NJIA WANAZOTUMIA HACKERS KUIBA PASSWORD YAKO,JINSI YA KUJILINDA NA NAMNA YA KUIMALISHA USALAMA WA AKAUNTI YAKO,SOMA HAPA

Siku hizi watu wanaona kuhack ni kama fashion, au kama sifa. Wrong. Pengine ni kwa sababu nchini Tanzania hakuna sheria nzuri dhidi ya hackers wa websites (ambao sio wengi kwa sasa TZ) na wale wa accounts. Hawa wa accounts ndio kama utitiri kwa jinsi walivyozagaa. Mtu kachungulia password yako ulivyokuwa unaandika, baadae anaingia kwenye account yako and the next thing you know na yeye anajiita hacker. Seriously?

Anyway, back to the topic: Njia watumiazo hackers

1. Phising(inatamkwa “fishing”)

Hii ni njia ambayo hutumiwa na wengi sana hasa kama anayetaka kumdhuru siyo makini au hana ujuzi sana wa masuala ya technology. Nasema hivi kwa sababu mimi binafsi nimekuwa nikitumia njia hii kwa miaka kadhaa na kadri muda unavyozidi kwenda watu wanazidi kuelimika hivyo inapoteza nguvu.

Kinachofanyika kwenye phishing ni kwamba, hacker anatengeneza ukurasa unaofanana sasa sawia na ukurasa halisi wa website anayotaka kujua password yako. Mfano halisi ni facebook. Hacker atatengeneza ukurasa unaofanana na wa facebook kwa KILA KITU kiasi kwamba utashindwa kugundua tofauti yoyote ile (ipo, nitakuonyesha). Basi, wewe utakachofanya ni kuweka username yako na password kisha utalogin. Ule ukurasa feki utachukua username na password zako na kumpelekea yule hacker, kisha wewe utakupeleka kwenye ukurasa wako wa facebook. Kama kawaida.

Angalia hizi kurasa mbili:

FEKI

ORIGINAL

Utajiuliza, “anawezaje kutengeneza page inayofanana KAMA facebook yenyewe? It’s pretty easy actually lakini nikitoa maelekezo itakuwa kama ninachochea wizi, so…..NO.

Jinsi ya kujikinga:

It’s quite easy! Kama nilivyosema mwanzo. Hii trick ni kwa mtu asiye na uelewa sana na tech. Mambo ya kuangalia ni haya:

1. Address

Adress ya ukurasa feki siku zote itakuwa tofauti na original. The original facebook address ni www.facebook.com na address nyingine yoyote isiyo na address hiyo basi siyo original. Kuna vitu vingine vingi vinavyotofautisha page feki na halisi.Take a look below:

Tofauti za kuziona:

1. Address sio ya facebook. Angalia pale juu kwenye www utaona ni website nyingine kabisa

2.Page ya login ya facebook(sio homepage) ina title ya “login”(nimeelezea kwenye picha). Ila hii feki, au nyingine yoyote, ina title tofauti. Angalia tofauti ya muunganiko wa maneno.

3. Chini kwenye copyright napo ni tofauti. Kwenye page original copyright information inabadilika na mwaka ila ile feki mwaka ule iliyotengenezwa ndio hiyo hiyo.

4. Lugha zilizowekwa kwenye footer ni tofauti.

Hayo ni machache yanayoonekana kirahisi ambayo unaweza kuyachunguza. Hivyo, ukitumiwa link na ikakupeleka kwenye ukurasa wa facebook, usikimbilie tu kuweka details ila angalia hivyo vitu kwanza. Aliyekutumia anaweza akawa anataka kukuibia password tu.

2. Keylogging

Hii ni njia nyingine ambayo yenyewe ni ngumu kiasi kutambulika kwa haraka, lakini unaweza kujua. Keylogging yenyewe inatumia kitu kinaitwa keylogger ambayo ni software. Hacker anaiweka hiyo keylogger kwenye computer na yenyewe inachofanya ni kurecord keystrokes zinazochapwa kwenye keyboard. Let me explain:

Kila kitufe unachobonyeza kwenye keyboard kabla hata haujaona kwenye screen huwa kwenye binary form. Hii ni hupelekwa lugha ya computer inayotumia namba 0 na 1 tu. Ina maana, ukiandika labda “g”, kwenye computer inaenda kama 01100100 na kisha inakuwa interpreted halafu ndio inakuja kwenye screen sasa kama “g”. Hii inamaanisha, hata password yako ukiwa unaiandika, labda password yako ni ‘givenality’, kule itaenda kama 01000111010010010101011001000101010011100100000101001100010010010101010001011001 (hii sijabuni ila ndio neno ‘givenality’ lilivyo in binary language). Kwa vile ni password ina maana kule inakuwa interpreted halafu kwako itakuja kama **********. Sasa hizi keyloggers zinachofanya ni kwamba, punde baada ya kuwa interpreted, inazidaka herufi kabla hazijaja kwenye screen halafu ndio zinatokea pale kama *********. Ina maana,hacker yeye atakuacha uingie kwenye account yako kwenye hiyo computer, kisha yeye atakuja kwa urahisi tu na kufungua keylogger yake kuangalia imedaka nini na nini. “Ahaa!” Yes, ndio wanavyofanya, hivyo usiwe unajiaminisha kirahisi rahisi ukipewa computer/laptop na mtu tena hasa hapa Bongo na wewe unaenda tu.

Jinsi ya kujikinga:

Kila keylogger ina login screen ambayo aliyeiweka itabidi aweke password ndio aingie. Huwezi kuingia lakini unaweza kujua kama ipo. Kwenye windows, bonyeza Ctrl + Alt + Shift + M kwa wakati mmoja (zishikirie). Ukiona inakuja screen inataka uweke password, basi jua hiyo computer imewekewa keylogger na sio salama.

Hizo ndio njia kuu mbili ambazo hackers wengi hasa wa Tanzania hupenda kutumia, especially wale wanaojifunza. Kwa vile sasa hivi umeshajua na jinsi ya kujilinda, account zako hazitakuwa na matatizo tena. 

3. Stealer's

 Almost 80% percent people use stored passwords in their browser to access the Facebook. This is quite convenient, wakati fulani inaweza ikawa extremely dangerous. Stealer's are software's specially designed to capture the saved passwords stored in the victims Internet browser.

4. Session Hijacking

 Mara nyingi hii inatokea kama unaaccessing Facebook on a http (non secure) connection.In Session Hijacking attack, a hacker steals the victims browser cookie which is used to authenticate the user on a website, and use it to access the victims account. Session hijacking is widely used on LAN, and WiFi connections. 

5. Sidejacking With Firesheep

Sidejacking attack went common in late 2010, however it's still popular now a days. Firesheep is widely used to carry out sidejacking attacks. Firesheep only works when the attacker and victim is on the same WiFi network. A sidejacking attack is basically another name for http session hijacking, but it's more targeted towards WiFi users.

6. Mobile Phone Hacking

 Ma milioni ya watu wanaotumia facebook wanaaccess kupitia simu zao. In case the hacker can gain access to the victims mobile phone then he can probably gain access to his/her Facebook account. Their are a lots of Mobile Spying softwares used to monitor a Cellphone. The most popular Mobile Phone Spying software's are: Mobile Spy, and Spy Phone Gold.

7. DNS Spoofing

If both the victim and attacker are on the same network, an attacker can use a DNS spoofing attack and change the original Facebook page to his own fake page and hence can get access to victims Facebook account.

8. USB Hacking

If an attacker has physical access to your computer, he could just insert a USB programmed with a function to automatically extract saved passwords in the Internet browser.

9. Man In the Middle Attacks

If the victim and attacker are on the same LAN and on a switch based network, a hacker can place himself between the client and the server, or he could act as a default gateway and hence capturing all the traffic in between.

10. Botnets

Botnets are not commonly used for hacking Facebook accounts, because of it's high setup costs. They are used to carry more advanced attacks. A Botnet is basically a collection of compromised computer. The infection process is same as the key logging, however a Botnet gives you additional options for carrying out attacks with the compromised computer. Some of the most popular Botnets include Spyeye and Zeus.

  Jinsi ya kutengeneza Password nzuri na salama

 

