How To Hack Microsoft Internet Explorer

Note: I think Microsoft fixed this hack, it doesn’t seem to work no more.

This is how do do a really simple hack that exploits a pretty big security flaw in Microsoft Internet Explorer. You can use this to control the web address that’s displayed in your browser, while actually sending people somewhere else. It lets me pretend to be www.microsoft.com. If you copy and paste the following web address into your address bar (or click here) it’ll look like you’re at www.microsoft.com, but you’ll really be here.

http://www.microsoft.com©@indi.ca

The way you can commit crime with this is to pretend like you’re PayPal, or something else involved with money.

The hack works cause the copyright symbol can’t be read by Explorer, so it fucks up the stupid code. It’s poorly written. Any symbol you can find and copy-and-paste over will let youtrick guests on a website or people who read an eMail.

I have some problems with my internet explorer 6.0. I think that it has been hacked, as the starting page or the java pages simply redirect you to a page called about:blank wich has lots of viruses in it. It’s made with java. What can I do to eliminate this f… hack.

along the lines of hacking etc.. is it true u can ‘mimic’ someone’s email address ie. send an email as from billgates@microsoft.com without actually hacking into the account?

Well I really recommend you guys to go and download Mozilla FireFox from http://www.Mozilla.com. Well its practially a web browser which is way better than IE.

And Savi3, yes you can do that its called email spoofing. Well someone can send something putting someone else’s email or IP. Its really common so better be sure who really sends you mails…

And people who are really fasinated in hacking….Well guys why don’t put you knowledge into something constructive.

Why Does India Suck At The Olympics?

Today on the morning show we talked about the Olympics, namely China’s emerging dominance. For me the bigger question is India. Why does India suck so much? In 2008 the US won 110 medals, China won 100 and India won… 3. India has over a billion people, some economic clout and is by all counts an emerging superpower, but they suck at the Olympics. Why?

New New Kottu

Janith has updated Kottu with rims and shit. Seriously, it looks pretty good. You could say the desktop look is cosmetic, but check out the mobile. Kottu now looks like an app with settings and menus and such. The biggest problem with K2 is me, ie, it now takes me up to a month to respond to emails. OMG I’m scared of my email. But Janith’s done this code and design update all by himself and it looks pretty good. Check it out. There was one bug with the previous page link. Lettuce know if there’s any more.

Miss Travel. Alternately, Mistravel

This is highly dubious. Miss Travel is a travel/social networking site that connects ‘Generous’ and ‘Attractive’ travelers. To, like, travel together, I guess. It all seems a bit like arranged prostitution and trafficking. This is part of a broader online trend to connect rich men to younger, attractive women. Sites like seekingarrangement.com connects women to ‘sugar daddies’ already. I guess Miss Travel is just taking that trend international. Wait, I checked, it’s the same guy doing both.

Buying Appliances Online (Singer)

Sri Lankan domestics never say anything, they just stop coming. My maid just stopped coming and when I finally pressed her she said I needed to get a washing machine. I was hoping to ride this one out, but I’ve run out of underwear and I have no choice. I finally caved and bought a washing machine, from Singer, ONLINE. I put the online in all caps because it’s pretty awesome. I ordered the thing in like 15 minutes on Saturday and they just delivered it today. It’s pretty awesome, this brave new world.
