Tip 1 : Use a Dynamic IP ( such as no-ip or DynDns ) or from any other provider !

So, most of the noobs hear about no-ip and doesn't even understand what that is ! No-Ip is a Dynamic DNS, and we need it to keep the server connected to us no matter how many times our IP changes !

more detailes ?

Ok, we all know that our IP changes almost every time we disconnect from the Internet and reconnect again. So lets say that we setup a server, and in the connection settings we used our IP which is ( i.e. 121.18.199.45 ), after that we spread the server and got like 10 victims. These victims will stay with us for as long as our IP is the same, but whenever our IP changes the server from the slave's PC will not connect back to us anymore !!!

So, if you turned your router off, or you lost the connection for any other stupid reason, then you  managed to get back online with a new IP ( i.e. 121.11.56.17 ) you'll lose all 10 victims, because the server will not be able to find your new IP address and connect them to you !!

In conclusion, when we setup a server using no-ip in the connection settings, and when we activate the no-ip client program on our PC, the client will keep track of the changes in our IP address, and no matter what is the current IP or how many times it changes, the server will always be able to find us via our no-ip host .

I hope it's clear now :)

Tip 2 : FUD-ing the server

Of course, FUD-ing the server is important to infect the slave in the first place, it's also important to keep him infected for a long time without him knowing, and without him getting warnings from his AV or FW about a suspicious file or activity. So FUD-ing the server must be a habit of you'rs to increase the serve's chances of passing any AV scan operation also !

Noob Question : what does ( FUD ) mean ?

It means making the server Fully UnDetectable !
Or by other word ( Crypting ) the server !

Tip 3 : SetUp your server correctly ( with installation & startup settings )

One of the most important things while setting up your RAT, is to make sure that you're setting it up correctly and to activate the installation and startup settings .

And of course don't forget to activate the ( Persistant mode ) for the server as well ( on some RAT's it's called aggressive mode), this will make the server really hard to kill, ergo you'll not lose the slave easily .

Tip 4 : Updating the server with a new FUD one from time to time

This method is rearly used by RATters, and that is wrong ! the server updating function available on your RAT is a great and powerful thing if you used it correctly, so if you have a Crypter and you can get a FUD server you should update the server on your slave's PC from time to time with a new FUD one of course. By doing this you'll protect the server from getting detected and you'll definitly increase the server's chances to servive .

So it depends on the Crypter you're using. If you're using a public crypter it might stay FUD for like 1 - 2 weeks after that the server will become detected by multiple AV's. Of course private crypters and advanced crypters provids a longer time of FUD-ness .

Tip 5 : Giving the server dated IDs

Lets assume that you succeeded in infecting a 100 slave with a FUD server has the ID ( Pirate-Bay ), after couple of weeks of indicting them your server started to get detected by Av's, so you decided to update your server with a new FUD one, it's better if you give your new server a new and unique ID such as ( PB 21-Dec ) the ( PB ) stands for ( Pirate-Bay ) and the 21-Dec is the updating date. This way you can know the slaves infected by the old server and the ones with the new server so you can keep updating the old ones .

No-ob Question : what is server ID ?

Server's ID is a name that you can give for the server on the slave's PC, so for example when you spread your server in a torrent site you can name the server ( torrent ) so all the victims infected with this server will have the ID name ( torrent ). This helps you to identify the slaves. It's called ( Server ID or Identification ) depending on your RAT .

Tip 6 : Infect VIP slaves with multiple servers

This is a bad ass move actually :P , but lets say that you have a slave which is very important to you for some reason, and you don't want to lose him anytime soon, so I strongly suggest that you infect him with multiple servers ( I don't mean run the same server in his PC over and over again ! ) I mean infect him with totally different servers. You can infect him with a different RAT or even Key-logger if that is enough for you, or you can use the same RAT but with different settings ( different server password or different port ). Anyways, you can use your imagination on this ;)

Tip 7 : Always use injection option !

Well, some people will not agree with me on this ! ( some say it corrupt the server and others say it decrease the FUD-ness ) .

But I always find it better to inject the server to the Defult Browser, so it's your choice .

Tip 8 : General tips for RATs !

* Always give the server a meaningful Identification name, and let it be a reminder on where did you get this vicim from .
* I always protect the server with the port number as a password, so if I'm using port 2413 the server's password will be 2413. This way I'll never forget the pass .
* Use a different port for every RAT, so you can run multiple RATs in the same time if you ever needed to.
* Infect yourself with a non-persistant server and try to get familiar with the commands and functions, so you won't get confused while you're playing with a slave.

AND U DoNe !

This is next Step after Encrypting Ffile Containers and System

Mounting Your TrueCrypt Volumes

Now that you've made your TrueCrypt volumes, you may be wondering, well how the hell do I access these super-duper-highly-secure-and-encrypted volumes?

This depends on the type of drive you created earlier that you are trying to mount. We will run over the three different types.

Mounting an Encrypted File Container

The method is the same for mounting both hidden and normal volumes.

If you wish to mount either the public or hidden portion of a hidden archive, simply use the different password that you specified while creating your volume.

Open TrueCrypt and select the drive letter that you wish to mount your volume to.

Click "Select File" and navigate to the location that you have your file container at and select your container. Then click open.

Next click "Mount", with the drive letter you want your volume to be mounted as.

You will be prompted to enter your password, and load any key-files that you may have used. Leave the box "Cache passwords and keyfiles in memory" unchecked.
After loading any keyfiles, and/or entering your password, click OK.

You will now see your drive mounted under "My Computer" and TrueCrypt as the drive that you selected when you mounted it.
You may choose any available drive from letters A-Z.

It now act's like a normal drive. You can cut, copy, paste anything to and from the drive.

When you are done with the archive, you may dismount it.

Dismount the drive by ensuring that every process or location utilizing that drive is first closed to prevent damage to the volume.