 Mara nyingi watu wamekuwa wakiibiwa account zao za mitandao kutokana na kutumia password isiyokuwa na protection ya kutosha. Wengi hudhani kuna ni ujuzi wa aliyeiba password ndio umesababisha hilo lakini honestly, ni wewe mwenyewe.Katika dunia hii, ukiachana na Tanzania, Internet security imekuwa ni jambo ambalo wegi huwa hawalipi kipaumbele na huishia kutengeneza password ambayo ‘ataikumbuka kirahisi’. Ok so may be utaandika labda “mnazimmoja” au “walinazi” kwa sehemu unayoishi au chakula ukipendacho.
But, does that mean hii password haiwezi kuwa nzuri zaidi? Mambo ya kuzingatia utengenezapo password ni haya:
1. UREFU WA PASSWORD YENYEWE
Password nzuri inabidi ianzie herufi 8 kuendelea. Kadri password yako inavyozidi kuwa ndefu ndio kidogo strength inaongezeka na inamuwia vigumu mtu mwingine kuotea. Maneno mafupi kama “matairi” au “given” si salama kutumia kama password, be creative!
2. USITUMIE MANENO YALIYOZOELEKA
KAMWE! Epuka kabisa kutumia maneno yaliyozoeleka. Sio tu kwa sababu mtu anaweza kuotea kwa urahisi ila kwa sababu pengine sio mtu anayeotea, pengine ni computer. Kuna kitu fulani tunakiita “Dictionary Attack“, hii ni tool ambayo hujaribu KILA NENO lililopo kwenye dictionary kwenye sehemu ya password.
So kwa mfano username yako ni “givenality”(ambayo inaonekana na kila mtu, obviously), mtu ataenda kwenye login na kuandika kwenye sehemu ya username “givenality” na kwenye sehemu ya password atafungulia hiyo tool ambayo itajaribu kila neno kwenye dictionary. Unaona ninachomaanisha eeh?
Na ndio maana nashauri kamwe usitumie neno lililo sahihi gramatically (kosea hata spelling kwa makusudi!). Personally nimeiboresha hii tool na inajaribu mpaka maneno ya kiswahili na aina za vyakula, mboga, etc (hehehe!)
HIZI NI BAADHI YA PASSWORD ZINAZOTUMIKA SANA KWENYE INTERNET MIONGONI MWA WABONGO: 

password
123456
12345678
1234
qwerty
12345
facebook
tanzania
112233
football
ufunguo
abcd
696969
abc123
(jina la kwanza)
(jina la pili)
master
jennifer
111111
jordan
superman
1234567
3. USIIHUSISHE PASSWORD YAKO NA WEWE
Ni jambo ya kawaida kwa watanzania wengi kutumia password either majina ya watoto wao, mwaka wa kuzaliwa, mke/mume/ au majina yake mawili. Si salama. Kwanini? Ni kwa sababu yule jirani yako akitaka kuingia kwenye account yako password za kwanza atakazojaribu ni hizo.
Baada ya kuzingatia hivyo, twende sasa kwenye mbinu za kutengeneza password nzuri.
I: NJIA NDEFU NA NZURI ZAIDI
1. Tunga mpangilio wa maneno/sentensi, kisha cheza nao Fikiria kuhusu sentensi unayoweza kuikumbuka kirahisi (relax, hatutatumia sentensi yote). Kwa mfano:
“Katika watanzania ambao hawajawahi kupanda ndege mimi nimo”
Ukishapata sentensi kama hiyo chukua herufi ya kwanza ya kila neno kwenye sentensi. Hivyo:
“kwahkdmn”
Sasa hivi imeanza kuwa nzuri na inayokumbukika, na ina herufi 8!
2. ONGEZA NA NAMBA KUIBORESHA
Password yetu “kwahkdnm” ni nzuri, na kufikia hapo, Dictionary-attack haiwezi kuipata (wala yangu niliyoboresha haiwezi pia!) ila tunaweza kuboresha zaidi na namba. Unaweza kuweka namba labda mwanzoni, mwishoni, au hata katikati. Mfano;
“1kwah2kdmn3”
Password ni ile ile ila nimeongeza namba 123 mwanzoni, katikati, na mwishoni. Nimeanza na namba, nikaandika herufi 4, nikaweka namba tena, kisha nikaandika herufi zilizobaki, na nikamalizia na namba tena! Kuna ambaye anaweza kuotea hiyo? Ukiachilia namba 123, unaweza weka mwaka wa kuzaliwa au namba mgongoni za wachezaji wa simba/yanga unaowapenda, baadhi ya tarakimu kwenye namba yako ya simu, n.k.
3. WEKA ALAMA NYINGINE ZA ZIADA

