How To Find IP Address of your Gtalk or Chat friends via Email

Track IP address of your friends computer with an easy to use service provided by SpyPig.
Guys over there at Spypig make use of the same technology spammers use to see if your email is real and actively read. 

Thinking of how this is done? 
Spammers first extract email address from different websites comment section or directly from the contact address or mailto: links. Then they build a list of these email id’s and sends out emails randomly to all of them. Spammers embed images in their emails. Once you open your email, the image loads and, a unique identifier is sent back to the spammer letting them know that yours is a valid email address.


Here we use this same technique to find the I.P address of your friend's computer. Just follow these simple steps.

How to Flush DNS in Windows, Mac and Linux

When do you want flush DNS (Domain Name System)?

You visit one of the most frequently viewed websites in your list and find it’s not loading up, it could be very frustrating at times.

The site can be down for more than one reason, the most common one being, the remote server being down. To ensure if the server is up, ping the server directly, and the response tells you the status.

Let’s assume that the servers working fine, but still the site does not load up in your browser! DNS failure can be the cause. And this us a common case if server is relocated and/or the site is moved on to a new server, as DNS propagation normally takes anywhere from 24 – 72 hrs to propagate and work fine.

This scenario is also true when you set up new domain on a server.

If the site fails to show up even after 72 hrs, you may have to clear your DNS cache to ensure the request is not going to the old ips of the site you are trying to load.

Clearing DNS cache will ensure your PC does not have old records of bad DNS entries. If the bad entries are not flushed then you need to wait up to 24 hours for it to be dropped from the cache automatically, which is a scheduled activity in some computers.

The following list gives you the set of commands to flush DNS on different platforms:

Increase Torrent Download Speed By Half Open Patch

Increase your torrent download speed by allowing more more concurrent half-open connections. By default Windows limits the number of half open connections to 10. This limit is entered by company Microsoft trying to make slower virus spreading from infect computer and cut down opportunities of participation of a computer in DOS attacks.

This limit imposed by windows on the half open connections could be removed by patching the TCPIP.sys file. Patching the TCPIP could sometimes cause problems with certain routers like frequent auto restarting. So use this patch only as a final resort.

Hide in the (Network) Neighbourhood

Don't want your XP computer to show up in the network browse list (Network Neighborhood/My Network Places) to other users on your network? One way to accomplish that is to disable file sharing.

To do this, click Start, right click My Network Places and select Properties.

Right click your local area connection and click Properties.

Uncheck the box that says File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks.

Click OK.


But what if you want to be able to share folders with some users; you just don't want everyone on the network to see your computer's shares? There's a way:

Click Start and select Run.

In the Run box, type net config server /hidden:yes

Click OK.

Now others who know the UNC path (\ \ computer name\ share name) can connect to your computer's shares from the Run box, but it won't show up in the network browse list.

GMail Drive

GMail Drive is a free third-party Windows Shell namespace extension ("add-on") for Google's Gmail. It allows a user to access a virtual drive stored in a Gmail e-mail account by causing the contents of the Gmail account to appear as a new network share on the user's workstation. In order to use this add-on, the user needs a Gmail e-mail account. The add-on enables the user to use the standard Windows desktop file copy and paste commands to transfer files to and from the Gmail account as if it were a drive on the user's computer. In order for GMail Drive to operate, the computer must be connected to the Internet and the user must have a Gmail account. A broadband connection is preferable though not necessary, as all operations are done through Gmail and consequently over the Internet. GMail Drive uses the inbox of the Gmail account to store files and creates a virtual filesystem on top of the Gmail account, enabling the user to save and retrieve files stored on the Gmail account directly from inside Windows Explorer. GMail Drive adds a new virtual drive to the computer under the My Computer folder, where the user can create new folders, copy and drag-and-drop files to, but does not give an actual drive letter, such as C:, preventing its use in all DOS applications, and some older Windows applications. Download GMail Drive from Softpedia Feel free to post comments.

Installing Windows Server 2008 Administrative Tools on Windows Vista SP1

With the release of products Windows Server 2008 and Windows Vista SP1 Microsoft removed the old management tools and other features that shipped with RTM Windows Vista. When you install Service Pack 1(SP1) on Windows Vista you will notice that the Group Policy Management Client (GPMC.msc) and other Windows features are no longer available in the operating system.This is because these Windows features have been uninstalled or removed permanently from your system after installing Windows Vista Service Pack 1(SP1). Microsoft replaced the old utilities and features of Windows Vista with updated version in the Remote Server Administrative Tools (RSAT) package.You can download the Remote Server Administrative Tools (RSAT) from the links given here. Download the 32-bit version for Vista SP1 Download the 64-bit version for Vista SP1 Once you have downloaded and installed the Remote Server Administrative Tools (RSAT) in Windows Vista you need to turn these features on.The steps for this is given below: • Open Windows Vista Control Panel and go to Programs and Features. • Click on the option Turn Windows features on or off located on the side menu. • Check Remote Server Administrative Tools and hit OK.

Speed Up Network Browsing

When you use My Network Places to browse for other machines on your network, it usually takes a long time to display the list of shared resources for the target machine. This is because Windows XP first checks for the scheduled tasks on the target machine before listing the shared resources present on the computer. To schedule a task using Windows XP’s Scheduled Tasks, choose Start –>Programs –> Accessories–> System Tools–> Scheduled Tasks. This unnecessary checking can easily add 30 seconds of delay. You can decrease the time browsing takes by modifying the Registry to turn off this checking: Invoke the Registry Editor by typing regedit at the command line or in run window. Open the Registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ Remote Computer\NameSpaceDelete the following key (the value for it is the Scheduled Tasks) {D6277990-4C6A-11CF-8D87-00AA0060F5BF}Close the Registry and reboot

By-Pass Firewalls

How can you hack a Firewall? Well, there is a useful tool called Trivial FTP (TFTP) which can be used by a attacker to hack firewalls. How does it work? While scanning UDP ports, you will want to pay close attention to systems with port 69 open. Cicso routers allow the use of TFTP in conjunction with network servers to read and write configuration files. The configuration files are updated whenever a router configuration is changed. If you can identify TFTP, there is a good chance that you can access the configuration file and download it. Here are the basic steps:- (1) Determine the router’s name. NSLookup or Ping –a can be useful. c: \>ping -a 192.168.13.1 Pinging Router1 [192.168.13.1] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 192.168.13.1: bytes=32 time<10ms ttl="255
Reply from 192.168.13.1: bytes=32 time<10ms ttl="255
Reply from 192.168.13.1: bytes=32 time<10ms ttl="255
Reply from 192.168.13.1: bytes=32 time<10ms ttl="255
Ping statistics for 192.168.13.1:
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms
(2) After the router’s name is known, you can then use TFTP to download it from the TFTP server.
c:\>tftp -I 192.168.13.1 GET router1.cfg
Transfer successful: 250 bytes in 1 second, 250 bytes/s
(3) If you are lucky, you will be rewarded with the router’s configuration file.
