How a Hardware Keylogger Works

Hi, Hackers-Team Reader. Today I will explain how hardware keyloggers works. If you dont know what is "Keyloggers" please have to look to our previous post on Keylogger-Basics. However there are also hardware keyloggers which perform basically the same function except in the form of an external hardware device as opposed to an internal installation on your PC. The more recent hardware keyloggers are very small and often go undetected since they do not utilize any software or driver installation.

Hardware Keyloggers Defined

Hardware keyloggers work externally to track keystrokes, record conversations, monitor email, and track document creation. The more recent hardware keyloggers are very small

Types of Softwares

Software, by definition, is the collection of computer programs, procedures and documentation that performs different tasks on a computer system. The term 'software' was first used by John Tukey in 1958. At the very basic level, computer software consists of a machine language that consists of groups of binary values, which specify processor instructions. The processor instructions change the state of computer hardware in a predefined sequence. Briefly, computer software is the language in which a computer speaks. There are different types of computer software. What are their types? Let us see.

Types of Software's

Computer software is a general term used to describe a collection of computer programs, procedures and documentation that perform some task on a computer system. The term includes application software such as word processors which perform productive tasks for users, system software such as operating systems, which interface with hardware to provide the necessary services for application software, and middle-ware which controls and co-ordinates distributed systems.

Windows setup on USB Disk

In a recent blog, “10 Cool Things You Can Do with a USB Flash Drive” I presented 10 tasks that you can perform with a flash drive, including booting an operating system. However, I have since discovered a technique how you can use a USB flash drive to install Windows 7.

This technique is very cool for two reasons: First, a flash drive is much more responsive than an optical drive, since it doesn’t rely on physically moving components, so the installation procedure will be faster. Second, it provides an easy way to install Microsoft Windows 7 on a system that doesn’t have a DVD drive, such as a netbook.

Getting started

Of course, in order to employ this technique you’ll need a USB flash drive that is big enough to hold the contents of the Windows 7 DVD. The Windows 7 DVD is about 2.5GB, and you can expect that the DVD will be at least that if not more. For my test system I am using a 4GB USB flash drive.

Keep in mind that the procedure we will use will completely reformat the USB flash drive. So you want to make sure that you back up any data that you have on the drive before you begin.

The systems on which you want to install Windows 7 via the USB flash drive have to be able to be configured to boot from a USB drive. Most new systems have the capability to boot from a USB flash drive, and the operation can usually be configured in the BIOS or by simply pressing a certain key during bootup. You’ll need to check your specific hardware in order to be sure.

Using the DiskPart utility

As you may know, the DiskPart utility is a command-line version of the Disk Management snap-in and is designed to allow you to manage disks, partitions, or volumes from within scripts or directly from a command prompt. We can use the DiskPart command in Windows Vista or in Windows 7 to configure a USB flash drive to be a bootable device. (Keep in mind that Windows XP’s DiskPart command is unable to create a bootable USB flash drive.)

To begin, connect your USB flash drive to a computer on which you will be preparing the drive. For my example, I’ll be using a Windows 7 system.

Now, locate the command Prompt shortcut on the Start menu, right-click on it, and select the Run as Administrator command. Then, respond appropriately to the UAC. You can now launch the DiskPart utility by typing DiskPart on the command line. You’ll then see the DISKPART prompt, as shown in Figure A.

Figure A

DiskPart has its own command-line environment complete with a special prompt.

Now that you’re in the DiskPart environment, you’ll need to locate the USB flash drive

10 cool things you can do with a USB

Transporting your data is probably the most common use for a USB flash drive. But there’s a world of other things you can do with these handy pocket-size drives. Here are 10 ways you can use that USB flash drive to do more than just move data.

1: Run portable applications

In addition to storing your data, you can run portable applications from a USB flash drive. For example, OpenOffice, which is a complete office suite that includes a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation tool, drawing package, and database, is available as a portable application. Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird are also available as portable applications. When you combine the office suite with the ability to surf the Web and check email, you’ll be able to take your most vital computing applications with you wherever you go — right in your pocket.

If that’s not enough, you can choose other applications to install on your USB flash drive from PortableApps.com (Figure A). You can even install an entire prepackaged suite of applications that includes such things as an audio player, games, an antivirus utility, and a handy menu system.

Figure A

The PortableApps.com suite comes with a menu system to allow you to easily access your portable applications.

2: Boot an operating system

If you want to do more than just run your own applications, you might want to consider

How to Hack Softwares to use them Forever ?

Today we will show you that "How to Hack Software's to use them Forever ?". This is really a useful article, because we all use hundreds and thousand of software's, which of most are highly paid. :P

So, how to use them Freely ??