Next, select the drive from TrueCrypt, and select Dismount. The drive will disappear from TrueCrypt and from My Computer

Mounting a USB Drive or Encrypted Drive Partition
There are two ways to use TrueCrypt with a USB/Flash Drive/External Hard Drive.

Encrypt the entire drive so that there is no empty space left on it.
- This is the method outlined earlier under "Encrypting a USB Drive or Encrypted Drive Partition".
It will require you to have TrueCrypt installed on the computer that you are trying to mount the removable media to.

Create an encrypted file folder large (or small) enough to fit onto the flash drive or external hard drive.
- I am far more fond of this method. It allows you to actually have TrueCrypt on the removable device so that it's contents may be mounted wherever you are. I highly recommend this method over the first for removable storage.
If using this method, the way to mount the drive is exactly the same as mounting an Encrypted File Container because, well, that's exactly what it is.

If you have for some reason decided to encrypt your entire external hard drive or flash drive, then you will need to follow a slightly different set of instructions which is outlined below.

Remember that for this way, you need to have TrueCrypt installed on the computer in order to mount the volume.

Open up TrueCrypt, and this time, instead of clicking "Select File", click "Select Device".
Have your device (USB/External HD) already connected to the computer.
Next select your device from the list of available devices and partitions, then click OK.
From here on out it is just like mounting a file container. If you initially created a hidden folder on your device/drive, you can enter a differnet password to get to that area of the drive.
It will then become visible under TrueCrypt, and My Computer, as the drive letter that you specified for it when mounting.
To dismount, make sure all folders and processes utilizing the drive are closed, then simply highlight the drive in TrueCrypt and select "Dismount".

Mounting a System Partition or Entire System Drive


This is the easiest drive to mount. Once you turn on the computer with the encrypted hard drive, you will be prompted to enter the password at a command line looking screen.

Upon entering the correct password, your operating system will boot.

If you wish to disable TrueCrypt in the task bar after booting your system, follow these steps:

Open TrueCrypt, and under settings, at the top, select preferences.

Uncheck the box "Start TrueCrypt Background Task" under "Actions to perform upon logon to windows"."

Click OK and then Exit. Restart to see the changes take place. You will notice that TrueCrypt no longer is int he task manager, and that it is not running in the processes under Task Manager

Useful Tips and Tricks

Tip #1: When working with detected files, malware in particular, it can often times be frustrating when your Anti-Virus deletes the files that you are using.
To avoid this problem, add an exclusion in your Anti-Virus as an entire drive letter, such as drive Z:\. Then create a TrueCrypt file container, and inside the TrueCrypt volume, keep all the files that are detected, along with all your hacking material.
Mount this file container as that drive letter you added to your exclusions list in your AntiVirus.
This keeps all of your sensitive files safe from prying eyes, and allows you to scan your entire computer for infections, with the TrueCrypt volume dismounted, without worrying about false positives.
Nothing gets in, and nothing gets out, without your permission.

Tip #2: Think about setting up a Virtual Machine that you do alot of your hacking from, and keep this in a TrueCrypt container.
This will make it so that some of the temporary files, time, and system logs that Windows and other operating systems keep are never found, and there will be no evidence, or time log against you in case of a lawsuit.
You can use your normal operating system, but you need to be good at deleting your logs using a secure deletion method.

What does Hannibal recommend I do to enhance computer security and avoid getting in trouble?

I recommend five main things.

First, use a VPN + Socks/RAT proxy to Hide Your Ass and avoid being aprehended in the first place.
Truecrypt is your second line of defense.
And if you decide, your third line of defense is a hidden file container.

Secondly, you must have whole drive encryption. I don't care if you have multi-booting operating systems or not, but whole drive encryption is a must!

Third, I recommend that you keep everything that is hacking related or otherwise illegal locked inside a highly secure file container on your hard drive somewhere. Make this container as big as you need.

Fourth, use a strong password! I'm talking dozens of characters long. I gave some hints earlier about how you can memorize a password of this length. DO NOT write it down.

Lastly, if you are not going to reformat your entire hard drive, wipe the data, and start over with a clean slate, which I recommend - nothing beats a fresh reformat, then you need to wipe down the free space of your hard drive using a secure deletion method.

How can I wipe the free space on my hard drive using a secure deletion method?

Download CCleaner from this link.
Install and run the software.
Go to Options > Settings > "Secure Deletion" Change drop down box to Gutmann (35 passes).
Click on Cleaner on the left hand side.
Down at the bottom, under "Advanced", check the very bottom box, "Wipe Free Space".
This, most likely is going to take a ton of time depending on your hard drive space and computing speed. Just be patient with it, this is very important.

Next Part After Complete Truecrypt Tutorial

To start with, you're going to need to download and install TrueCrypt from this link. Simply select your operating system.

If you are going to be encrypting a flash drive or external hard drive with TrueCrypt that you want to take with you wherever you go, and use the flash drive on computers that don't have TrueCrypt installed, you'll need a portable version of TrueCrypt that can be found here.

It is a clean download link. If you don't trust me, don't download it, or scan it on VT.

You can get it yourself by navigating to the directory you have TC installed to, and copying all the files in that folder to your flash drive or external HD.

Simply copy the folder to your flash drive and you will be able to mount any file after opening TrueCrypt.exe

There is another way to mount an encrypted flashdrive, but I'll go into that later.

Creating an Encrypted File Container

Use this method if all you want to do is create a file as big as you want with encrypted contents that can be stored anywhere, and then mounted as a drive letter through TrueCrypt.

Method #1 does not have the "suitcase with a false bottom" effect talked about earlier that Method #2 does. But both have their advantages and disadvantages.

