what would determine the related topics? if it’s just stuff in the same category you can do that easily
im pretty sure you could just include headlines in the full news template - but just to be safe let’s make an actual mod for it

find:
CODE if(!$found){
echo(”

Can not find an article with id: “. @(int) htmlspecialchars($id).”
“);
$CN_HALT = TRUE;
break 1;
}
add after:
CODEecho “”;

obviously you can change the attributes of the iframe, or the show_news.php
if you need it to be certain colors or something make a file in the cute news folder called headlines.php (or something) and tell it to include show_news.php with those variables (see readme) then apply coloring and it’ll show up

Given that application software protection is necessary, what form and function should it take? There are three principal forms of protection: watermarking, obfuscation, and application performance degradation. These techniques perform three main functions: detection of attempts to pirate, misuse, or tamper with software, protection of software against those attempts, and alteration of the software to ensure that its functionality degrades in an undetectable manner if protection fails. These defenses are required on hardware ranging from single processors to small computer clusters to traditional supercomputers to wide-area distributed computing.

A Hacking Awareness Announcement By Kalpesh Sharma

Takeaways
Truth behind “Ethical Hacking”.
Fact behind “Ankit Fadia”.
Be Aware while choosing.

Passion or Madness: Now days, it has become a passion to learn about hacking and information security. Sometimes I do not understand that whether it is a passion or a kind of madness. This passion has resulted due to several news articles, media stories and the excitement showing hacking related thrills in films. But, on the other hand there is a fact also that very few peoples know anything in-depth about the topic of hacking and information security. So, I would suggest that without adequate knowledge please do not get mad behind passion. Sometimes this passion may become dangerous from the legal point of view. There is nothing wrong to gain expertise, but there is need to realize a fact about incorrect issues behind hacking. I will come to this topic in depth, later in the same chapter.
Be Alert and Aware: Do you think that hacking is an expert level work? Do you think that information security and hacking are one and same things? If yes! Then you are absolutely wrong. Many children in the age group of 14-16 years are having sufficient knowledge to hack any website or collect important data facts from the internet. So, internet being the big source of information it’s a child game to perform hacking related activities. Many hackers whose aim is to just earn money from you, they give seminars and workshops along with misguide you that, “learn hacking in an ethical way for a brilliant career”. But, I am not going to explain in this way, to any of you. Instead, I would like to explain the fact in a positive way with a positive attitude. A teacher’s task is to show right path to students and not misguide them for gaining their personal benefits. So I would suggest that instead of going for the knowledge of hacking, gain the knowledge by learning something, which is said to be an expert level job. And this expert level job is known as information security expertise in technical terms. Hope you might have understood the difference between hacking (not expert level job) and information security (expert level job) from this topic. So, be alert from such misguidance.

Other then passion, one more side of coin also exists. Many institutes and independent peoples call themselves hacker and/or information security experts. But the reality behind their expertise and skills gets displayed in front of non-technical peoples and the victims who undergo for training, courses, certifications, seminars and workshop with such types of self-claimed hackers or institutes, when such victims and non-technical peoples realize that they are not satisfied for which they have spent time and money. The actual reality behind fooling is that the peoples who undergo for such seminars, workshops, courses, etc. most probably undergo through a psychology that, “the person or institute from which we will receive knowledge during the training sessions is an expert or is providing quality education as he was published by media agencies or that it’s a branded name in market for related subject talent or that he is an author of any book”. I believe in practical, official and those tasks or actions for which evidence lies in front of my eyes. Thus, I am trying to explain to everyone that always be alert and aware, so that your hardly earned income does not get spend in such unnecessary waste of time.