Kama umeridhika kufikia hatua ya pili, ni sawa pia. Lakini kama unataka yenye nguvu, tuendelee. Sasa, unaweza weka zile alama zitumiwazo mara chache sana. Labda kama asilimia (%) au kiulizo (?) au dola ($). Mimi nitatumia mshangao (!). Hivyo basi;
“1kwah2!kdmn3”
Notice nimeweka alama ya mshangao katikati baada ya namba “2″.
Imetulia. Unaweza kuendelea? Twende!
4. HERUFI KUBWA NA NDOGO
Hii ndio hatua ya mwisho itakayopendezesha password. Changanya herufi kubwa na ndogo. Unaweza kuamua haerufi ya kwanza na ya mwisho ziwe kubwa. Mfano;
“1Kwah2!kdmN3”
Kuna mtu dunia hii anaweza kuotea password hiyo?
Sasa password yetu imekamilika!!
II NJIA FUPI, SALAMA PIA.
Kama wewe huwezi kukumbuka password ya namna hiyo basi tumia njia hii ambayo ni salama pia, lakini sio kama ya kwanza kwa sababu hauna tarakimu:
1.Tafuta Maneno Mawili Mafupi
Kama hatua za juu ni ngumu au huwezi kumudu kukumbuka namna hizo, tafuta maneno mawili mafupi au moja refu. Mfano:
“majani”, “mabichi”
Kisha yaunganishe hayo maneno, hence:
“majanimabichi”
2. Replace baadhi ya herufi na namba
Chukua password yako, (in our case, “majanimabichi”) then katika baadhi ya herufi badilishana na namba. Mfano:-
“m4j4n1m4b1ch1“
Hapo juu herufi zote za “a” nimezibadilisha na namba “4″ (huwa nachukulia A na 4 zinafanana, so haitakuwa kazi kukumbuka). Pia i nimeibadilisha na 1. Password imekamilika! Unaweza ukawa mjanja na kuchanganya herufi kubwa na ndogo ili iwe ngumu zaidi.
Kwa mimi ningeshauri utumie njia ya kwanza kwa sababu ndio nzuri zaidi. Itaichukua computer muda mrefu zaidi kubashiri password iliyotengenezwa kwa njia ya kwanza kuliko ya pili.

Remover 6.8.4 Build 2610 Full Patch | Free Download |

Labels: Antivirus

Trojan Remover aids in the removal of Malware – Trojan Horses, Worms, Adware, Spyware – when standard anti-virus software either fails to detect them or fails to effectively eliminate them. Standard antivirus programs are good at detecting this Malware, but not always so good at effectively removing it. Trojan Remover is designed specifically

to disable/remove Malware without the user having to manually edit system files or the Registry. The program also removes the additional system modifications some Malware carries out which are ignored by standard antivirus and trojan scanners. Trojan Remover scans ALL the files loaded at boot time for Adware, Spyware, Remote Access Trojans, Internet Worms and other malware. Trojan Remover also checks to see if Windows loads Services which are hidden by Rootkit techniques and warns you if it finds any. For each identified Trojan Horse, Worm, or other malware, Trojan Remover pops up an alert screen which shows the file location and name; it offers to remove the program’s reference from the system files and allows you to rename the file to stop its activation.

 What Trojan Remover Does

• Trojan Remover examines all the system files, the Windows Registry and the programs and files loaded at boot time. The majority of malicious programs (once triggered) load this way.
• Trojan Remover scans ALL the files loaded at boot time for Adware, Spyware, Remote Access Trojans, Internet Worms and other malware. Trojan Remover also checks to see if Windows loads Services which are hidden by Rootkit techniques and warns you if it finds any.
• For each identified Trojan Horse, Worm, or other malware, Trojan Remover pops up an alert screen which shows the file location and name; it offers to remove the program's reference from the system files and allows you to rename the file to stop its activation.
• Most modern Malware programs are memory-resident, which makes their de-activation more difficult. How many times have you been told to start your computer in 'Safe' mode, or even worse, in DOS? Trojan Remover does all this for you. When it finds Malware that is memory-resident, Trojan Remover automatically re-starts (on request) your system and completely DISABLES the Malware before Windows restarts.
• Trojan Remover writes a detailed logfile every time it performs a scan. This logfile contains information on which programs load at boot-time, and what (if any) actions Trojan Remover carried out. The logfile can be viewed and printed using Notepad.
• The FastScan component of Trojan Remover is set to automatically scan for Malware every time you start your PC (you can disable this if you wish). You can also run the FastScan manually any time you wish (START | Programs | Trojan Remover | FastScan). This FastScan checks all program-loading points - it is a quick and effective check for actively-loading malicious programs.
• You can scan the whole drive, or any directories on the drive, by selecting Scan a Drive/Directory from the main Trojan Remover menu.
• You can scan individual files and directories from within Windows Explorer.
• Trojan Remover incorporates an integral Updater allowing for quick and easy Database updates. You can use the Windows Task Scheduler to schedule automatic updates.