1. Open TrueCrypt after you have it installed. Then select "Create Volume".
2. From the three choices, select "Create an encrypted file container"
3. Click Next and then select "Standard TrueCrypt Volume".
Click next again.
4. Click "Select File" and navigate to the location on your hard drive where you want your volume to be, and specify a name for it.
You actually have to give it a name, rather than just select a file. As you can see, I simply named mine "Volume 2", as I already have a Volume 1 that I use.
You can move and re-name this after it is created.
5. Make sure that the box "Never Save History IS Checked". And click next.
6. Choose your encryption and hash algorithms.
All methods are very strong and you're safe with them all. You can just leave them as the defaults (AES & RIPEMD-160).
7. Enter the size of the volume that you wish to create.
8. Enter your desired password. Ideally, make it longer than 35 characters.
I don't recommend using keyfiles, because they can get deleted and you will be unable to recover the data in the archive.
Just use a really good password consisting of uppercase, lowercase, special characters, and numbers.
If you can't think of a password that is that long, try combining a few differnet passwords you may know, maybe a bank account number, some song lyrics, and keyboard configuration.
Just basically anything that's going to get you to that length.
This step is critical. Passwords are the biggest weakness.
9. Next just move your mouse around randomly for as long as you have patience to do so, and then select format.
10. Depending on the size of volume you chose to make, it may take a while to create a volume.
11. That's it you're done!

1. Open TrueCrypt after you have it installed, on the tabs at the top, select the drop-down menu "Volumes"
2. Click "Create New Volume"
3. From the three choices, select "Create an encrypted file container"
4. Click Next and then select "Hidden TrueCrypt Volume". Click next again.
5. Select "Normal Mode" from the two options available.
You can experiment with Direct Mode if you wish, but it requires you to have a volume already made, that you wish to convert into a hidden archive.
6. Click "Select File" and navigate to the location on your hard drive where you want your volume to be, and specify a name for it.
You actually have to give it a name, rather than just select a file.
The name and location can be changed after creation.
7. Click next to begin specifying the options for the outer volume.
This is the part of the volume that you are going to be giving up to someone in case something very bad happens.
Ideally you should still use a strong password, and posssibly keyfiles to make it look legitimate.
8. Next click "Open Outer Volume" and put in some documents that are somewhat sensitive that you may have a legitimate reason to hide.
Examples of this could be your bank account statements, a text file containing your own passwords, documents outlining how to make explosives. Use your imagination.
But make sure that whatever you put in there isn't going to get you in too much trouble, but that it still explains your purpose for using TrueCrypt.
9. Click next. Now we begin to specify the settings for the hidden volume. It is important that you make this one stronger than the first with regards to password length etc.
10. Next specify the space you wish your archive to fill.
You are limited to the difference of the space between what you initially made your Outer Volume, minus the contents you put in your Outer Volume. e.g. (Outer Volume Space - Contents of Outer Volume = Max Space Available for Hidden Archive).
So it's important to make sure that your Outer Volume is initially created with an adequate size for both your Outer and Hidden Volumes.
11. Next enter your password and use and key-files that you may want for your Hidden Archive. If you still haven't got if yet, you need to use a separate password for both your Outer and Hidden Volumes.
12. Depending on the size of volume you chose to make, it may take a while to create a volume.

And then you're done!
For instructions on how to mount and use your TrueCrypt file container see refer to the section "Mounting Your TrueCrypt Volumes"

1. Insert the flash drive or connect the external hard drive to the computer.
2. Open TrueCrypt after you have it installed, on the tabs at the top, select the drop-down menu "Volumes".
3. Click "Create New Volume".
4. Select "Encrypt a non-system partition/drive".
5. Select whether you'd like to create a standard or hidden TrueCrypt volume.
If you don't understand what these are, refer to an earlier section.
For this demonstration, we will be creating a standard volume.
If you are creating a hidden volume on a USB or system drive, the steps are the same as creating a hidden file container.
6. Hit next, and then click "Select Device". This will bring up a list of all the drives attached to the computer.
7. Select the drive or partition that you wish to encrypt from the list.
8. Now there are two options at this step.
If you have data on the drive that you wish to preserve, select "Encrypt partition in place" - it will take longer, but nothing will be deleted.
This only works on NTFS Drives.
Alternatively, if you don't really care about anything on the drive, or make a backup you plan on moving in, you can select "Create encrypted volume and format it" - This will delete all data on the drive!
9. Next select your encryption methods.
10. Enter your desired password.
Ideally, make it longer than 35 characters.
I don't recommend using keyfiles, because they can get deleted and you will be unable to recover the data in the archive.
Just use a really good password consisting of uppercase, lowercase, special characters, and numbers.
If you can't think of a password that is that long, try combining a few differnet passwords you may know, maybe a bank account number, some song lyrics, and keyboard configuration.
Just basically anything that's going to get you to that length.
This step is critical. Passwords are the biggest weakness.
11. Next click "Format" a dialog box will appear notifying you that all data on the drive will be deleted. Click OK to continue formatting.
12. Depending on the size of volume you chose to make, it may take a while to create a volume. And then you're done! 

For instructions on how to mount and use your TrueCrypt volume, refer to the section "Mounting Your TrueCrypt Volumes"



This is the method you would use if you are interested in full drive encryption. You will need to have TrueCrypt installed on your computer in order to do this. At this time, you are unable to run TrueCrypt in portable mode to encrypt your whole computer.

We are also not going to go into hidden operating system's and duel boot setup's right now, as there are many YouTube video tutorials and articles online that outline this beautifully, and it is beyond the scope of this tutorial, as there are many possibilities.

With the instruction below, you will simply learn how to encrypt your whole hard drive to be decrypted upon boot after the correct password is entered.

Furthermore, if you decide that full drive encryption is not for you, you may decrypt it permanently, and also change the password if you desire.

It is good advice to back everything up onto external hard drives before using this method in case something goes bad, and you loose your data, but it is not necessary.

In my experience, you will not notice your computer speed reduced at all by encrypting your entire hard drive.

