Create Virus

Do you want to play a trick on your friends? Our shocking but harmless Virus is the best choice for you! Here's what to do:

Step
1. Read and understand the warnings!

2.Open up Notepad in Windows. You can do this by navigating to Start > Programs > Accessories > Notepad, or simply by entering notepad under Start > Run.

3.Copy and Paste the Code of the "virus" into Notepad

4.Click File -> Save as

5.Decide for a location to save the fake-virus. You should chose a location where the user won't find the file, so saving it on the desktop would be a bad idea!

6.Change ".txt" to "All files" in the file type drop-down menu

7.Chose a harmless filename. Replace the ".txt" at the with ".bat"

8.Click on save and close Notepad.


Now, that we have our Virus saved, we should prepare a decoy:

Right click on the desktop and go over to "new" then click "short cut".
For the location of the short cut chose our Virus.

Click next

Give the shortcut a name that your victim will click on. ("Music for free", "My Documents", "Critical Windows-Update" "Get Free Cinema-Tickets" or "Internet Explorer")
Click on "Finish"

Right click on the shortcut you have just made and chose "properties". Now click on the "chose icon" button and scroll through the list of icons.

Decide for one of the icons that fits well to the name, chose it by clicking on it and hit OK twice.

Shock your Victim



Now it's time to sit back and enjoy the show!

You should really try not to laugh before the computer shuts down! (Think of sth. said)

As the computer goes out, you should check whether your friend is okay and then you may start laughing and start the computer again.

Abort Shutdown-Countdown

Sometimes it might be necessary to stop the countdown before the computer shuts down. Here's how to:
Open the start menu.
Click Run
Type "shutdown.exe -a" and press enter/return.

Change a Computer Password Using Command Prompt

Ever thought of becoming an actual "hacker"? This article shows how to change a computer password and do other things using a command prompt. A command prompt is a command using the special built-in program that comes with every computer which allows you to do almost anything on a computer.

STEP
1. Open Command Prompt. If you don't know how, open the Start menu, go to Programs (or on Windows 2000 and up, all programs), go to Accessories, then you'll see Command Prompt, click it.

2. You'll see a black screen pop up.

3. Type in: "Net User"

4. It will then show you a detailed little chart of all the User Accounts on the computer.

5. Choose which account you want to hack.

6. Say it says the user accounts are: Owner, Administrator, John, Alice, Christopher, and Guest.

7. You choose Alice (Say you wanted to annoy your wife or girlfriend, I told you this would be a useful guide ;) ).

8. Now type: "Net User Alice", it'll give you A LOT of information about the account. This step isn't necessary, but it gives you information on other things you can do to the account, such as set it as innactive and delete it.

9. Type in: "Net User Alice *" It'll tell you to enter a password, then again to confirm it. This will either change the password or make a new one. This might not always work though.

10. Good Job! You've actually hacked an account! Now if Alice says anything, good luck with that, that's in the article "How to Ignore an Annoying Wife or Girlfriend"... if it exists.

TIPS
The heart-breaking truth is, you can only do this sort of thing on an Administrator's account.

To set an account innactive or active, here's the 2 ways:

Innactive: Type in: "Net User [username] set /INNACTIVE"
Active: Type in: "Net User [username] set /ACTIVE"

If you forget the Administrator's password on a Windows XP and below computer, go to safe mode using F5 (F8 on every other computer except XP), go to Safe Mode with Command Prompt, go to the secret Administrator account that only shows up in Safe Mode, and do the same thing.

On a Windows Vista computer, the secret Administrator's account is not in Safe Mode, you have to set it as active by typing in: "Net User Administrator set /ACTIVE".

How to Bypass School Website Proxy

This is a simple un-tested way to bypass the school website proxy using Dreamweaver MX or higher. This may not always work, but it is worth trying.
Note: This technique does not work on systems controlled from a main server.

1.Open Dreamweaver MX or higher and make a new PHP dynamic page

2.Save the file as anything you want to and save it to the desktop or again anywhere you want to

3. Go back to the Dreamweaver program and click on the icon "server debug" (it looks like a world with a lightning bolt on the top of it)

4.It will then come up with a new bar on the page with the location of the file, in here replace the file name with the website that you want to visit and you should go through

5. Use Dreamweaver as a browser from here.

6. Or to view google images without downloading search something then change the following in the address bar: the hI to a g and the word search to images.

Tips
Since proxies get blocked often you should join a proxy mailing list to keep getting fresh proxies daily.

How to Break a BIOS Password

DESTOP
Steep

1.Power off the computer and make sure that it is unplugged.

2.Open up your computer case. You need physical access to the motherboard to complete this procedure.

3.Find a circular, (mostly) silver metallic object on the motherboard. This is the CMOS battery.




4.CAREFULLY remove the CMOS battery, avoid touching it with your fingers, and leave it out for about 120 seconds. This will flush the CMOS memory which stores the BIOS password and all other configuration. (See Warnings)

5.Set the battery back into place and power on the computer.

6.The computer should then warn you that the CMOS configuration could not be found. You can either reconfigure it yourself or restore defaults. Restoring the default configuration should be fine.

