Hacking with luke

[megatfais]

i actually discussed this hacking problems aka cyber crimes during my educamp.LOL.luckily this thread is meant for hacking our own comps only.

So, okaylah..Btw, i'm actually not so good at computer. So, do u have any websites that can recommend to improve my pc skills...Like what is graphic cards or how to repair pc.....Thanks in advance..

My apologies if I took you out of context. I wrote that because I perceived the line "Plz don't tell me than it's innate ability. I'm not that fool..." as some sort of disgruntlement towards his reluctance to teach you.

Whoaa .. what happened here?

Anyway, I put "Hacking with luke" as the title of this thread doesn't mean I do those kind of Hollywood hacking where a protagonist just ram his fingers on the keyboard and voila he cracks the password to Pentagon. Seriously, I hope no one in this thread has that kind of impression on what hacking is ...

I'm more of a programmer, coder, scriptror or whatever you call it. Like I've written in my first post in this thread, I enjoy coding just like writers (some if not all) enjoy writing. I will get my hand on any programming or scripting languages, if I want la .. You know nowadays there are many programs that have scripting capabilities where anyone can code a script and load into the programs and you can perform let the programs perfiorm some repetitive tasks by using hotkeys or input dialogs. I've coded for mIRC, Aegisub (subtitling tool), PSPad (nice notepad replacement even better than Notepad++), Bluetooth Remote Control and a few others. Can't describe the joy of having a degree of control over those programs by coding my own script. A feeling of satisfaction and self-realization I imagine hackers who break into a secure system would feel.

It is somewhat similar like to customizing your Windows machine. Feel that the default My Computer icon is boring, but can't find where to change the icon? Yeah, changing that hacking is not that straightforward. You can install a program that can do it for you, but the joy of messing windows registry using regedit pwns everything.

And as my last point for this post, I'd say that this coding and programming thingy is more like doing paintings. You can learn how to hold brushes, mix colors, airbrush techniques and all, but it takes creativity, talent and a lot of trial and error to come up with good paintings.

p/s: to change My Computer icon, change HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}\DefaultIcon in Regedit (and no I did not google for this. What I did is opened up regedit and find keyword "My Computer", went throu some irrelevant entries to zoom on to correct one)

I am so interested in becoming a programmer, anyway, no chance for it coz my family, especially my mum thinks this job is extremely risky (In terms of the ability to get employed), so I choose to become a pharmacist. Can you teach me some ways, basically, to become a basic programmer.
Do you know how to use FLASH?

If you have no knowledge at all on programming, I'd suggest you try scripting first. That way you don't have to worry about compilation, linking, libraries blah blah advanced stuff that may scare you .. what you need first is understanding the concepts of programming, not the dark sides of it

Maybe you can try javascript. Copy-paste the following into notepad and save as test.html on your desktop:

<html>
<head>
<title>Javascript Test</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function JS()
{

// workspace

}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" value="Click" onclick="javascript: JS()" />
</body>
</html>

Now open the file in browser. If you use Internet Explorer you may see IE yellow warning bar "To help protect security, Internet Explorer has restricted .." (blah blah). Click on it and select "Allow blocked content". You will see a single button "Click" on the page. Clicking on it will do nothing for now but we are going to add some spice to it.

Re-open the file in notepad if you have closed it. Add the following line after "// workspace":

alert('test');

(Don't forget the semicolon at the end). Refresh the page in your browser, and try clicking the "Click" button again.

Next, remove the line and try the following lines, one by one:

alert(12931+3279);

alert(7311*2123);

After that, try googling for some simple javascript codes and try making those codes run when you click the "Click" button

.. to be continued?

p/s: Flash is not programming language. It has scripting feature though. I don't recommend basing your learning of programming on Flash.

The job is risky? It's THE most in demand job in the market now =.=

i wonder how much would i have earned if i charged 50 per hour for every computer that i've fixed over the last few years kekeke

Luke, you know what, I really really (x1000) appreciate what you had just told me in your post above, anyway, I have no (even a little bit) knowledge about scripting too, too bad, not even knowing what is javascript. Anyway, I have saved your useful post as a reference and I need to do much homework by my own, e.g. knowing first what is scripting and javascript as well.
After 5 minutes of testing.........
Yeah, it is so much fun learning to script.... THANX Luke, looking forward to receiving something more amazing from you!

Luke, i wanted to run a setup and it requires me to have .NET Framework 2.0.50727
Could you plz give me the link to download it? I'm so lazy to look it up in internet( so many of it)....Thanx in advance..

I've observed from my time here in ReCom...that it would be in one's interest to leave out the "lazyness" thingie while asking for help.

Hey luke. I know you're a big advocator of Javascript as the first step into programming, but what are your thoughts on Python?