1. Open TrueCrypt after you have it installed, and then click on "Create Volume".
2. Select "Encrypt the system partition or entire system drive" and click next.
3. Select "Normal" and click next. You are free to experiment with the any other options, but I recommend starting with a normal archive just to get your feet wet.
4. Now when selecting which area to encrypt, I recommend you just select "Encrypt the whole drive".
You may choose the other one but the setup will change a little, and it is more for those with multi-boot setups.
5. Next it will ask you whether you want to encrypt the "Host Protected Area".
I recommend that you do not encrypt this (e.g. select NO), but again it is up to you to know whether your computer manufacturer uses these areas to store data or not.
So assuming you selected No, click next to continue.
6. Next click Single-Boot. Unless you have multiple operating systems and decide you want the other's encrypted as well.
The majority of users here probably only have a single boot system.
7. Now choose your encryption and hash algorithms. As noted earlier, all methods are very strong and you're safe with them all. You can just leave them as the defaults (AES & RIPEMD-160). If you wish to research more on the methods, and come to a conclusion on which is best, feel free to do so.
8. Choose the password that you will use every time your computer is turned on.
Do NOT forget this password. EVER.
If you decide to change this later, you may. Also note that key-files are not supported for full drive encryption.
9. Next just move your mouse around randomly for as long as you have patience to do so, and then select next.
10. You will now have to create a "Rescue Disk" for three reasons that are outlined in the TrueCrypt dialog box.
Please read over these steps and become familiar with them.
The rescue disk will basically allow you to boot your operating system from a disk to repair it if something becomes damaged.
Even if someone, including you, finds this disk, they will be unable to boot the computer without knowing the password. So again, DO NOT forget your password.
So select the location where you want the save the ISO, and name the file.
11. You will now need to burn this ISO to a disc.
If you are confused about how to do this, or need software, TrueCrypt has some links to free software that you can use here.
I recommend ImgBurn for burning ISO files.
It can be found for download here.
12. Upon successfully burning the ISO file to the disc, you can click next, and TrueCrypt will verify that you have done it correctly.
13. Now you will have to decide what kind of Wipe Method you want to use.
Depending on you computer's speed, and your patience, you can choose a different wipe method over another.
This step basically help's keep the data secure and unrecoverable.
Of course I recommend the Gutmann 35-pass method, but this is not appropriate for everyone. However, I suggest that you at least use SOME method of wipe.
Please note that you will still be able to use your computer if you decide to use the Gutmann or DOD methods, it will simply run in the background when your computer is started until it finally finished wiping and encrypting.
Just as an example, I have a 1TB hard drive, and when encrypting it, I used the Gutmann method. It took almost 4 days of running it non-stop on 8GB of RAM and an i5 processor.
14. After you have decided on a Wipe method, TrueCrypt will want to make sure everything is going to work properly in a System Encryption Pretest. Click Test.
A dialog box will appear with instructions about what's going to happen, and what to do if something malfunctions.
I recommend copying the contents of this to a text file and e-mailing it to yourself in case you need to read it from another computer.
15. You will now have to restart your computer. Click "Yes" to restart.
16. Upon booting up your computer, you will come to a black CMD screen which says "TrueCrypt Boot Loader 7.0a - Enter Your Password" etc.
17. You will need to enter the password you chose here. It will then flash "Booting" across the screen and your operating system will be loaded like normal.
18. Once your computer is booted, TrueCrypt will be loaded and it will tell you that the Pre-Test was completed successfully.
Next click Encrypt to start encrypting. It will give you another dialog box pop-up. It is a good idea to copy this down in a text file and e-mail it to yourself like the last set of instructions.
19. Now it will start encrypting your hard drive.
Depending on whether you chose a wipe method or not, and how large your hard drive is, this can take anywhere from an hour or so all the way up to weeks before it completes.
As explained earlier, you can still use your computer while this process works in the background.
20. After it is done encrypting, TrueCrypt will now tell you that it has completed the encryption successfully. Hit "OK", and then finish.

Introduction

I have decided to put together a tutorial on this topic simply because I feel TrueCrypt is not being utilized by many, when it is really a no-brainer that almost everyone on this forum should be using it.

I can't tell you how many times I've team-viewed with someone only to see a folder on their desktop titled "Hacking Sh!t", or "RAT"/"Cybergate".

Look at your desktop and file folders right now.

If you are one of these people that have any hack tools, other people's documents/passwords/logs/virtual machines on your computer which could get you in deep legal trouble, this tutorial is for you.

Furthermore, the Cryptography, Encryption, and Decryption section is a fucking mess right now with everybody asking for and offering Crypt's. This is an attempt to clean it up.

I have also seen some people asking questions about how to use TrueCrypt, yet haven't seen a proper and complete tutorial put together on the topic.


TrueCrypt, for those who don't already know, is an encryption software for Windows 7/Vista/XP, Mac OS X, and Linux.

It is basically a way of creating areas of your hard drive that are encrypted so that you can hide sensitive data and information there.

Furthermore, you are able to encrypt your entire hard drive so that at boot, your computer will not be able to start without entering the correct password.

This excerpt from TrueCrypt's website offers a more detailed explanation than I can provide:

TrueCrypt is a software system for establishing and maintaining an on-the-fly-encrypted volume (data storage device). On-the-fly encryption means that data is automatically encrypted or decrypted right before it is loaded or saved, without any user intervention. No data stored on an encrypted volume can be read (decrypted) without using the correct password/keyfile(s) or correct encryption keys. Entire file system is encrypted (e.g., file names, folder names, contents of every file, free space, meta data, etc).

Files can be copied to and from a mounted TrueCrypt volume just like they are copied to/from any normal disk (for example, by simple drag-and-drop operations). Files are automatically being decrypted on the fly (in memory/RAM) while they are being read or copied from an encrypted TrueCrypt volume. Similarly, files that are being written or copied to the TrueCrypt volume are automatically being encrypted on the fly (right before they are written to the disk) in RAM. Note that this does not mean that the whole file that is to be encrypted/decrypted must be stored in RAM before it can be encrypted/decrypted. There are no extra memory (RAM) requirements for TrueCrypt. For an illustration of how this is accomplished, see the following paragraph.