7.You will notice that the BIOS password has been cleared and you can boot without it. You may reset the BIOS password to something else by going into the BIOS configuration and setting a new User Password (The Supervisor Password controls access to the BIOS, NOT the computer!)

for LAPTOP

1.Remember that laptops can be trickier, especially if it's a newer model. If it has a security chip on the motherboard forget about it. You either have to physically remove the chip or contact the mfg for the "master" password. If you can boot up off of a cd or floppy try any of these methods:

2.Create a Win98SE bootable media "or anything that lets you boot into MS-DOS" and boot off of it.

3.When the A:\> prompt appears type debug and press enter

4.You will then only see a "-".

5.Type o 70 2E "include the spaces" and press Enter.

6.Type o 71 ff "include the spaces" and press Enter.

7.Type q and press Enter.

8.Here are a list of common mfg backdoor passwords:
AWARD BIOS
AWARD SW, AWARD_SW, Award SW, AWARD PW, _award, awkward, J64, j256, j262, j332, j322, 01322222, 589589, 589721, 595595, 598598, HLT, SER, SKY_FOX, aLLy, aLLY, Condo, CONCAT, TTPTHA, aPAf, HLT, KDD, ZBAAACA, ZAAADA, ZJAAADC, djonet, %øåñòü ïpîáåëîâ%, %äåâÿòü ïpîáåëîâ%

AMI BIOS
AMI, A.M.I., AMI SW, AMI_SW, BIOS, PASSWORD, HEWITT RAND, Oder

9.Other passwords you may try (for AMI/AWARD or other BIOSes) - LKWPETER, lkwpeter, BIOSTAR, biostar, BIOSSTAR, biosstar, ALFAROME, Syxz, Wodj gvs

Tips

Depending on the manufacturer of your motherboard, you may be able to use what it is called a "backdoor password" to bypass the password problem. Try looking at the external links for possible passwords.

Remember that passwords are Case Sensitive. The last two passwords in the AWARD BIOS list are in Russian.

Sometimes the bios reset jumper has a "handle" and is colored a bright color to make it easy to locate. Also, look in your case near the bottom. If it is a manufactured computer then it probably came with a little sticker with the jumpers and the location of the reset jumper.

If you're really stuck, the PC manufacturer can often give out a "reset password" if you can prove you are the owner. This works with Dell but they usually charge.

Warnings

In rare cases, the battery may be soldered into the motherboard and very difficult to remove. If this is true, you may need to find a jumper near the battery that achieves the same result. If you don't know which jumper it is, you CAN test them all. Unplug (really unplug, not just power off) the computer, and start a methodical change in all the jumpers positions, change one, count to ten, change it back, move on the next. After completing the lot of them (on older motherboards this could take a while) plug the PS back in, and boot up. You may risk damaging your computer with this procedure if you are not careful.
Some notebooks such as IBM's ThinkPad render useless when the BIOS password is being tried to reset.
Don't just start pulling jumpers on the motherboard. Make sure you know where it was and in what position in case anything goes wrong put it back.
If you turn your computer on and it makes strange noises / beeps, you should contact the vendor, manufacture, or a tech guy to fix it.

Selecting and Buying a Computer

Choose Your First ComputerChoose Your First Computer

1. Make a budget. Think about how much money you are willing to pay for a computer

2.What purpose will it serve. If it is for basic applications like word processing, then look for a cheap model. If you want to play games, you'll need something with a fast processor, lots of RAM, a large hard drive, and good sound and graphics cards

3.Where will it be used. If you need to take it all over the place, you'll need a laptop. If you intend to leave it in the office or at home on the desk, then buy a desktop.

4.Who is going to use it? If it's for an office and you have to share it, you might need one with more memory and Windows 7 Professional or Ubuntu. If you will be the only one using it, and mostly for playing games, then Windows 7 Home Premium or Vista Home Basic will serve you well.

5.Choose an operating system.
Linux (Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, OpenSuse and Mandriva) is stable, fast and free.
Microsoft Windows (98, XP, Vista, 7) is the most popular platform in general and for gaming.
Mac OS X (Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard) is popular for creative endeavours and multimedia.

6.Choose the hardware Decide whether you want a desktop machine, a laptop that you can take with you, or a netbook. A netbook is a smaller version of the laptop but more portable and with fewer built-in devices such as CD and DVD drives.

7.Decide on the amount of memory Decide how much RAM memory you want your computer to have. Many software have a minimum RAM requirement in order to run. So if your software say it requires 2 GB of memory, and your computer has only one GB of memory, it will not run. The more RAM the better, but it will be more expensive. You should at least have 2 GB or more RAM, unless the only thing you are using the computer for is connecting to the internet (in which case you can do with only 1 GB).

8.Research. Scan the Internet, and become more knowledgeable. Compare prices, and whether the computer can be upgraded as needed. Then you are ready to order, either online, or in a computer store.

TIPS

*If you find a computer you like, compare all the prices. You don't want to pay £700 and find the same thing on eBay for £300.

*If you're only doing basic things like word processing, see if you can use a friend's computer, or go to a library.
