WindowsXP completely cracked

Saturday, February 16 2002 by Asmo

It was just a matter of waiting, but also M$'s latest flagship, WindowsXP is cracked now. And not just once, but twice.

The first crack is a installer from the "Sad Team". After rebooting into save mode and executing the patch, you will have a "full registered version".

The second crack is even better. A keygenerator which will take a night on a Athlon 1400 to generate a key. Apparently they did a very well job, since it seems you can even use the generated key to activate WindowsXP with M$ (imagine buying it legally and that someone else generated your key with the keygen...).

Another Undernet server lost

Wednesday, February 13 2002 by Asmo

The reason for the delink of NewYork* is that it has been down 4 weeks, and nebrix fail to answer the admins emails or phonecalls. Sad to see another server go. NewYork* didn't delink because of DoS, and thats is kinda new. I personally think that Too many hotdogs were consumed the last two months.

mIRC 6.0 Out..

Tuesday, February 5 2002 by Asmo

yup, it's so true, mIRC 6.0 has been released.
This version of course comes with the long expected Multi server
a total of 189 Additions, Fixes, see the list here.

One of the fixes is a major security issue that was found in mIRC recently. A buffer overflow in mIRC can allow others execute arbitrary code on the victim's computer. This exploit is found in mIRC 5.9, 5.91 and all other old versions tested. The patch that the Peace and Protection script recently released was to fix this problem. It is highly advised you upgrade to mIRC 6.0 as soon as possible.

Kiddies DoS irc-server off undernet

Sunday, February 3 2002 by Asmo

Undernet's largest server, paris.fr.eu.undernet.org, with an average userbase of around 12000 clients, has officially been delinked by it's administration, because of the heavy DoS attacks on it. The DoS attacks originated from only several so called "Kiddies", who don't like IRC, but still get on it. The router of paris.* had such a high load, because of all the DoS attacks, even the customers were starting to get concerned about it. For that reason, the administration decided to shut down the server.
