Online Banking and Credit Card Transactions : Hack And How to Prevent It 2007-08-27 14:55:00 It is not uncommon to perform banking and to purchase products online with your credit card. It is also a common thought that doing so is secure, as this is done via SSL. For the most part, this is true and the sessions are secure. Discover Card, for example, posts the following statement on their website: Figure 1 The problem is that it is not “virtually impossible” for someone else to see your data, such as login information or credit card numbers. It can actually be relatively easy, as you’ll see, if you as an end-user are not knowledgeable about how you can be exploited and know the signs that this is occurring. Figure 2 (Indicates a Secure SSL Session) Continuing with the scenario, what you didn’t realize is that a hacker has intercepted your Online Banking
login credentials and credit card information and can now log into your Online Banking Website or purchase items with your credit card. How is this possible, since SSL was used and is hard to break? The answe

These AdSense FAQ are all picked from the Program Policies, Terms and Conditions and FAQ itself and presented in a simplified manner. 1. Never click your own AdSense ads or get them clicked for whatever reason. You know this one very well. This is a surefire way to close you AdSense account.

Recover Corrupted Data From Hard-Disk 2007-10-02 12:49:00 Ever had a hard drive get all corrupted by money and power? Or just overuse… I found a good tutorial on how to recover your data from a corrupted hard drive, but it needed some tweaking so I moved some stuff around. This should be more efficient. First things first, you need a new hard drive. It can be external if you want. But you HAVE to be able to mount it as a directory in DSL (damn small linux) Now you need to borrow someone elses computer (cause yours is screwed right?). Download DSL (damn small linux) Just google “Damn Small Linux Download”, you’ll find it.Got it? Good, now boot it. after booting you will see the GUI of the DSL, run TERMINALand follow this command *Note: this command will make you a super user in DSL #sudo su *Note: this command will mount you HDD on DSL #mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hda1 *Note: this command will check if your data is still on the HDD #cd /mnt/hda1#ls -al Found any data? If not stop here and cry. If yes move on.Since you already have yo Read more:Corrupted

Enhance Your Pics 2007-09-30 16:45:00 Mobile Phones with camera are widely available, even inside the budget range of 5K, everyone uses it these days, however hardly any one enhances them. I am making this tutorial for everyone who wants to enhance their photos taken from mobile phone. 1) Make sure there is enough light in the area. Sometimes even if you are inside a room with tube light, the light is not enough for a Mobile Phone's camera, in that case, turn on night mode & reduce the white balance. 2) Don't move the cam while taking picture. When you click for a photo, you hear the sound now that is not the exact time when the pic is taken, it takes like half a second more for the real frame to capture. So click on the button, but do not move the cam or the subject, till you see the final pic on the screen. This is because the shutter speed in Camera phones is never as fast as dedicated digital cameras. They cannot be made that fast 3) Do not take full 2 MP or 3 MP pics, unless u have enough light.
