HACK FACEBOOK PASSWORD USING EASY METHODS

Facebook is the latest teenage craze all around the world. I have seen many people wasting hours for finding different methods and ways for hacking their friend's or enemy's facebook account. Most of the sites claiming to teach easy facebook hacking methods are spam and try to sell you useless hacking ebooks or other senseless softwares.Some even claim to hack the facebook passwords for free for you. Wake up people and think logically. First let me make something clear to you, there is no such software or tool which will hack the Facebook account password for you, while you sit back and enjoy your cappuccino and don't even think of hacking into the facebook databases to get the passwords. But hacking facebook accounts is not completely impossible, i would say it can be done rather very easily if you decide to give your time and have some patience. There are may be hundreds of ways of hacking facebook accounts but here i am providing you some, which i am familiar with. This is a long post and i have tried to provide all the methods in great detail so bear with me.Now let us begin.


1) KEYLOGGING

Type:- software and hardware
Tools needed:- Keylogger software or keylogger device
Special skills needed:- no special skills needed but some commonsense , some prior knowledge of the target and convincing power.
Main enemy:- Antivirus software and Firewalls.



Keylogging is one of the easiest and most widely used hacking method for hacking Facebook passwords. The word keylogging means to keep a track / log of the keys pressed on the computer.There are mainly two ways of keylogging, Software and hardware.

1) Hardware:- Special computer devices for keylogging are available. They are connected to the keyboard wire and then to the CPU. It looks like the keyboard wire's part and cant be easily detected.When needed the device can be disconnected and the logs can be viewed.
*Bad points:- This method is mostly not preferred for hacking facebook passwords, as the devices are costly and need physical access to the computer.

2) Software :- There are thousands of different keylogger software which provide the user with a wide range of options.From them the keylogger which can be remotely installed is preferred for hacking Facebook passwords.They keep log of the keys pressed on the target's computer while remaining hidden and after some specific time send it as a email to the user without the target's knowledge..
*Bad points :-Most of the keyloggers are detected by the Antivirus and Firewall softwares, but some keyloggers are able to bypass the Antivirus and Firewall software. You also have to convince the target to install the keylogger while remote installing it.

Personal Tip:- Try the keyloggers which come under the parental control category which are used by parents to keep an eye on the child's online activities. This keylogger are mostly Antivirus and Firewall friendly. The AV and firewall wont detect them because if they did detect it then the child will come to know about it and it will be of no use. The only short coming of these keylogger is that they dont have remote installation feature.


2) PHISHING

Special skills needed:- no special skills needed but some convincing power.
Many enemy:- Intelligent targets.

Phishing is the most widely used hacking method for hacking Facebook passwords. In phishing the attacker sends the target a link. When the target clicks on the link, it takes the target to a fake website which looks same as the real Facebook login page. The attacker convinces the target to log in through that page. When the target types his password and clicks the log in button, the password is instead send to attacker and the target is again redirected to the real website.

Here is a tutorial about phishing.

Step 1) First you must sign for a free webhosting service like www.byethost.com
And register your subdomain.
after signing you will have a subdomain like www.yourname.byethost.com

Step 2) Now login to your account go to "control panel" then in site management option go to "online file manager" and open the folder "htdocs".

Step 3) Now DOWNLOAD THIS FILE to your computer add extract the files inside it you will see folders named facebook, orkut etc choose which account you want to hack and open the folder, inside the folder you will find two files index.htm and pass.php.

Step 4) Now replace the index.htm file in the "htdocs" of the "online file manager" with the file index.htm of the phisher folder in your computer and also upload pass.php file in "htdocs" thats it! you are done.

Step 5) Now your homepage www.yourname.byethost.com has become a phisher. open it, you will see that your page www.yourname.byethost.com has become the login page of the site you want to hack.now all you have to do is send this link to the person whose account you want to hack.when he tries to login through it you will receive a file password.html in your "htdocs" folder of your phpnet.us account which contains the username and password of your victim.

Personal Note:- The attacker must have a very good convincing power to hack the facebook password with this method. Please try this method carefully as now it is widely known and the target may soon guess the attacker's intentions. The target may report the fake site and you may get in trouble.


3) HTTP SESSION HIJACKING (Cookie Stealing)

Tools needed:- FIRESHEEP software and a laptop, as this is a wireless Internet vulnerability.
Special skills needed:- No special skills is needed.
Main enemy :- Blacksheep 

This method is a bit less known but in recent months it has become widely popular due to the introduction of the software 'FIRESHEEP'. When you log in to your account at a website, your web browser sends your username and password to the website server. The password is first encrypted and then send over the network. Then the server checks the username and password against the database and if they both match then sends to the user's browser a "cookie" (a text which the browser uses for further requests to the web server) but unlike the password the cookies are not encrypted and are sent as it is over the network, this cookies can be easily captured as they travel through the network or a busy WI-FI. The newly released Firefox extension "FIRESHEEP" makes it more easy. Actually so easy that even a total nube can capture this cookies. For a detailed tutorial on Firesheep

PERSONAL NOTE:- The addon Firesheep had become very popular recently so software Blacksheep was developed which stops Firesheep.


4) SOCIAL ENGINEERING

Type :-Psychological
Special skills :- Patience and Confidence.
Main enemy:- intelligent target.

This is not a sure way of hacking facebook passwords but given the time and Patience can yield pretty interesting results.Social engineering attack means to gather information from the target or by using the prior knowledge of the target and then use it to hack the target's facebook password by guessing the password or resetting the password. Gather basic information about the target like 

• Birth date
• Mobile number
• The skill he is good at.
• favourite historical personality etc

and from this information try to guess the target password you will be surprised to see how many people have such guessable passwords.


