Most rewarding hack you've ever done?
« on: June 22, 2012, 09:58:36 am »
Probably my favorite hack I've done so far was when I rescued my computer from utter annihilation, it had winXP and like 509 viruses and (i know it's not that big of a deal) but I installed arch linux first try as a first distro... then i got rid of it because i couldn't get kde functioning properly so all i used was xwindow-manager... but what about you?

My rewarding hack was when I had to install TinyLinux on an antique laptop... with floppies, lol.
You can read the documentation here and here.

Getting into the school AD Administrator account after the douchebag of a SysAdmin told me I would never amount to anything.


He had alot of work to do after that.

Getting a girls nudey pics off her email duhhhhh I l33t. I get a lot of grief for wanting to learn how to hack from my college buddies so one day I decided to crash the network while they were all taking tests. Needless to say they were not impressed when they had to try to access our network for part of the test and it was down.

lol at the "I be 1337 br0"


I think I would have to do the same if a SysAdmin said that I would never amount to anything, I've had teachers that gave me zeros on stuff because the computers wouldn't work, makes you want to totally f*** up their windows systems lol

Well I remember another thing. It is from a school.
I had this brainfucked teacher for IT. She didn't even know how to write in pascal or pronounce "boolean". One day we had an exam on computers and she dug up from God knows where these DOS programs that was made a decade ago for IT students to test their knowledge and shit.
I didn't perform well, because honestly - it was pathetic (and too old to understand) so at the end of it, the program crashed. Teacher, before the exam, said that if we close the window BEFORE showing to her the result, we'll get a 2 (10 score scale). So yeah, my program crashed.
But then I thought - she's stupid, maybe I can deceive her. And quickly shown her the fake error message through the CMD and said that these programs usually leave logs!, she told me to find them.
She believed and went away. I found some old IE cookies, copied some of it and changed a bit to say my name and the grade I got.
Of course it looked to her so bad-ass that she believed me and wrote the grade down.

This is just one of the better wins with that retarded teacher xD

Network wise, I got a remote shell on my IT professors computer, then got extra credit for explaining to the class how I did it, and how to fix it.


But, the hack that puts a smile on my face was hooking a Glade Sense and Spray air freshener up to the internet and making my house smell good from anywhere.


Kinda off topic:
I don't consider this a hack, but it is still funny. My room mate has ubuntu, so I installed ssh on it. Then I connect to him and use espeak to fuck with him.
When his friends come over and use his laptop, I do the same thing to them, and they really believe the computer is talking to them.

Most rewarding? Hmm, well the most rewarding was when I hacked my school's wifi password. I guessed it then like 3 weeks later they changed it. After they changed it I got some of my friends to take me to my school. I booted up bt5 on my notebook with reaver. It normally takes about 4-6 hours to hack it, but this only took 12.3 seconds. Not even joking. From then on I was known as the l33t h4x0r of my school. Shit was so cash being invited to senior parties when I was in the 8th grade.

I'd have to say when I got my high school's admin passwords, or yesterday when i got into an old employee's account. He was an old school hacker so he all sorts of nifty little tools and such. Plugged in my flash drive and now they're mine :)
In high school I changed a lot of redgistry stuff, and group policy. Just little stuff, like fire wall settings, a hot key to blue screen a computer...People had no idea what was going on.
Then I got suspended....

The best hack i had ever done was to try to implement the algorithm for encrypting messages inside an image... the algorithm was there, i just had to put my code down....

Me and my buddy (Zulu) were working on a python script at school on his laptop that we were making to gain access to wifi networks and get admin on them and then take them down if we wanted. So we went to test the script and it put a back door for us into our entire school boards network and then crashed the network. It took them 3 days to get it online again! And we still have admin! That was not my best hack but it's the best I'm aloud to say of.