Let's suppose that there is an .avi video file stored on a TrueCrypt volume (therefore, the video file is entirely encrypted). The user provides the correct password (and/or keyfile) and mounts (opens) the TrueCrypt volume. When the user double clicks the icon of the video file, the operating system launches the application associated with the file type – typically a media player. The media player then begins loading a small initial portion of the video file from the TrueCrypt-encrypted volume to RAM (memory) in order to play it. While the portion is being loaded, TrueCrypt is automatically decrypting it (in RAM). The decrypted portion of the video (stored in RAM) is then played by the media player. While this portion is being played, the media player begins loading next small portion of the video file from the TrueCrypt-encrypted volume to RAM (memory) and the process repeats. This process is called on-the-fly encryption/decryption and it works for all file types, not only for video files.

Note that TrueCrypt never saves any decrypted data to a disk – it only stores them temporarily in RAM (memory). Even when the volume is mounted, data stored in the volume is still encrypted. When you restart Windows or turn off your computer, the volume will be dismounted and files stored in it will be inaccessible (and encrypted). Even when power supply is suddenly interrupted (without proper system shut down), files stored in the volume are inaccessible (and encrypted). To make them accessible again, you have to mount the volume (and provide the correct password and/or keyfile).

TrueCrypt is a must for anyone doing anything illegal or blackhat through the use of a computer.

Even if you are not participating in blackhat activities, there are still a plethora of reasons, limited only by your own creativity, as to why you would want to use TrueCrypt.

There is an interesting story going around about one individual that used TrueCrypt and avoided certain jail time because of it.

For those that don't feel like reading it, basically the story is that this individual downloaded "maybe 30" CP images to see what it was like and ended up getting raided because of it. All of his computers were seized, and he was taken into custody.

Upon analyzing his computer, they agents hit a dead end once they found that he had used whole drive encryption on all of his hardware.

I'm sure there's more to the story that he has you believe about him not being involved in CP, but nevertheless, the story goes as follows:

This isn't meant to be advertising for or against computer encryptions. Facts are, I encrypted my computer and it saved my life, my reputation and everything I have.

In February 2004 my house was raided by the FBI. They came with the full van and armed agents. They rushed in, presented a warrant and mentioned they had proofs somebody here had downloaded child pornography. Now understand this: this isn't a whole child pornography is good / child pornography is bad story. I don't know if people who watch child pornography turn into pedophiles or not (I don't think they do). I am not saying what I did was good, or even legal.

I had downloaded some child pornography. Not a lot of it, maybe 30 pictures. I am NOT sexually attracted to children and promptly deleted most of them. Since I had a large pornographic collection, there might have been a few I wasn't able to find, and delete. I never watched these pictures or masturbated to them. That being said, I accept my responsability of downloading them. One thing I should say: I downloaded them all in one day, without knowing it was actual pornography (i.e. downloaded a file that wouldn't indicate it contains child pornography).

They promptly took my computer, my external external hard drive and my laptop. They took my parents' computer as well. I was detained for interrogation.

And I was smart.

The very first thing I said, even before the interviewer dropped his pen, is "I want my attorney." Note: I had no attorney. I was bluffing. The officer said "Sure," took a few notes, and asked me for a few details "to file the case." Yes, he tried to trick me into talking, or at least starting to talk. I immediately repeated: "I want my attorney." That is the ONLY thing I said. I wanted to yell at him "I DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOUR FILE" but I did not.

He eventually complied, asked for his details, at which point I said I did not have an attorney but was in the process of finding one. However, I wanted a public defender. They charged me with possession of child pornography, mentioning my computer as proof. Inside, I laughed a bit, knowing what was waiting.

I was formally charged, set bail, paid it, and let out. And then began a quite dramatic - but funny - turn of events. When you file charges in my state, the defendant has the right to a speedy hearing AND, of course, a preliminary hearing. I expressed my rights fully (eventually hired an attorney, my public defender didn't do much).

The police - and FBI - had one problem.

My hard drives were all encrypted.

Even my laptop was encrypted. Back home, I took care to properly destroy anything that could ever get me in trouble - even letters I wrote as a child. The police had rapidly checked for more evidence, but as they wouldn't find anything, they did not take the time to look for drugs, drugs equipment and other evidences for other crimes.

Two weeks later I got a call from someone claiming to work for the FBI. Apparently they were unable to decrypt my hard drives and required my help. I told them to talk to my attorney. I was summoned in and the only thing I told them was "I want my attorney".

They wanted the password

-We know you encrypted your data. We even know which program you used. By law, you are required to decrypt the data.

-I want my attorney.

They complied, my attorney came (at high cost) and the situation was re-explained to him (I, of course, already told him the situation, and he recommended not helping them a damn). He told them they had no legal stand.

They formely ordered me to decrypt my data, threatening to charge me with terrorism, and I refused one last time. I was jailed again for a night and new charges were pressed for obstruction (i.e. refusing to help on an investigation).

Fast-forward a week, I get a formal plea bargain. Ten years as a sex offender, six years probation, if I recognized guilt for possession of child pornography. The other charge would be drop. Quite a good deal, huh? My public defender STRONGLY told me to accept as the conviction rate was "nearly 99%". My attorney told me to invoke my 5th amendment and refuse any cooperation.

Fast-forward to the preliminary hearing. The judge has to decide whether or not there is enough evidence to prosecute me. He asks for the investigator, who explains the situation, and for the forensic expert. To make a short story, they mention my IP clearly downloaded child pornography. Looks like I'm finished.

Except for one thing. It has been so long between the download and the raid it was hard to prosecute me on the IP address alone. The record were old, incomplete, poorly filed. My attorney did a good job making the forensic expert admit "mistakes were possible."

Then came my turn. The expert told the judge they could not find any trace of child pornography because my hard drives were encrypted. He said it was a clear proof I "was hiding something probably worse" at which point he was promptly stopped by my attorney (speculation is not accepted in court). The judge agreed. The expert closed his statement by saying that I had not only encrypted my hard drives, but external drive and laptop.

