How to Hack Computer Passwords


Here are 2 ways to change passwords on a Windows XP computer if you have forgot or don't know the password.

Steps

Know that if you are still logged on to the Administrator account you can change user profiles using the following steps:
,
Go to the green "Start Button" and click "Run" then in the text box type "cmd" without the quotes.
Type net user then press enter
Then again type "Net user Compaq_owner" then press Enter
To change password press enter 2 times
Reset password to what ever you want.

Now if you are Logged out of the computer and cannot figure out the password at the start up screen, do the following:

Restart the computer and toggle the F5 button.
You will get screen that will ask you if you want to boot with command prompt (that is one way) or boot in safe mode without command prompt.

Notice that the computer will boot in safe mode in a small window and you will see a menu that asks which account you want to access. We know that the other accounts you can't get into but there will be a new account called computer administrator.
Click computer administrator and go to settings/control panel/user accounts.
Remove password.
Print out this page and have on hand for reference if you forget the steps.



Tips
To practice bypassing passwords for speed make a password you know and restart the computer and get the timing right for the boot F5 menu.
Speed, Speed, Speed the faster you can do these simple steps and get in and out the better.
Don't tell people that you can get in their computer, just get in and leave them some goodies of some kind. Be creative and have fun.

Press Ctrl-Alt-Del twice at the login menu to pull up NT style login to bypass the process of booting to a "Safe Mode".

How to Get Rid of Junk Mail


Is your mailbox running over, full of stuff you don't want? Junk mail wastes tremendous amounts of paper. It also piles up on your table, wastes your time, and competes for your attention. With a small investment of time, you can stop the flow at its source. Here's how.

Steps

Write to the mail preference service (US) or the Mailing preference service (UK). These do-not-mail lists are maintained by the major marketing associations that maintain and distribute the major mailing lists, but they do work. The US mail preference service will charge you one dollar ($1) to add your name to their opt-out list.

Get rid of credit card solicitations in the US, by phoning 1-888-5 OPT OUT (or 1-888-567-8688). It is an automated number. Listen to the options carefully. It's well worth calling -- the opt-out is good for 5 years, or you can request to be permanently removed from their lists. This one phone call tells all four major credit reporting agencies to stop sending credit card offers. You can also make the request (5-year and permanent) using their online form.

Call your credit card companies and ask them to stop sending you cash advance checks. Even if they come (conveniently) with your bill each month, cash advances usually start accruing interest immediately, so it's not a good idea to use them. If you do receive them and don't plan to use them, you should destroy them.

Call individual catalog companies and ask them to remove you from their mailing lists. Sometimes it will be the same toll-free number that you would call to make an order; sometimes it will be a separate "customer service" number. Look around on the back cover and the order form. Occasionally, the customer service people will ask why you want to be removed. Simply explain that you are not interested in the products offered. Do have the catalog, or at least the mailing label from it handy when you call. Often they will request a tracking number or other code printed there.

Go after individual senders. Some items are sent in such bulk that they go to every resident on a postal route. These are addressed to "Resident," "Our Friends At," or some variant. Your postal carrier cannot, by law, determine what you consider "junk mail". All "resident" mail must be delivered as addressed. You must contact individual mailers to have your address removed from their database. Look around on mailers for return addresses and phone numbers. Here are quick links to some common ones.

America Online: phone 1-800-605-4297.

ADVO (responsible for the blobs of sales circulars and the little card with the missing children): Follow the link.
Val-Pak coupons: follow the link.

Publisher's Clearinghouse: phone 1-800-645-9242 or email mailto:service@pchmail.com with your full address and instructions to remove from mailing list.

American Family Sweepstakes: phone 1-800-237-2400.

Pennysaver or Potpurri: phone 1-800-422-4116 and leave a detailed message with the full address, including ZIP code, as it appears on the mailer.
Stop all mail not addressed to you:
If you are getting first class mail for a former resident, you can write Return to Sender/Not at this address on the envelope and drop that envelope right in the mail box.

If you are getting bulk mail for a former resident, you may have to follow the above steps.

Place a sign by your mailbox that reads "No Free Papers":
Free Papers are another form of junk mail that often plagues our front lawns. Many of the people who deliver free papers will simply stop once the resident has placed a sign near their mailbox that that reads "No Free Papers".


Tips
It's a good idea to perform the first two steps even if you don't do the rest. They will stop the greatest amount of mail with the smallest investment of time. Besides, having credit card offers sitting in your mailbox invites identity theft. If you do decide someday to apply for a credit card, they're not hard to find even without the junk mail.

Avoid placing your address on surveys, raffles, and product warranty cards. If you do write your address or phone number, write alongside it something like, "Please do not sell or distribute my information, nor add to mailing lists."
When filling out forms online, read privacy policies and watch for opt-out boxes.