 

Difference Between Windows 7 & Windows 8

Labels: Window

Over the last few months, we have covered a number of tips and guides on Microsoft’s latest Windows operating system. Now that Windows 8 and Windows 8 powered PCs and tablets are up for pre-order, many users are asking one simple question: should I upgrade to Windows 8?

To get an answer for the above question, you need to first understand the new features introduced with Windows 8 and difference between Windows 7 and Windows 8.

Microsoft has introduced hundreds of new features with Windows 8 and most of them are pretty good. While some features are big & quickly noticeable, there are many features that come across as you start using the new operating system.

The below chart breaks down key differences between Windows 7 and Windows 8:

Setting up a DHCP server in Windows 2003

The DHCP server assigns a client an IP address taken from a predefined scope for a given amount of time. If an IP address is required for longer than the lease has been set for, the client must request an extension before the lease expires. If the client has not requested an extension on the lease time, the IP address will be considered free and can be assigned to another client. If the user wishes to change IP address then they can do so by typing "ipconfig /release", followed by "ipconfig /renew" in the command prompt. This will remove the current IP address and request a new one. Reservations can be defined on the DHCP server to allow certain clients to have their own IP address (this will be discussed a little later on). Addresses can be reserved for a MAC address or a host name so these clients will have a fixed IP address that is configured automatically. Most Internet Service Providers use DHCP to assign new IP addresses to client computers when a customer connects to the internet - this simplifies things at user level.

The above diagram diplays a simple structure consisting of a DHCP server and a number of client computers on a network.

The DHCP Server itself contains an IP Address Database which holds all the IP addresses available for distribution. If the client (a member of the network with a Windows 2000 Professional/XP operating system, for example) has "obtain an IP address automatically" enabled in TCP/IP settings, then it is able to receive an IP address from the DHCP server.

Setting up a DHCP Server

This will serve as a step-by-step guide on how to setup a DHCP server.
Installing the DHCP server is made quite easy in Windows 2003. By using the "Manage your server" wizard, you are able to enter the details you require and have the wizard set the basics for you. Open to "Manage your server" wizard, select the DHCP server option for the list of server roles and press Next.
You will be asked to enter the name and description of your scope.

Scope: A scope is a collection of IP addresses for computers on a subnet that use DHCP.

The next window will ask you to define the range of addresses that the scope will distribute across the network and the subnet mask for the IP address. Enter the appropriate details and click next.

You are shown a window in which you must add any exclusions to the range of IP addresses you specified in the previous window. If for example, the IP address 10.0.0.150 is that of the company router then you won't want the DHCP server to be able to distribute that address as well. In this example I have excluded a range of IP addresses, 10.0.0.100 to 10.0.0.110, and a single address, 10.0.0.150. In this case, eleven IP's will be reserved and not distributed amongst the network clients.

It is now time to set the lease duration for how long a client can use an IP address assigned to it from this scope. It is recommended to add longer leases for a fixed network (in the office for example) and shorter leases for remote connections or laptop computers. In this example I have set a lease duration of twelve hours since the network clients would be a fixed desktop computer in a local office and the usual working time is eight hours.

You are given a choice of whether or not you wish to configure the DHCP options for the scope now or later. If you choose Yes then the upcoming screenshots will be of use to you. Choosing No will allow you to configure these options at a later stage.

The router, or gateway, IP address may be entered in next. The client computers will then know which router to use.

In the following window, the DNS and domain name settings can be entered. The DNS server IP address will be distributed by the DHCP server and given to the client.

If you have WINS setup then here is where to enter the IP Address of the WINS server. You can just input the server name into the appropriate box and press "Resolve" to allow it to find the IP address itself.

The last step is to activate the scope - just press next when you see the window below. The DHCP server will not work unless you do this.

The DHCP server has now been installed with the basic settings in place. The next stage is to configure it to the needs of your network structure.

Configuring a DHCP server

advertisement

Hereunder is a simple explanation of how to configure a DHCP server.

The address pool displays a list of IP ranges assigned for distribution and IP address exclusions. You are able to add an exclusion by right clicking the address pool text on the left hand side of the mmc window and selecting "new exclusion range". This will bring up a window (as seen below) which will allow you to enter an address range to be added. Entering only the start IP will add a single IP address.