Then came my turn. The judge summoned me, asked me a few questions, and finally asked: "Why did you encrypt your hard drive?" Think fast. What could I reply!!!

"For safety and privacy, your honor. In case of theft."

"Why do you refuse to decrypt your data?"

The $1,000 question (note: this is not exactly what was said, just how I recall it). What can I say? Quick, a word with a lawyer. Then, the genius answer:

"Your honor I would like to invoke my 5th amendment" "Alright".

Oh, the irony of 5th amendment. If you don't invoke it, you have to incriminate yourself. If you do invoke it, you indirectly admit guilt. Of course that can't be used against you, but whatever.

There were a few more statements, and eventually the prosecution had nothing. The judge took a moment to think, then said two words that would change my life. "Case dismissed" due to "lack of evidence". I was ecstasic.

The prosecution party was furious. They closed the file. The judge was about to end the audience when I said:

"Your honor, they still have my computer. I want it back!"

"You just had a criminal case dimissed."

"It's my stuff. I want it back"

"Very well. Your town's police department has 30 days to give you your material back. Audience finished".

I was very happy. I felt I added to the insult with that last request. The prosecution party couldn't believe it, after all that work.

I got my stuff back and it took me a full month before I dated to open my computer again. I was afraid they put a bug or would still try to harass me or incriminate me. I feared they were waiting for me to decrypt me to charge me again. I waited one whole month, then decrypted the file - saved the files I wanted to keep then formatted it all, writing random 0's and 1's.

So this is it. TrueCrypt certainly saved my life, reputation and money. Without it, there is no doubt the police would have found the pictures, and convicted me. I would be on the same registery as rapists and pedophiles - all this for a mistake of mine. But encryption - and refusing to give up despite the threats of being charged with a much more serious crime - kept me free.



In some countries, the use of encryption of any kind is illegal. This includes TrueCrypt.

If you happen to live in one of these countries, are being charged with a cyber crime, and they find any encrypted contents on your hard drive, you can bet you're in for a rough time.

They will physically beat the shit out of you and torture you into providing them with the password or key-files to the volume.

Furthermore, it can even be illegal for you to transmit encrypted files from one country to another.

I urge you to check up on the laws in your country and ensure that the methods outlined below are actually legal in your country and you're not just digging yourself a bigger hole.

If you live in the United States, TrueCrypt is legal, and the passwords for your archives are protected under the 5th Amendment.

If you live in a country where it is illegal, there are things you can do to use TrueCrypt a bit more safely.

One example is to use a Hidden Archive. This is basically like a suitcase with a false bottom.

One password - the one you would give to authority's if interrogated and tortured - will open the archive and display certain contents, while the second password will open the same archive but display different contents.

However, this doesn't change the fact that using encryption is illegal.


I take no liability for consequences of using this tutorial - including hard drive failure, loss of data, and legal action of any kind.

Do not post or repost this tutorial in part, or in it's entirety on Hack Forums, or any other forum!

Although I have striven to provide complete accuracy, this information is provided "as is" with no warranty.

Items Needed:

* Any Icon Changer
* A Binder
* A Brain

1) Create your virus. We shall call it 'server1.exe' for now.


2) Get any picture file you want to distribute.

3) Bind the 'server1.exe' and your picture file with any binder, we'll call the binded file 'virus1.exe'.


3b) I reccomend Easy Binder 2.0, which comes with a bytes adder and a icon extractor, aswell as some really good packing options. I've uploaded it, virus free, to: http://www.mediafire.com/?igjy4dnn0zb < This will be caught by your AV as "Binder/Kit". It is not a virus, it is a binder than is not undectable. If you don't wish to use it, that's fine, find your own.

4) Be sure you have 'Hide common extensions' unchecked in your Folder Options.


5) Change the 'virus1.exe' to '%Picturename%.jpeg - %Email/Web Address%.com'. For example, we'll call it 'HPIC_119.jpeg - test@test.com'.


.com works the same as .exe, except fewer people actually know that's what it really is.

6) If you plan on distributing your virus via MSN, please skip to 7. If you plan on distributing your virus via file upload sites, please skip to 8.

6b.) I reccomend Icon Extractor V3.8 FULL with Serial


7) You will now need to change the icon from that ugly box. Find the picture you added to the file, and make it an icon. How? Find one of the various online Picture to Icon converters. Once your picture is a .ico, use your Icon Changer program to change the icon of the file to the .ico you just made from the picture. When you send it to people on MSN, it will show a small box of the picture inside.


8) You will not need to change the icon from that ugly box. Using your Icon Changer program, find the .jpeg icon, and change the ugly box to the .jpeg icon.


9) Conclusion. Your file will now look like a legit picture to 9/10 people. Some people do know that .com is an extension, but the average computer user will not see any difference, and will download it without hesitation.

I have never come across a tutorial that explains how to do this, and found this out after hours of online searching. If there is another tutorial, all credits to them, my mistake.

Hello everybody! I am here to show you this magical tool called Metasploit that allows you to hack ANY unpatched computer with only it's IP. Lets begin...

1.) First you need to download Metasploit. The most up-to-date version is FREE at metasploit.com.

2.) You need PostgrSQL for your database. Download here: http://www.postgresql.org/. Make sure you use all the defaults or Metasploit woun't work!

3.) Now lets get down to buisness... After installing both tools, open up the PostgrSQL admin gui (start -> all programs -> PostgreSQL 9.0 -> pgAdmin III). Then right-click on your server (in the left hand box) and click connect. Remember to keep this window open the whole time. You will also need the pass you chose to use in step 5...


4.) Time for some hacking! Go to start -> all programs -> Metasploit Framework, and then open the Metasploit gui. Let it load untill it look like this:


5.)Now, in the window type:

db_connect postgres:ThePassYouChose@localhost:5432

The first time you do this you will see lots of text flash buy. Don't wory, this is normal.