I will give you my own example here! I have several articles about me in various newspapers and media agencies, but this doesn’t mean that I am showing you the right path or that I am an expert. For example may be possible that I am a hacker, but this does not prove that I am an expert. So, expert level job is a totally different matter. The explanation about difference between hacking and expertise will come in next chapters So, first check out the level of my knowledge, how much practically I am able to prove my expertise, whether I am official & legal while undergoing for such tasks and finally the evidence part that whatever actions I undertake are proved right in front of eyes, instead of just talking theoretically. Always confirm yourself first, that you are learning with right person or institute or just wasting your time and money. May be possible that peoples might be receiving fees from you and in turn give you the knowledge of something(any other subject or topic about information technology field), which is not even single percent part of hacking or information security related topics. This happens most probably with non-technical peoples or fresher in information technology field.

False Publicity: Secondly, confirm that you are at least gaining the knowledge up to a level for which you have paid a particular amount. Don’t just go behind false publicities before you confirm yourself and your inner feelings say that you are moving on right path. As concerns to book publishers, media agencies and films, I would like to confirm that none of them might be having full and fledge technical knowledge about information security field as concerns to my knowledge. It’s similar to following examples on me:

A person comes and tells me that you are an expert please suggest me some medicines which can eradicate my serious disease of cancer. I am a technical professional and not a biological professional who is going to solve this problem.
A person comes and tells me that suggest a good lawyer who can defend my case in court. Now tell me how do I give suggestion as to which lawyer can prove this person innocent in court of law.
Thus, I can’t do anything or have any knowledge about any field which is not my subject or area of work. Similarly, even media peoples, book publishers and film makers does not have adequate or complete knowledge and they believe the statement to be true which is explained to them by many misguiding self-claimed hackers and/or reputed institutes. So, these peoples are also not responsible for some of these kinds of activities published by them on any medium.

Language Troubling: There is one more part of cheating called use of useless and complicated language in order to misguide students and especially technically sound professionals. This is a very intelligent part of stunt used by many self claimed security peoples to misguide others. Usually when any self claimed hacker or institute doesn’t know anything about complicated or expert level topic, and in such situation they want to include expert level topics in their study material without having any expert level knowledge; such peoples use very complicated words of English and prepare the contents in such a manner that it becomes very difficult to understand even for the persons who are fluent in English. A very complicated coding and useless technical terms are used in their study material, so that the victims cannot understand or claim against such self claimed hackers and so called specialized institutes, in a legal way. When any victim (user of such material) goes through such study materials and courses as well as certifications, they become helpless to understand such complicated and misguiding language, filled up of useless and non-understandable technical terms. Now, when they don’t understand anything the common psychology of such victims understands that, “it’s a part of expert level work and that’s why they are unable to understand the matter or that he won’t be able to complete this job successfully as he is not talented” and so on. In this way, the victims think themselves responsible for not understanding the expert level work. But they do not know that they have never been taught anything, which can be called an expert level education or job. This is what I am trying to explain you that it is not your fault, instead it is a stunt used by such self claimed hackers and institutes who tries to sell their
services and materials by misguiding others with the help of language troubling. So here also there is a need to be aware and alert of any services or material offered by any self claimed hacker and specialized institutions. They just have an intention of earning a huge amount from you and do not have any feelings for the information security field, students or the nation in any way. This is the reason they use difficult word, complicated terms and technical coding in order misguide others so that no one knows about their level of their knowledge.

Finally: Thus, finally the topics should be very clear that

Don’t get mad behind passion and be serious about legal activities.
Be alert that you are receiving right knowledge for which you have paid.
Be aware of what you are undergoing for is the right one for which you have paid and that too join after checking out.
Be practical, official and believe only that which happens only in front of your eyes. You should have the guts to demand for evidence.
Check the simplification of language used in the study material whether you can go through it and understand it or not, before purchasing any services or materials from self claimed hackers or so called expert level institutes which claims to be specialized in information security area.
Try to understand the difference between a truth and a false, correct and incorrect, etc. by going in depth about every fact related to services, products or materials you are offered by any self claimed hacker or so called specialized institutes.
Even if this is in my case, first check out with my study material, then get into the depth of my work background and then only purchase any services, products or material offered by me or on behalf of me.
Don’t get misguided behind media hype or false publicity of any person or institute without checking through it.