DHCP servers permit you to reserve an IP address for a client. This means that the specific network client will have the same IP for as long as you wanted it to. To do this you will have to know the physical address (MAC) of each network card. Enter the reservation name, desired IP address, MAC address and description - choose whether you want to support DHCP or BOOTP and press add. The new reservation will be added to the list. As an example, I have reserved an IP address (10.0.0.115) for a client computer called Andrew.

If you right click scope options and press "configure options" you will be taken to a window in which you can configure more servers and their parameters. These settings will be distributed by the DHCP server along with the IP address. Server options act as a default for all the scopes in the DHCP server. However, scope options take preference over server options.

In my opinion, the DHCP server in Windows 2003 is excellent! It has been improved from the Windows 2000 version and is classified as essential for large networks. Imagine having to configure each and every client manually - it would take up a lot of time and require far more troubleshooting if a problem was to arise. Before touching any settings related to DHCP, it is best to make a plan of your network and think about the range of IPs to use for the computers.

Shrinking the system partition by using the command line

Extending a partition or volume can be done via the CLI, or command line interface. In order to do that perform the following steps:
1. Click Start and type CMD, then press Enter. It is best to run the Command Prompt as an Administrator. To do so, right-click CMD and select "Run as Administrator".
BTW, you can also hover over the CMD line and press CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER to invoke the "Run as Administrator" shortcut.
2. In the command prompt type

Diskpart

3. Select the right disk drive and partition to work on. Typically, in Windows 7, this should be disk 0 and partition 2, but please make sure you do select the right disk and partition before continuing. You can do so by performing a LIST operation to view your existing disks and partitions BEFORE attempting to expand the wrong partition.

List disk
Select disk 0
List partition
Select partition 2

4. When the right disk and partitions were selected, run the SHRINK command which reduces the size of the volume with focus by the specified amount, and makes free disk space available from unused space at the end of the volume.
SHRINK has some parameters we need to talk about:
DESIRED=<N> - Specifies the desired amount of space in megabytes (MB) to reduce the size of the volume by. If a desired amount is not specified, the volume will be reduced by the maximum amount of free space available on the volume.
MINIMUM=<N> - Specifies the minimum amount of space in MB to reduce the size of the volume by.
QUERYMAX - Returns the maximum number of bytes that the volume can be reduced by (the free space available on the volume). This value may change if applications are currently accessing the volume.
If a MINIMUM amount is not specified, the volume will be reduced by either the DESIRED amount (if specified), or by the maximum amount of free space available on the volume. If a MINIMUM amount is specified but not enough free space is available, the command will fail. This command works on basic volumes, and on simple or spanned dynamic volumes. You can reduce the size of a volume only if it is formatted using the NTFS file system or if it does not have a file system.

For example:

Shrink QUERYMAX

The above command will return the maximum number of bytes that the volume can be reduced.

shrink DESIRED=500 MINIMUM=250

Will shrink the partition by 500 MB, if possible, and if it cannot shrink by 500 MB, it will at least attempt to shrink it by 250 MB.

shrink DESIRED=10000

Will shrink the partition by 10000 MB.

5. You may check the new partition size by running the list command, again.

List partition

6. You must now exit DISKPART by using the Exit command.

Exit

Shrinking the system partition by using the GUI

1. Log on as an Administrator.
2. Go to Control Panel > System and Maintenance > Administrative Tools > Computer Management. You can also open the Computer Management application by using the Computer context menu. Select Computer Management.

In fact, you can go directly to the Disk Management MMC snap-in by typing diskmgmt.msc in the Start's search box or on the Run command.

If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
3. Expand the Storage section, and in it go to the Disk Management console.

4. Select the disk you want to shrink, for example Drive C.
5. Right-click the disk and select Shrink Volume.

6. Process will take a few moments, while the system is looking at the partition structure. Note that it would be best to make sure that that partition was properly defragmented prior to trying to shrink it.

7. When calculation is done, the UI will display the largest amount of space that can be trimmed from the selected partition. Please note, again, that this size is related to the actual amount of free space on that partition (i.e. you cannot shrink more that there is free space), and the amount of file fragmentation on that partition.

Enter the amount in MB and click on the Shrink button.

8. The process will finish quite quickly, and a reboot is NOT required. You can notice the new partition size. Also note that you now have a remaining unused part on the hard drive.

 

SPYWARE,MALWARE.HIJACKERS AND DIALERS

There are a lot of PC users that know little about "Spyware", "Mal-ware", "hijackers", "Dialers" & many more. This will help you avoid pop-ups, spammers and all those baddies.