6.)Type db_host to make sure you are connected correctally.

7.)Now type this:

db_nmap 000.000.000.000

Make sure you put the ip of the computer you are trying to hack in the place of 000.000.000.000...

7.) Now we get to the fun part; the automatic exploitation. Just type db_autopwn -t -p -e -s -b , watch the auto-exploitation start, go play Halo for a while, and then come back...

8.) After the exploitation is done, type sessions -l to see what the scanner found. If all went well, you should see a list of exploits.

9.) Now we get to use the exploits to hack the computer! If you will notice, all of the exploits are numbered, and they all have obvious names (i. e., reverseScreen_tcp). In order to use an exploit, type this:

sessions -i ExploitNumber

The features of Metasploit are mutch like a rat. Once you get into someone's computer, you can see their screen, controll their mouse, see what they type, see them, etc.

If hard drive space is at a high premium for you, then turning System Restore off will save you a good bit of hard drive space. When disabled it will also not run in the background anymore while it creates restore points. However, disabling System Restore will mean that there will be no restore points available to go back to in the event of a problem with your Windows 7 system files. You will need to create backups or system images if you disable System Restore instead incase you need to reinstall.


This will allow you to reduce the amount of time it takes for a menu in Windows 7 to pop, fade, or slide open when you run the mouse pointer over it.


This power plan maximizes system performance and responsiveness. However, if you use a mobile PC running on battery power, then you will notice that your battery doesn't last as long when using this plan.


This will show you how to change the delay time, in milliseconds, that the mouse pointer has to stay hovered on a item before it is selected or opens a pop-up in Windows 7.


This will show you how to change the amount of time to display a list of operating systems in the Windows Boot Manager screen at boot and wait for you to select a OS to start before the default OS starts automatically. If you do not dual boot with another operating sytem on your computer, then you can uncheck, or reduce the time as low as it will go, to save on how long it takes to boot your computer.


Gadgets can be handy to offer information at a glance and provide easy access to frequently used tools from your dekstop. However, since each gadget added will take up some of your system resources. You can see how much memory is being used by the gadgets in Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) under the Processes tab with the sidebar.exe process.


Installing Windows 7 onto a solid state hard drive (SSD) instead of a normal SATA or IDE hard drive will dramatically increase your computer's performance.


Make sure that you have the latest available drivers installed for all of your devices and BIOS version for your motherboard. Check at the device's website for them. Be sure to have the correct versions for your 32 bit or 64 bit Windows 7. If you do not have Windows 7 drivers available, then you can often times use Vista drivers instead with sometimes having to use Compatibility Mode on the driver installation file with Vista selected.


The more you have the better your performance can be up to a point. Usually 3 GB (32-bit) or 4 GB (64-bit) will be the most that you will need though unless you do memory intensive actions such as video editing.


The glass transparency effect uses the most resources from the Aero feature. You can disable it without disabling Aero.


Uncheck the visual effect options that you do not want or need, or select the Adjust for best performance option, to increase the speed. You can optimize performance by changing how menus and windows appear. The most common visual effects to uncheck are:

* Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing
* Animations in the taskbar and Start Menu
* Enable transparent glass
* Fade or slide menus into view
* Fade or slide ToolTips into view
* Fade out menu items after clicking
* Show shadows under windows
* Slide open combo boxes

This option is usually the best choice for storage devices that must provide the highest possible performance and that you intend to not remove from the system frequently, such as internal hard disk drives.


Double check through your startup programs and disable or remove the ones you do not want to have start when Windows 7 starts. It is a good idea to check these every once in awhile to help make sure that some unknown program or malware has not placed itself to startup with Windows 7.


Services use processes that run in the background using part of your computer's resources. Check through your services with the help of the guide provided in this link, and disable the services that you do not use or need.


Windows 7 includes many features. You can review the list of features and turn off the ones that you do not want or need.


By default Disk Defragmenter is scheduled to run in the background automatically every so often in Windows 7. Having this running in the background can cause a slight slow down and extra hard drive activity. You should either set the schedule to run at a time when you are not using the computer while it is on, or turn it off and run Disk Defragmenter manually when it is convenient for you instead.


Fragmentation makes your hard disk do extra work that can slow down your computer. This will show you how to open and use Disk Defragmenter to manually analyze and defragment your disks and drives in Windows 7.


If you do not use hibernate, then disabling it will save you a GB size file from being saved on your hard drive when you put the computer into hibernation mode.



Running Disk Cleanup every so often will help find and remove unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster.


This will allow you how to set the Wait to Kill time Windows 7 waits for programs to save data and close before shutting down.


This will allow you how to add Copy To Folder and Move To Folder to the context menu to make copying and moving files faster and easier in Windows 7.


This will show you how to select a user account to have Windows 7 automatically log on to at startup so that you do not have to spend time manually logging on to the user account everytime you start or restart the computer.


If you use sleep, hybrid, or hibernate mode, then you may wish to disable the option to have your computer require you to enter a password everytime you wakeup the computer.


If your computer does not run primarily off of a battery, then using sleep mode will allow you to put your computer to sleep and wake it up quickly instead of completely shutting down and starting the computer.


Most computers that you buy, at a retail store (OEM), have a ton of software installed on it. Some of these can take up a lot of resources. Uninstall the programs that you do not want to use from Programs and Features


This will allow you to change how long notifications or messages are displayed in the Windows 7 taskbar notification area before they close automatically.


If there are a lot of thumbnails in a Windows Explorer window, then it can slow down your computer while you wait for the thumbnails to load. If this happens or you prefer icons instead of thumbnails, then disabling thumbnails will speed up how fast a Windows Explorer window will open by displaying only icons instead of thumbnails.


You can use ReadyBoost in Windows 7 with USB flash drives and flash memory cards to help speed up your computer.