Personal Note:- Though this is a effective method don't waste too much time in it as there are other aspects of social engineering which i am know presenting in front of you try them.


FORGOT PASSWORD HACK
Type:- it is a type of social engineering.
Special skills needed:- Logic.
Main enemy :- Intelligent targets.


Every social networking site has a password retrieval system to help the user in case he or she forget their password. Facebook also has a password retrieval system which can be wisely used to hack facebook accounts.

OPEN LETTER TO A WANNABE HACKER

by Elf Qrin - June, 4th 2000

I often receive e-mails from kids that ask me how to become a hacker. The same type of message can be read with the same frequency on the webboards of the hacking related websites.
This letter is addressed to them all.

Dear friend,
Hacking is something that must come from inside you. But is more than a simple instinct. Curiosity, and will to know, must be the engine that drives you. Read everything you find and try to put it into practice (within the limits of your and anyone else's safety). This is a good start.
When I was a kid myself, in the second half of the '80s, things were somehow better (not easier, anyway) for the ones who wanted to learn. Computer were just out from scientific and military labs to reach the homes of the common people, yet there were excellent little encyclopaedias that teached the basics of the way to work and to "think" of the computers. Every computer magazines used to teach how to program, including techniques so advanced that we'd call it "hacking", nowadays. That's because at that time only a few people knew how computer work, and that magazines were written by computer lovers for computer lovers. Or in other words, by almost hackers for almost wannabe hackers.
Today things are changed. The business grew, and the available information became more "commercial". Yet still there are many good books, especially about programming, but they only cover very specific subjects and they are very expensive (unless you live in India or in the Asian subcontinent). Thus, the information you may find for free on the Internet, is probably the only good way to learn.
The first thing for a hacker is to know his system. How it works. How information is stored. If you don't know those things, you'll only learn the rest superficially, and you will not able to adapt your knowledge to different situations, or to make new discoveries by yourself. It would be like a lesson learned by heart.
Another thing I consider necessary is to learn to program. Not just because you'll be able to write your own programs (and in a certain way you can... instruct the computer to your will), but mostly because programming will help you to learn how computers really work.
The most popular language is currently C, or better its derivate C++. But you'd better learn at least a little of everything, especially the new languages like Java, and may be a bit of machine language. But for a start, even the dear good Basic is fine, which is enough to learn the fundamental things. However is not the language which makes the programmer. A language can be learned in a few weeks, but programming techniques require years of experience.
Look for websites dedicated to programming, and download some listings (as we used to call the "source code"), study them to see how do they work, and modify them to get new effects or add new features.
See how other programs work. Find a better way to do a certain operation, and you have learned how to optimize.
And when in real life you'll get stuck with any problem, think if you can solve it with your computer, and if you are able to write a program to do that.
It can looks like a lot of things to you, but you are young, and you have time. Anyway, you need time to make your own experience. You can always ask advices on webboards or via e-mail about something you can't understand, but you'll have to learn the most of it by yourself. You can make things more exciting if you start learn hacking with a friend who shares your interests, so that you can "grow up" together, and swap ideas and new discovers.
Slowly, while your knowledge increases, you'll be able to find holes in the system by yourself, and may be think how to exploit those holes to your advantage.
Remember that the whole concept of hacking is to explore the boundaries and create something new, and possibly amazing. The fact that something has never been done before shouldn't stop you. On the contrary, you should take it as a challenge. Whenever you are wondering if something is possible, the correct answer is: "Just try it".
Believe me, we all learned this way, and I don't think there's a better way.

Game Hacking

Hacking Rune Scape Accounts? No Fair Play!

Thanks to the Internet, it isn't difficult to find hacking programs for Runescape. You won't have to spend days or months making a script in order to do so. You only need to find someone else who has done it, and who has published the program in his website. You may even find that they publish actualizations of their program!

However, what is the purpose of hacking Runescape accounts? They do it for money, fame, or simply the desire to cause trouble to the company that makes this online game? And what is Runescape? There's a lot to learn about, so let's learn more about the background behind Runescape account hacking.

What Is Runescape?

Runescape is a MMORPG. Due to its characteristics, it currently has nine million free players and more than 800,000 subscribers. However, why it is so popular? There are hundreds of single player games in the market, many of them free, and dozens of online games. Why does Runescape enjoy such an audience?

The main reason why this game enjoys such popularity is that it is programmed in JAVA. That means that you can play it in any OS platform: Windows, Linux or even in MAC OS. The second most important motive is that it can run from any internet browser capable of using JAVA. That means that it won't consume your machines resources.

The game takes place in the fantasy world of Gielinor, which is divided into several locations. People can travel through the game in different ways: by foot, through magical teleportation, or mechanical devices. Additionally, each region offers different quests and monsters. There is an additional issue, though. What is a MMORPG?

What Is A MMORPG?

MMORPG stands for Massive Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game. There are many of these games now available, thanks to the appearance of the internet. Basically, it is a virtual world in which you can play a determined character and interact with other people located in different parts of the planet.

The intention of the MMORPG is to acquire experience, or skills, in order to advance in the game. That way, your character acquires more knowledge and power, which can be used for acquiring better items and for fighting more difficult adversaries. In most of the cases, you need to pay a monthly fee for playing the game.

The revenue of this industry is, approximately, of US$1.3 billion, and it is expected to triplicate by the year 2009. Most of the gamers come from the United States, South Korea and China. Although MMORPG may be considered something new, they are quite old (in computer terms), since they go back to the mid 1990's.