hi there… i’m no newbie to using event viewer, … and typically it’s an important tool for my daily assesment of what’s going on with my XP computer. i realize, occasionally win XP will use the system account to log on and do routine maintenance. but have any of you ever seen win XP cite instances of ‘guest’ logging in and out? especially when the ‘guest’ account is disabled? … upon waking this morning, i noticed all of this log on and log off activity which occurred while i was sleeping which was attributed to the guest account. if i look back in time in the even viewer, there are similar entries throughout, going back about three weeks at which point they are no longer present. it’s always the same logon/logon entry and there is generally one other priviledged use entry coinciding with each logon/logoff entry. as said, my guest account is and has been disabled. the only *enabled* user account is my own, ‘joel’ account. here’s a small snapshot of the general event viewer log from last night: … IMAGE … and the details for one of the ‘guest’ logins: … IMAGE … and the details for the ‘guest’ priviledged use instance: … IMAGE … anybody have any ideas? why would there be a ‘guest’ login when the ‘guest’ account is disabled? is this activity i should consider possibly to be hack related? maybe i should investigate further? … more system details: - windows xp home: i use one single enabled user account and it is set as admin level. - my machine is one of three on a home network accessing the internet through DSL; connection is shared via a US Robotics Max G - i use latest version of zonealarm for firewall - i use latest version of AVG for virii protection - my machine connects to router/internet via a standard CAT 5 cable; i do not use wireless - at the time of the above incidents file sharing was enabled; i’ve since disabled - at the time of the above incidents, my computer/remote assistance was enabled; it’s now disabled - remote access services are disabled; however, remote connection manager is enabled usb max 4G routher … thanks in advance for any assistance ..

Hackers who crossover into virus writing territory present the biggest danger to corporate computer systems as they perfect the ‘blended threat’ seen in recent virus outbreaks such as Sobig. That’s the assertion of Sarah Gordon, senior research fellow at Symantec Security Response, who has worked with the White House and the FBI to research the psychological profile of hackers and virus writers. Gordon told silicon.com that hackers are driven by the motivation to complete a technology challenge and are usually not interested in the basic task of writing viruses and worms. “There are people in the virus writing community who hack and people in the hacking community who write viruses but for the most part they are very separate communities. The virus writers are seen at the lower end of the food chain,” she said. But Gordon warned that creating a virus such as Sobig or Bugbear, only with much more damaging payloads, is well within the capabilities of even the most inexperienced hacker. “Many of the threats are the result of the crossover between hackers and virus writers. Erasing a hard drive is a couple of key strokes. It isn’t rocket science. A hacker of any skill level could write a self-replicating program but most find it too boring,” she said. And it seems the traditional stereotype of a spotty teenager hacking away in a dark bedroom is nothing more than a myth from the ******** “The population is diverse. It just takes the ability to manipulate a computer system. It is not guys sat in a basement with piercings everywhere. It could be the 50-year-old accountant because she is bored, or the boss’ 15-year-old daughter, or your 9-year-old nephew,” she said. There is also a distinct difference between hackers and virus writers, according to Gordon’s research. “Virus writers have normal relationships with peers and families. Hackers tend to be more introverted. Hacking is a very personal thing. One is power and control and the other is letting go.” Although Gordon works for a security software company, she says ‘ethics’ education at an early age would help prevent children and teenagers using their computer knowledge to cause damage. “One thing that is important is introducing ethics in technology at an early age. On the computer there is less context and security. Teaching them that there’s a person on the end of that modem is important,” she said.

“Strolling past a row of user cubes during his lunch break, this IT guy notices something odd: One PC’s monitor has a full-screen DOS prompt with lots of commands already entered, reports a pilot fish on the scene.
“Looking at the commands, he realized that somebody was uploading an executable file to another machine,” fish says. “The target was a company VIP’s notebook, the name of the uploaded executable surely did look ugly, and the file was uploaded successfully. Read the rest of this anecdote…
