Well when i mean the word
HACKit meaning is taken in the classical sense . well i blame the media to actually turn the meaning the word to something very different and diabolical. Well technically hacker is a person who understand the computer more than a mediocre computer techie.
the intentions are very different than what people think . well a cracker is the one who enter the systems and messes with it .but hackers just figure out the loop hole and mention it to the responsible person to fix it.
Well recently my cousin had forgotten the user login password and could enter the system at all , no matter whatever she did.then i get a call at 2am in the morning saying that the systems is locked and rahul u gotta do something about it.well i was completely freaked out that time and somehow managed to get her residence at that moment . Well there way only two ways to enter the system ,
1. You cram very very very very Hard to remember the password , n eventually u figure it out.
2. You make an attempt to hack into the system and rectify it.
Well the option one was completely unreliable , since i had no other choice i had to get to the option two as quickly as i can.
well there is a toolkit called as
well i am not going into the technical details of how it works , but all i did is to download the image file (in my laptop ) and burned that image into the disk.
Well since it was a bootable disk , all i had to do was boot the cd while computer was loading .
the kit will take some time to load u gotto be patient .
u will get a prompt all u will have to write is "winpass" (ofcourse without quotes)
t will show up all the windows installations
press enter
now it will show up all the account properties and all .
well you dont need to bother about it
finally u will get this prompt of
enter the new password
"y" to confirm
ok password changed
to change other users password
winpass -u "username"
now type reboot and restart your computer(without your cd).
well its very hard to believe at the first place that , with these few steps u could actually change the windows password.
well the password was changed and i got all the kudos i deserved....... heheheheh
well as usual i was there to save the day.....