Mail-order businesses, especially printing houses that print checks, return address labels, and other stationery, often send other mail and sell the addresses of their customers. If you order from one of these places, clearly state your preference.
If you're curious about how junk mail spreads, intentionally misspell a name on a survey form or something of that nature. You'll get more junk mail, not less, but it's a simple experiment to see who's sharing your information. Keep a record of which misspelling you have given to which company, lest you forget.

It's generally not necessary to send in warranty cards or "register" a warranty for the warranty to be valid, regardless of what the card may imply.
If you do receive junk mail, do one of two things about it. Recycle it immediately, or call or write somebody about getting off the list.
Keep a recycling bin or trash can by your mailbox or wherever you sort mail.
Recognize that most companies sending direct mail are happy to take disinterested people off their lists. It costs them money to send you a thick, shiny catalog.

You may be told that it could take a couple of mailing cycles for mail to stop coming. This is a standard disclaimer you should take at face value.
If you are too busy to do the above steps yourself, you can take a shortcut by hiring a service to do them for you. A service like greendimes.com will remove your name and others in your household from direct mail lists, unsolicited credit card offers, as well as the catalogs that you selectively choose to unsubscribe from. They will revisit the direct mailers to keep you off the lists and plant a tree for you every month. The cost of a Green Dimes membership is a dime a day or $36/year.

Request your name be eliminated from the county tax database. Many companies target specific areas based on neighborhood subdivisions or home values. By making your information confidential in the county and state databases you may eliminate quite a bit of junk mail.



Warnings
You shouldn't have to spend money to get rid of junk mail. The junk mail removal kits you may see for sale generally don't offer anything you can't do on your own.

Sending junk mail back in the reply envelope may feel good, but it is not a particularly effective way to get off mailing lists. It is better simply to request to be removed.

Don't be rude to the person who answers the phone, even if you're mad about receiving something. He or she is paid to answer the phone (and is generally paid very little). This person is not personally responsible for your receiving it. But do, if necessary, be persistent, in addition to being kind.

Any offer that looks too good to be true, probably is. If something seems fishy, read the fine print, research it carefully, or simply pass it by. You may not really have won a million dollars, even if the magazine ordering materials make it seem as though you have.
Always make sure the mail "is" junk.

Customize Multiboot Startup Options in Windows


Edit or create a startup menu that lets you choose which operating system to boot into in multiboot systems, or create a menu that lets you choose different startup options for your single operating system if you have only XP installed.

If you've installed another operating system (in addition to XP) on your system, your PC starts up with a multiboot menu, which allows you to choose which operating system you want to run. The menu stays live for 30 seconds, and a screen countdown tells you how long you have to make a choice from the menu. After the 30 seconds elapse, it boots into your default operating system, which is generally the last operating system you installed.

You can customize that multiboot menu and how your PC starts by editing the boot.ini file, a hidden system file, to control a variety of startup options, including how long to display the menu, which operating system should be the default, whether to use the XP splash screen when XP starts, and similar features. And as you'll see later in this hack, you can also use the file to create a startup menu that will allow you to choose from different versions of your operating system—for example, one that you'll use for tracking down startup problems, and another for starting in Safe Mode.

The boot.ini file is a plain text file found in your root C:\ folder. You might not be able to see it, because it's a system file, and if you can see it, you might not be able to edit it, because it's a read-only file. To make it visible, launch Windows Explorer, choose View > Tools > Folder Options > View and select the radio button "Show Hidden Files and Folders." To make it a file you can edit, right-click on it in Windows Explorer, choose Properties, uncheck the Read-Only box, and click OK.

Editing Files :
To edit the file, open it with a text editor such as Notepad. Following is a typical boot.ini file for a PC that has two operating systems installed on it—Windows XP Home Edition and Windows 2000 Proffessional:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home
Edition" /fastdetect
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT="Windows 2000 Professional" /

Fastdetect :
As you can see, there are two sections in the file: [boot loader] and [operating systems]. To customize your menu and startup options, edit the entries in each section. Before editing boot.ini, make a copy of it and save it under a different name (such as boot.ini.old), so that you can revert to it if you cause problems when you edit the file.