What is spy-ware?
Spy-ware is Internet jargon for Advertising Supported software (Ad-ware). It is a way for shareware authors to make money from a product, other than by selling it to the users. There are several large media companies that offer them to place banner ads in their products in exchange for a portion of the revenue from banner sales. This way, you don't have to pay for the software and the developers are still getting paid. If you find the banners annoying, there is usually an option to remove them, by paying the regular licensing fee.

Known spywares
There are thousands out there, new ones are added to the list everyday. But here are a few:
Alexa, Aureate/Radiate, BargainBuddy, ClickTillUWin, Conducent Timesink, Cydoor, Comet Cursor, eZula/KaZaa Toptext, Flashpoint/Flashtrack, Flyswat, Gator, GoHip, Hotbar, ISTbar, Lions Pride Enterprises/Blazing Logic/Trek Blue, Lop (C2Media), Mattel Brodcast, Morpheus, NewDotNet, Realplayer, Songspy, Xupiter, Web3000, WebHancer, Windows Messenger Service.

How can I find out the Administrator password in Windows 7?

Passwords….something we are going to have deal with as one of our common annoyances for some time to come. Their necessary evil provides another layer of protection for your bank, your online shopping, your tax software and of course the entire operating system. We have so many passwords these days, that we have websites and password managers like LockCrypt and Clipperz, dedicated solely at helping you manage your passwords.

Even with the ability to store and retrieve your security, it does no good if the operating system is inaccessible. Ignoring your PC for a few years, removing a computer from a domain, or simply needing administrative rights on a PC are just a few reasons that the admin password may need to be reset. With Microsoft’s improved security over the last few years, it became more difficult to resent Windows administrator password. However, there are still several ways to get around it and I am bringing you three of the easiest ways to reset forgotten windows password for XP, Vista and Server 2003.

1. Reset Windows Admin Password with Ubuntu

Ubuntu has become, far and away, the most popular distribution of Linux in the world. Its ease of installation and use makes it the ‘go to’ operating system for an open source alternative. In this case you don’t even have to install the OS. You simply use the Live CD that is included with the burned ISO of Ubuntu.

Here are the instructions for resetting the Windows administrator password using Ubuntu Linux.

(Internet Connection Required)

1. Go to Ubuntu and download the latest ISO of the operating system.

2. Use one of the free ISO burning applications to create a bootable Ubuntu CD. Of course you’ll need another PC in order to do this.

3. Use the Live Ubuntu CD to boot into the live version of the OS.

4. Go to System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager.

5. Then Settings>Repositories

6. Once the ‘Software Sources’ window appears, make sure you select ‘Software restricted by copyright or legal issues’, then click close.

7. Click reload on synaptic package manager.

8. Click Search, and type in ‘chntpw’.

9. Once the ‘chntpw’ app is found, right-click on it and ‘mark for installation’.

10. Click “Apply on Summary Window” and also to confirm changes.

**Remember an internet connection is required for the above steps. If there is no availability for a connection, a USB flash drive will be required.**

12. Next, we must mount the Windows drive. In Ubuntu, go to Places> Select the appropriate drive.

13. The final step of the process is actually resetting the password via the Linux terminal.

14. In Ubuntu go to Applications>Accessories>Terminal.

15. Type ‘cd /media/disk/WINDOWS/system32/config/’ in the terminal window.

16. Type ‘sudo chntpw SAM’

17. This by default will change the Administrator password. If you would prefer to change a particular user. Type ‘sudo chntpw -u username SAM’.

18. Afterwards, you’ll see a long display of information, most of which can be ignored.

19. The next step is to actually reset the windows password. It is recommended to make the password blank with an asterisk * .

20. You’ll then have to confirm the change with a Y, and reboot.

2. With Barts PreInstalled Environment

Bart’s PreInstalled Environment has been a popular method on offline troubleshooting for Windows System Administrators for some time now whether it be for disk recovery, malware removal or in this instance, password removal. It’s a bootable operating system, just like the Ubuntu Live CD, but with more of a Windows-like feel.

Below are the instructions for using a small EXE file called Password Renew within the PE environment.

(XP CD Required – If your Windows drive is SATA, you may need to follow additional instructions on the PEBuilder site)

1. Go Bart’s website and download the ISO for the PreInstalled Environment.

2. Download Password Renew.

3. Open PEBuilder and for the Windows directory, select the location of the i386 directory on your XP disk. Under the custom directory, select the directory that holds the PasswordRenew.exe file. Select a title for your CD and finally create a name for your ISO file. I’d recommend creating an ISO over burning directly to the CD, because of problems that may arise.