Most of us are familiar with many software's that run only for a specified period of time in the trial mode. Once the trial period is expired these software stop functioning and demand for a license - key purchase. But there is a way to run the softwares and make them function beyond the trial period. Isn't this interesting ?

What is USB malware and how to fix it.

As the use of USB or Pendrive has become more and more widespread, so malware has began to use them as a way to spread from machine to machine. While this is a problem for end users, the real danger is with IT professionals, who might use the same USB stick in dozens of computers in a single day, will often be logged in with administrative privileges, and will have access to important machines.

This articles is aimed at those professionals, and how they can minimize the risk of passing an infection onto other machines.

How it Works ?

Malware uses two main techniques to spread through Pendrive (USB). The first, and less serious, is infecting executable files on the Pendrive (USB), so that when they are run on another machine, the infection moves with them.

The more common, and more dangerous, is to spread via the `autorun.inf` file, which Windows automatically executes when the drive is connected, meaning that no user interaction is needed. Conficker has been getting a lot of attention recently, and this was

Can You Make Folder Named 'CON' ?

Nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named as “CON”. 

This is something pretty cool…and unbelievable… At Microsoft the whole Team couldn't answer why this happened!

TRY IT NOW !!

"Why we can't create a folder with name 'CON' " ?, and I’m sure most of us also try to make folder "CON" just now after reading the title of article ! if no, then go and 1st try it . If you try creating a folder named CON,  it’ll get renamed automatically to New Folder. But there is no mystery behind this, and the team at Microsoft very well knows the reason for this. :-)

Why is it not possible to create a folder named CON ? Before we proceed further, let me tell you a small secret you can’t even create a folder named CON, NUL, PRN and AUX and many others. The reason you can’t create a folder with these names is because these are reserved keywords used by DOS. The below screen-shot showing a list of reserved keywords in DOS.

If you try creating a folder with any of these names, the name automatically changes back to the default “New Folder”. And this is what has caused the confusion. Instead of automatically renaming the folder, had an explanatory warning message popped up.

You can actually create a folder named CON !!
There is actually a way to create a folder named CON, or any other name from the above

Linux and Windows : Who Better ?

Microsoft Windows is a family of operating systems by Microsoft. They can run on several types of platforms such as servers, embedded devices and, most typically, on personal computers. Microsoft first introduced an operating environment named Windows in November 1985 as an add-on to MS-DOS in response to the growing trend of graphical user interfaces (GUI) popularized by the Macintosh. Microsoft Windows eventually came to dominate the world's personal computer market.

Linux is a free Open Source Operating System, based on UNIX. It is available from many vendors with optional paid for support and provides an increasingly viable alternative to the Win 32 platform. C++ and C# compilers are all available on the Linux platform.

Many a times Windows users talk about what Windows can do but Linux can’t. To be fair, they also need to know what Linux can do but Windows can’t.

Reasons why Linux is better than Windows

· Linux doesn't have the virus problems : Even Microsoft’s CEO Steve Balmer couldn’t clean Windows Viruses. Still not convinced? Its not that there aren’t any viruses for Linux

What is a Proxy Server and How to use it for Security

Hi Everyone,

Make Cookie Stealer PHP Script

How does a cookie stealer work. There are two components in a cookie stealer: the sender and the receiver.

The sender can take many forms. In essense, it's just a link to the receiver with the cookie somehow attached. It can sometimes be difficult to find a way to implement the sender.

The receiver, as the name suggests, is a device which receives the cookie from the sender. It can also take several forms, but the most common is that of a PHP document, most commonly found residing on some obscure webserver.

Email Spamming

Basics of working of Email


Email stands for Electronic Mail. Email sending and receiving is controlled by the Email servers.Email service providers configure Email Server before anyone can Sign into his or her account and start communicating digitally.Users from across the world register in to these Email servers and setup an Email account.


Email Travelling Path :


Let’s say we have two Email providers, one is gmail.com and other is yahoo.com, ABC is a registered user in gmail.com and XYZ is a registered user in yahoo.com.

• ABC signs in to his Email account in gmail.com, he then writes a mail to the 
  xyz@yahoo.com and sends the message.
• But what happens behind the curtains, the Email from the computer of abc@gmail.com 
  is forwarded to the Email server of gmail.com. Server of gmail.com then looks for 
  yahoo.com on the internet and forwards the Email of the yahoo.com for the account of 
  XYZ@yahoo.com. Yahoo server puts that email in that account.
• XYZ then sits on computer and signs in to her Email account.Now she has the message in 
  her Email inbox.

What is Email Spamming and Email Bombing ?
