World Of Tricks

This Simple Tutorial will Save you from Spam mails and Hacking Tricks used by Many hackers.
As you know you can hide your primary email address from non-friends but if by mistake you add a unknown person to your friend list, then he/she will be able to see your primary email address which you use to login. He can send dangerous emails (keyloggers etc.) and steal your Orkut account. There are two Methods to be safe:

1. Changing Primary Email:
Go To Edit Profle Page of your profile, then click on COntact tab and change your Primary Email address to some other id, which you don't use much. Your login id will remain same but your friends will see your other email id.

2. Using Fake EMail id:
It is the most effective way of hiding email id, but it requires a new account, If you have some larger communities and want safety, then follow this method:
* Create a new Orkut account, On the Sign Up page enter any id which does not
exist like yourname@yourname.com, me@orkutaccount.com etc.
* Then after entering other details, you will be redirected to your home page
and with a message "Verify Your Email", Just igonore it and do as stated below
* Now Go to google.com, you will see your fake id on the top-right
corner yourname@yourname.com, You can see "My Account" Option there.
* Go To "My Account Page" and create a gmail id from there. (You can see it
under Try Some More)
* Done! You have your new login id but your friends will still see your fake
id :| Enjoy

There is a severe security risk in Firefox, that most people aren’t even aware of. All the passwords stored or “remembered” in the browser are accessible to anyone who happens to get on their computer (both physically or with hacking tools). Just try this in Firefox:Show saved passwords.


1. Go to Tools -> Options and select the Security tab.
2. Press the Show Passwords button in the middle-right of the window.
3. You should now see a list of sites and your usernames stored. Press Show Passwords again.

See what I mean? Anyone who has access to your computer could have a pretty good “look” at those…

The way to protect yourself from this danger, is to either use a special software such as KeePass to store passwords, or to use Firefox’s own Master Password option (MPW). To enable it, go back to the Security tab in the Options window and check the box Use a master password. Set the Master Password and you’re a lot safer!

Now, every time you start your browser and log in somewhere, Firefox will ask for the Master Password. You won’t be asked for it any more. It will also ask the MPW when trying to view saved passwords the way I explained earlier or when doing anything else with your personal data. This tool will really help you in remembering passwords, as I hope every one of yours is different… Or it’d better be…

A bad guy can also use a plugin or script to view saved passwords in Internet Explorer, but there is no Master Password tool to protect yourself with. Another point for Firefox.

Protect Urself !
Follow These Simple Guidelines n u are done

1. Stop using Internet Explorer and make the switch to Opera, it's more secure, plain and simple.

2. Get Spybot Search and Destroy or Spyware Doctor and immediately update it.

3. Get Adaware SE and immediately update it.
(Use both as a 1-2 punch on infected client computers and between the two there's not much they won't kill)

4. Update your anti virus

5. Boot into safe mode and run all three scans

6. While the scans are going check your registry (Click start --> Run and type regedit to get intot he registry) and look in HKEY_CurrentUser/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/run & HKEY_Local_Machine/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/run. Verify that all programs listed are legitimate and wanted.

7. If or when your antivirus scan comes across anything, search for that file name in your registry and delete it.

8. Use explorer to go to the windows/system32 folder and sort by date. If you haven't already done so, make sure you can see the entire file names. click Tools --> Folder Options and unclick the box labeled "Hide extensions for known file types" and under Hidden files and folders click "Show hidden files and folders." However, make sure you choose "Hide protected operating system files" so you don't accidentally remove anything that would cripple your computer.. You are looking for recent files with names ending with .exe and .dll that look suspicious. Major culprits will have gibberish names such as alkjdlkjfa.exe.

9. Once you can get clean scans in safe mode, reboot in normal mode and scan all over again. If you can't get a clean scan in regular mode then you have something more persistant that could take more research.

10. Make sure your firewall doesn't have strange exceptions.

11. If you suspect anything that is going wrong with your computer is the action of a stalker, on a more secure system change all your passwords.

12. If your system has been specifically targeted and hacked you can never be 100% sure that your system is no longer compromised so start with 11, make backups of personal files on the infected system and format and re-install Windows.

Good luck!

As some Microsoft Operating System geeks know, you can type many more characters than are on a standard keyboard by using the ALT+NUMPAD combination technique. For example, by holding down the ALT key, typing 234 on the number pad, then releasing ALT gives you the O character. I'm writing this article mostly because when I search around for information on the topic of ALT+Number key combos I find pages that are lacking in details. Most of the pages I found are coming from the angle of using ALT+NUMPAD combinations as shortcuts for typing in non-English languages, but I have another use for them. Using ALT+NUMPAD can make for some very ugly passwords to crack. These odd characters have two major advantages over normal keystrokes:

1. They are unlikely to be in someone's dictionary or brute force list. Try brute forcing a password like "ace of ?s" or "I am the a and the O".

2. Some hardware key loggers will not log these odd characters. Your mileage may vary on this as some key loggers can, so don't rely on it to keep you 100% safe.

These days Agents spy on you everywhere, in college, at work, maybe a trojan virus on your home PC which keylogs your paswords and mails it to someone else. If you think you are being logged, try this:

Whenever you have to type a password, never type the complete password in one go, ie, if your password is WINDOWS, u should type NDOW, then move cursor to start of the password field using the mouse ONLY, then type WI, then move cursor to end using the mouse and type S. This way the logger will record your keystrokes as [ndowwis] instead of [WINDOWS].

Haha, keylogger fooled. Use this trick whenever you login from a Cyber café or any Computer that is not yours.

Note :- This trick may not be working with firefox.

Keyloggers are specially devised programs that are installed inside a computer via a Trojan, a virus or a worm. Once inside, the Keylogger will auto execute and start recording all the key strokes made by the computer user. Once a determined period of time has gone by, the Keylogger will send the keystroke information to the hacker who sent this infectious software.

Then the hacker will start searching key combinations that can lead him to determine the password for determined web pages. This simple and effective method is a favorite among hackers since it can provide them with lots of private information from their victims.

Many computer users have more than one email account, especially if they use the messenger services from multiple providers, like Microsoft's Hotmail, Yahoo's Email or AOL email. It doesn't matter if you have one or many email accounts, every one of them may be a victim of a hacker. Even with the security measures imposed by the companies, Yahoo password hacking or hotmail hacking still exist. And it's very improbable that will disappear.

So, if you want to protect yourself from people who are hacking yahoo accounts or whose whole purpose in life is to do some MSN hacking, then increase the number of special characters in your password and try not to access your email account from a computer that is not yours. And that goes to IM's too. The ability for hacking yahoo messenger or any other IM provider it's a latent danger for all of us.

Some of the examples of Keyloggers are :
Golden Keylogger
Elite Keylogger
Perfect keyloggger
Ardmax Keylogger
Win-Spy Keylogger
Family Keylogger
and many more…..