Following are details about how to edit the entries in each section:
[boot loader]
This section controls how the boot process works; it specifies the default operating system and how long a user has to make a selection from a boot menu, if a boot menu has been enabled. The timeout value specifies, in seconds, how long to display the menu and wait for a selection before loading the default operating system. If you want a delay of 15 seconds, for example, enter 15 for the value. Use a value of 0 if you want the default operating system to boot immediately. If you want the menu to be displayed indefinitely and stay onscreen until a selection is made, use a value of -1. The default value specifies which entry in the [operating system] section is the default operating system. (The default value is used even if there is only one operating system in the [operating system] section.) To change the default operating system, edit the setting, in our example, to
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT

So, in our example, if you change the menu settings so that the screen appears for 10 seconds before loading the default operating system, and the default operating system is Windows 2000 Professional, the section reads:
[boot loader]
timeout=10
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINNT
[operating system]

This section specifies which operating systems are present on the computer, and detailed options for each one. XP uses the Advanced RISC Computing (ARC) path to specify the location of the boot partition. In our example, the ARC path is:
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS

The first parameter, which identifies the disk controller, should be 0. The second parameter, the disk parameter, should also be 0. The rdisk parameter specifies the disk number on the controller that has the boot partition. The numbers start at 0. So, if you have three hard disks installed and the second hard disk has the boot partition, the setting is rdisk(1). The partition parameter identifies the partition number of the boot partition. Partitions start with the number 1. The final section, which in our example is \WINDOWS, specifies the path to the folder where the operating system is installed.
To the right of the ARC path in the example is ="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /fastdetect. The words within quotes are what will appear on the boot menu next to the entry. To customize the text on the menu you can change these words to whatever you wish—for example, "My Favorite Operating System." The /fastdetect switch disables the detection of serial and parallel devices, which allows for faster booting.

Why Does The Cursor Freezes Up On The Computer


The answer is pretty simple. All computer crashing and hanging problems occur because of similar reasons.

Not just the cursor but also windows, programs and everything can crash if your computer is not up to date. Or has a lot of junk files, downloads, pictures and useless information. Or you do not do any computer maintenance. (It does not refer to cleaning your keyboard).

Steps to take now:

Clean the Junk from your computer by following:

Removing temporary internet files using Disk cleanup.

Removing unwanted (you do not use) folders, files, shortcuts, software, games, programs, icons, images, videos, downloads and all you can find on your computer that is useless. However delete only things you that you know they are safe to be removed.

That should not only fix the cursor that hangs but also improve your computer performance. Cleaning your computer, maintaining it in good shape will ensure it never crashes and works at its best.

Your cursor freezes when the computer has problems. If problems occur often it is because your computer is not at its best performance.

In rare cases it can be a spyware/adware or some critical objects. So you need to scan your computer with an anti adware and spyware software and also with an antivirus software.

Temporary Solution

1) Click Start, then Click Control Panel

2) Double Click Mouse

3) Enable the cursor trail

You will be able to see your mouse, even after the original cursor freezes on screen.

Steps that can fix the problem.

This may also solve your problem. ONLY do if you are sure that you know how.

1) Right Click on MyComputer icon. Then Click Properties.

2) Click on Hardware Tab, then Click on Device Manager.

3) Uninstall your mouse AND keyboard. Connect your mouse directly to the USB.

Then reboot your computer (restart) and let the mouse reinstall automatically.

Keep your computer in shape and you will have less problems.

Half a Million Computers Infected With 'malware' in Just Seven Days


Internet analysts are warning surfers to be on their guard after a booby-trapped file outbreak
Experts are warning internet users to be on their guard after more than half a million computers were infected with a single piece of malicious software.

In just seven days more than 530,000 instances of a single booby-trapped file have been spotted by analysts at internet security company McAfee, leading them to claim it is the biggest outbreak for several years.

The program works by posing as an ordinary media download, piggybacking on the draw of movies such as the recent St Trinian's film or pop acts such as Girls Aloud. Instead of finding the video or song they are expecting, however, victims are fooled into infecting their computers with a secret program which then bombards them with adverts.

Toralv Dirro, a security strategist at McAfee's Avert Labs, said it was the most successful piece of malicious code in three years - but that things could have been much worse. "We're lucky that this is relatively benign," he said. "We're worried that other people might use the same system to seed a more damaging piece of malware - it may be a precedent that is used by somebody else."

The technique, known as a Trojan horse, is common, but the latest variant appears to have been more successful than many of its counterparts. This could be because it was first planted on huge filesharing networks such as eDonkey and Limewire, which are used by millions of people to share music, movies and video files.

"It's pretty much impossible for us to find out where it was injected into the system, or track it back to find out who is benefiting," admitted Dirro. "At the moment we have no idea who is responsible, and this is data we cannot easily get."

Filesharing sites are a regular haunt for the writers of malicious software, but have also been used by some media companies to catch illegal downloaders in the act.

Last year a US company, MediaDefender, was discovered to be deliberately seeding popular networks with poor-quality videos and decoy music files in an attempt to reduce the popularity of peer-to-peer systems. But Dirro said that there was no indication the latest outbreak was the result of such action. "Most likely it is somebody involved in the advertiser's affiliate program, and they make some small amount of money every time the software is installed," he said.