If you are a system administrator who requires faster performance and are aware of the compatibility of the applications you are using, then disabling Program Compatibility Assistant (PCA) can be useful.

Alright, well, everyone knows about msconfig and how to config the startup items.

This tutorial will not be about this.

This tutorial is going to introduce and familiarize you with a software in beta right now called "Soluto". Now, you can download Soluto (direct link) here.

Now, how does Soluto work? Well, it works by having you restart your computer, timing your boot, analyzing the software that boots up, and then allowing you to "pause" or "delay" a program. We'll get to that later.

Now, once you've downloaded Soluto, install it and then something like this will pop up:


Hit Reboot and let it work it's magic. In the bottom right hand corner, it will time your boot and show you which programs are booting up. Once your computer is done booting up, here's where the magic part of Soluto comes in.

Soluto connects to their servers to see what each of your startup items are and whether you should "pause" them or "delay" them.


Alright, that's what the main window looks like... now, lets look at with "pause" and "delay" means.

"Pausing" a program just means it deletes the program from the startup.

"Delaying" a program means the program will start running when your computer is idle.

I hope this helps anyone! ^^ I know most people can use msconfig, but, if you have a friend, this will help as well. For me, I can do both, but I like Soluto even better.

Screwing around in your registry editor and need to go back to when it WASN'T screwed up? Well, rebooting in LKGC (Last Known Good Configuration) is exactly the thing you need!

What it DOES: LKGC will roll your current registry settings back to your last successful Logon Settings.

What it DOESN'T: 1) Reset filesystems (Other than registry files) 2) Restore deleted, or overwritten files. 3) Correct driver "Updates."

Now though this step by step is rather minute, it will demonstrate how LKGC works. Remember this trick at ALL TIMES when working around in your registry editor!

1)Your Desktop background is part of your registry, as it functions from within. So, what we're going to do is change the background. (Right click on the desktop, select properties, and then desktop.) We're going to call this change, "A."

2)Reboot Your computer, and verify that "A" is your desktop background.

3)Change your desktop image again (Right click desktop, properties, desktop) and select your new background. This will be "B."

4)Reboot. IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR BIOS screen clears, tap F8, or whatever your boot options button is. (If your colored windows loading screen pops up, you've missed the opportunity... Redo this step, WITHOUT LOGGING ON.)

5)Select "LAST KNOWN GOOD CONFIGURATION," from Advanced Windows Options.

6)Verify that "A" is once again your desktop background. If so, then you've successfully rebooted to LKGC!

All done. :]

So, now that we're getting virtual memory errors all the time, it's about time we fix it! Just a warning ahead of time, however... this is going to require you to go into your registry editor. This is a risky business, messing around in registry editor, and if there are any errors, it could be fatal. I wrote a tutorial about LKGC (Last known good configuration) |HERE|, and would highly recommend you become familiar with it, as well. With that said, here ya go, Step-by-step!

1. Go in to your Run prompt, by clicking Start, and then run.

2. Type "regedit" then click OK, to enter your registry Editor.

3. In the left pane, expand: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > CurrentControlSet > Control > Session Manager > Memory Management

4. In the right pane, double-click ClearPageFileAtShutdown. When the Edit DWORD Value window appears, Type 1 in the Value data field, then click OK..

5. Exit Registry Editor

6. Restart.

Hello today i will give a clean tutorial on "how to make your computer boot faster". This is very simple.
Some may already know this some may not know this.

follow these steps and you will have a faster booted comp after this tutorial.

1) click "start"

2) in the "search programs and files" field type "msconfig"

3) Now another screen will pop up looking like this!

4) what you will do now is press the "startup" tab on top of the window.

5) now you will see a list of programs which will start up when windows start

6) What you will do now is simple!
just un-check the boxes of any program that requires a lot of CPU usage on startup like "utorrent, steam, skype, etc..."

7) when you feel done just press "apply" then "ok" and you ready to go !

8) Reboot your computer and you will see huge difference depending on what programs you un-checked !

I'm sure that this tutorial is on this already but i wrote this myself to help noobs with one basic thing about computers !

This is going to be my first tutorial, I searched for "windows start up" and I didn't find anything related to this so I decided to make a new post for it. sorry if this is already posted somewhere I honestly didn't know.

Okay so basically what this will do is utilize every piece of memory and cpu cores when windows boots thus making your start up faster. First what you need to do is hold down the windows key and press "R" and type "msconfig" without the quotes. windows key looks like this on your keyboard


After you open "msconfig" you will need to click the "Boot.ini" tab


After that change "Timeout" to something lower, I use 5 seconds. Once you have that changed click "Advanced Options"


Once your in Advanced Options make sure the first two boxes are checked and make sure they are set to the max amount of RAM you have and max amount of CPU cores you have.


After you have done the above switch to the "Start up" Tab and un-check any programs you don't absolutely need upon start up.

For example, any type of messenger, any type of toolbar, limewire (if you have it) basically any program that doesn't affect the stability of your operating system.



After you have done all of this you will need to restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

If anybody sees anything I did wrong or if I forgot something please point them out so I can fix them as fast as possible.

After Games or Running Mutiple Apps. DO THIS

Are you sick and tried of having to locate your XP CD when you add/remove parts of XP or when using the System File Checker?

This tutorial will show you how to copy the XP setup files to your harddrive and modify the registry accordingly.

1. Insert your XP CD into your drive.
2. Using Windows Explorer copy the entire contents of the folder I386 to your C drive.

1. Opening regedit:
Click Start -> Run. Type Regedit in the run box and then click Ok.
2. Navigate to the registry keys that need to be changed.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Setup

and ServicePackSourcePath. They usually default to being the path of
your CD drive. The values should be changed to one level
above where you copied the I386 folder on your C drive.

Examples:
C:\I386 the value should be C:\
C:\Myfolder\I386 the value should be C:\Myfolder

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion

That should be it, now close out of Regedit.

This is an old trick, but I hope some people may find it useful.