4. Browse to the A43 File Management Utility.

5. Once there, you should browse your CD drive and find your custom directory created in step three.

6. Open Password Renew.

7. This program is very straight forward. Simply press ‘Select Target’ and browse to your Windows directory.

8. Once there, you can will see options to reset a password, create a new administrator or convert a current user to an administrator.

9. You will then have the option to install there after.

10. Reboot, and changes will be applied.

3. With Offline NT Password Disk (Google Cache)

Offline NT Password Disk is a very simple and very fast command line Linux tool to reset your forgotten Windows administrator password. At the time of this writing the site was down, hence the Google Cache link.

1. Download the bootable CD image.

2. Burn the ISO to a CD with one of the ISO burning applications, as we stated before.

3. Boot up your PC with the bootable CD.

4. Drivers for both SATA and IDE drivers typically load automatically.

5. Select the location of your Windows Operating System.

6. Select windows/system32/config as your directory.

7. Select “Password Reset” as your option.

8. I would recommend to reset as a ‘blank password’. This works best.

9. Once blanked, press ‘q’ to quit and write the values to the registry.

As you can see, the dread of forgetting your Windows administrator password can typically be put behind you. These are just a few of the options to reset that hard to remember nemesis, but they are a few of the simplest.

Give us some of your best options for resetting your Windows passwords.

  How to Defrag a Hard Drive

A little preventative maintenance goes a long way when it comes to your Windows-based PCs. All Windows operating systems come with tools that you can use to help keep your computer running in top shape. One such tool is the Disk Defragmenter (defragment), which works to optimize fragmented files on the hard disk drive.
Fragmentation describes the condition of your hard disk drive when
files are divided into pieces and scattered around the disk. Fragmentation occurs naturally when you use a disk frequently, just by doing basic tasks like creating, deleting and modifying files.

At some point, the operating system needs to store parts of a file in noncontiguous clusters. This is entirely invisible to you, but it can slow down the speed at which data is accessed because the disk drive must search through different parts of the disk to put together a single file. In a nutshell, the Disk Defragmenter will optimize a disk by unfragmenting the stored files.

How Disk Defragmenter Works

When you run the Disk Defragmenter it will perform several tasks. The application will locate fragments of files stored in different locations on the disk and then copy them into a single continuous file at a point on the disk that has enough free space. It then compares the two files and updates the Master File Table (MFT). After writing to the MFT, the Disk Defragmenter will then delete the old fragmented file and the MFT is again updated with the new free space information.

How to Access the Disk Defragmenter

In Windows XP or Windows Vista you can access the Disk Defragmenter tool through the following steps:

• Click Start, select All Programs, select Accessories, select System Tools, click Disk Defragmenter. (or)
• Open your Windows Explorer and view all drives. Right click on the drive you want to defragment and select Properties. In the Tools tab choose Disk Defragmenter.

In the Disk Defragmenter tool box, you'll need to select the hard drives you want to defragment. In Windows XP you can Analyze the drive first. A user interface will show you the progress as you run Disk Defragmenter. In Windows Vista there is no graphical view of the progress as the application works.

Screenshots showing how to access Disk Defragmenter in Windows Vista (above) and Windows XP. (Click images for larger screens)

It May Take a While

The Disk Defragmenter tool can take anywhere from minutes to hours to run, depending on the size of your hard drive and also how fragmented the drive is. One way to run the Disk Defragmenter and not lose any computing time is to leave the system and run the Disk Defragmenter during a time when the system can be left on but is not be in use (e.g., 3 or 4 a.m.). You can simply use the steps above to launch Disk Defragmenter when your computing tasks are done for the day or you can have the Windows Task Scheduler automatically run the Disk Defragmenter on a certain day and time each week or month. In Windows XP or Windows Vista you can access the Task Scheduler tool through the following steps: Click Start, select All Programs, select Accessories, select System Tools, click Task Scheduler.

Tips for Getting the Best Results

• Ensure you have no applications running when you start the Disk Defragmenter. If you system is accessing applications the Defragmenter will not stay running. Be sure to turn off your screensaver also.
• Delete your Temporary Internet Files and other files you do not use. You can also uninstall unused programs. In the Properties tab of your hard drive you can access "Disk Cleanup," which will help you get rid of unused and unnecessary files.
• Run the Disk Defragmenter at regular intervals. However you can also run the tool if you add a lot of files to the disk at one time or find you are running low on disk space.
