Saving Flash files from websites
Here’s how you can save flash files from websites.
Visit the webpage (here i’m using http://www.xyz.com, just for an example)
Select Source( View > Source )
Now it would show up the HTML code for the site.
Now click CTRL+F buttons together or go to the Edit menu and select Find( Edit > Find )
In the search bar type swf and click find.
It will take you to something similar to EMBED xsrc=”abcd.swf”
Now select the file path. Example if it is EMBED xsrc=”/files/flash/abcd.swf” , copy the entire file path starting from the forward slash(/)
Now goto the address bar and paste the path next to the end of the current address.
It wouldd look like - www.xyz.com/files/flash/abcd.swf
Now click go or hit Enter and the same flash file will load for you but without the HTML - only the file.
Goto File > Save as and save the file in a safe place.
This may not work with some websites that has the files protected / also with some sites that use frames.
I have explained the procedure for internet explorer, this can be done in other browsers also with the same easy and with quite similar steps.

How to Use Telnet on a Windows Computer
How to Use Telnet on a Windows Computer
Telnet is great little program for doing a couple of interesting things. In fact, if you want to call yourself a hacker, you absolutely MUST be able to telnet! In this lesson you will find out a few of the cool things a hacker can do with telnet. If you are using Win95, you can find telnet in the c:\windows directory, and on NT, in the c:\winnt\system32 directory.
There isn't a lot of online help concerning the usage of the program, so my goal is to provide some information for new users. First off, telnet isn't so much an application as it is a protocol. Telnet is protocol that runs over TCP/IP, and was used for connecting to remote computers. It provides a login interface, and you can run command-line programs by typing the commands on your keyboard, and the programs use the resources of the remote machine.
The results are displayed in the terminal window on your machine, but the memory and CPU cycles consumed by the program are located on the remote machine. Therefore, telnet functions as a terminal emulation program, emulating a terminal on the remote machine. Now, telnet runs on your Win95 box as a GUI application...that is to say that you can type "telnet" at the command prompt (in Windows 95 this is the MS-DOS prompt), and assuming that your PATH is set correctly, a window titled "telnet" will open. This differs from your ftp program in that all commands are entered in the DOS window. Let's begin by opening telnet. Simply open a DOS window by clicking "start", then "programs", then "MS-DOS", and at the command prompt, type: c:\telnet The window for telnet will open, and you can browse the features of the program from the menu bar.

TO Crack the protected Web Pages
---TO Crack the protected Web Pages---------
Here are many ways to defeat java-script protected websites. Some are very simplistic, such as hitting [ctl-alt-del ]when the password box is displayed, to simply turning offjava capability, which will dump you into the default page.You can try manually searching for other directories, by typing the directory name into the url address box of your browser, ie: you want access to www.target.com .
Try typing www.target.com/images .(almost ever y web site has an images directory) This will put you into the images directory,and give you a text list of all the images located there. Often, the title of an image will give you a clue to the name of another directory. ie: in www.target.com/images, there is a .gif named gamestitle.gif .
There is a good chance then, that there is a 'games' directory on the site,so you would then type in www.target.com/games, and if it isa valid directory, you again get a text listing of all the files available there.For a more automated approach, use a program like WEB SNAKE from anawave, or Web Wacker. These programs will create a mirror image of an entire web site, showing all director ies,or even mirror a complete server. They are indispensable for locating hidden files and directories.What do you do if you can't get past an opening "PasswordRequired" box? . First do an WHOIS Lookup for the site. In our example, www.target.com .
We find it's hosted by www.host.com at 100.100.100. 1. We then go to 100.100.100.1, and then launch \Web Snake, and mirror the entire server. Set Web Snake to NOT download anything over about 20K. (not many HTML pages are bigger than this) This speeds things up some, and keeps you from getting a lot of files and images you don't care about.
This can take a long time, so consider running it right before bed time. Once you have an image of the entire server, you look through the directories listed, and find /target. When we open that directory, we find its contents, and all of its sub-directories listed. Let's say we find /target/games/zip/zipindex.html . This would be the index page that would be displayed had you gone through the password procedure, and allowed it to redirect you here.By simply typing in the url www.target.com/games/zip/zipindex.html you will be onthe index page and ready to follow the links for downloading.

Want to Trace the ip address of Email sender
When you receive an email, you receive more than just the message. The email comes with headers that carry important information that can tell where the email was sent from and possibly who sent it. For that, you would need to find the IP address of the sender. The tutorial below can help you find the IP address of the sender. Note that this will not work if the sender uses anonymous proxy servers.
First of all, the IP address is generally found in the headers enclosed beween square brackets, for instance, [129.130.1.1]

What is Hacking and Hackers
'Hacking' and 'Hackers' are terms that generally tend to have a negative effect on people. Most people straightaway start associating 'Hackers' with computer criminals or people who cause harm to systems, release viruses,etc.Nowadays the media has been wrongly and outrageously reffering to computer criminals as 'Hackers'.They fail to recognise the fact that criminals and hackers are two distinct terms and are not associated with wach other whatsover.People have wrong notions and for reasons not justified at all, they have a negative attitude and utter dislike for 'Hackers' and persons associated with 'Hacking'. Hackers in reality are actually good, pleasant and extremely intelligent people, who by using their knowledge in a constructive manner help organisations to secure documents and company secrets, help the government to protect national documents os strategic importance and even sometimes help justice to meet its end by ferreting out electronic evidence. Rather, these are the people who help to keep computer criminals on the run.
