, "Open Command Prompt" was chosen over the more common "Open Command Window Here" as the menu text for this extension. First, while the command prompt is referred to as the "command prompt" all throughout Windows, the Open Command Window Here PowerToy oddly decided to call it a "command window", leading an inconsistency in nomenclature. Second, the "Here" used in the PowerToy is redundant, since it is implied; after all, the other built-in menu items are "Open", "Explore" and "Search", not "Open Here", "Explore Here", and "Search Here". Finally, "Open Command Prompt" is shorter and does not stretch out the context menu as much.
Version History

* 2008/12/20 - 1.1.8
o Added Portuguese (pt-BR) translation. (translator: "0d14r3")
o Added Russian translation.
* 2008/12/17 - 1.1.7
o Added Polish translation. (translator: Adam Klos)
* 2008/12/12 - 1.1.6
o Added Greek translation. (thanks "XhmikosR"!)
* 2008/12/03 - 1.1.5
o Added Turkish translation. (thanks "MrNxDmX"!)
* 2008/12/02 - 1.1.4
o Added Japanese translation. (thanks "yumeyao"!)
o Changed the access keys for the Chinese translations
* 2008/11/27 - 1.1.3
o Added Dutch translation.
* 2008/10/27 - 1.1.2
o Eliminated the msvcp60.dll (C++ runtime library; STL) dependency.
* 2008/10/16 - 1.1.1
o Various minor improvements to the installer.
* 2008/10/13 - 1.1.0
o Unified installer: instead of using separate setup packages for 32-bit and 64-bit systems, there is now one single setup package for both platforms. The installer will take care of everything, simplifying distribution and installation. Note that, for Windows x64, the installer will install both the 32-bit and 64-bit binaries (any 32-bit application making use of shell components, such as a file picker dialog, would need the 32-bit extension, even if Windows is 64-bit).
o The self-installation function (DllInstall) has been improved, is more robust, and is less likely to fail.
o The installer now exclusively uses DllInstall and no longer relies on INF files; this resolves some issues that the old installer had with in-use file replacement during update installs.
o Added keyboard navigation access keys to the context menu item.
o Added Portuguese (pt-PT) translation.
* 2008/09/11 - 1.0.5
o The 64-bit build is now compiled with the PSDK compiler, which makes eliminating the static linking of the CRT possible. This significantly reduces the file size of the 64-bit version (its size is now comparable to that of the 32-bit build), and being able to use the same CRT as the host shell process conveys other benefits, including a reduced memory footprint (not that anyone running a 64-bit OS would ever notice a few kilobytes).
o The 32-bit build was version-bumped to 1.0.5 in order to keep the version numbers in sync, but no changes were made (the CRT was never statically-linked in the 32-bit build).
* 2008/09/04 - 1.0.4.2
o The 64-bit build is now compiled with VC9SP1 instead of VC8SP1.
o Fixed compile-time error if VC9 or newer is used to build the 32-bit source.
* 2008/09/02 - 1.0.4.1
o New: 64-bit build (requires a 64-bit version of Windows). The 32-bit build is unchanged.
* 2008/07/03 - 1.0.4
o Added Italian translation. (thanks "Davide" and "mf3imp"!)
* 2007/08/31 - 1.0.3
o Installation and uninstallation can now be invoked via standard DllInstall calls.
o Improved the installer.
* 2007/08/21 - 1.0.2
o Improved error checking.
* 2007/08/13 - 1.0.1
o Added German, Spanish, and Traditional Chinese translations.
* 2007/08/08 - 1.0.0
o Initial version.

Hack orkut passwords

Hack orkut passwords

With its popularity grows the need of hacking into some ones Orkut account. We are getting so many comments on several pages in this website on how to break into an Orkut account; how to break Orkut Password etc.As always our humble reply, we don’t endorse hacking. We will not help anyone out to break into Orkut account nor provide any help if they have forgotten the passwords.

One thing people forget is that Orkut just like any other web based service store the password in encrypted format and just not possible to figure out the password even with the help of employees who are working there. How is it possible? Without going into technical details, let us explain things in a simple way.

When you register for a web based service you provide the password; one thing most trusted websites does is that it encrypt the password provided by you. The encryption is not reversible ie no one can decode the string back to the original format.

Suppose you have the password “MyPassword” this password is stored in the Orkut (or any other server) in encrypted format… something like – MyPassword => khkjhd877e8q78e8634but3874@63. There are several encryption techniques available like MD5, SHA etc. These encryption algorithms are not reversible ie you can convert MyPassword to khkjhd877e8q78e8634but3874@63 but khkjhd877e8q78e8634but3874@63 can’t be converted back to MyPassword.

When ever you enter the user name and password, the website convert your password into Md5 or sha or what ever it is and cross check. So not even an Google employee can retrieve your password. Well, it can be reset.

Orkut passwords could be compromised only if you are

* Using a computer with a Keylogger installed
* Using a computer affected with some Trojan or virus
* Using other websites where you have used the same password and which is not encrypted

So next time before thinking about hijacking the friends Orkut account, remember it’s not that easy.
