Lock and Protect your Computer with a Secret Key

With so many cracking tools coming up to break windows password, its very difficult to protect your personal computer from unauthorized access. Even BIOS password is easy to crack. Nothing is secure and safe these days. Now no more worries, I just found a simple trick by which you can easily protect your windows from unwanted usage. This really cool and hidden feature of Windows lets you maintain your privacy of data on your computer even if you are not around. What it does is that it adds an extra secret key along with your windows password. So when your computer is started, it first asks for the secret key and then the windows password. Windows password can easily be hacked but you cannot get around this secret key which we will be going to store in a removable devices such as USB drive etc. Here goes the step-by-step procedure for achieving an extra level of protection. 1.) Open run dialog box. 2.) Type SYSKEY and click OK. 3.) Check the Encryption Enabled radio button. 4.) Click on Update.

5.) Under System Generated Password choose Store Startup Key on Floppy Disk. (Now many of you must be thinking that this tutorial is waste. Where in the hell should be get Floppy no? Dont worry; you dont require any Floppies for this. Just insert your USB device and change its Drive Letter to A:\. I am using my IPOD shuffle for this purpose. You can use your Pen Drive. Read further to learn how to change Drive Letters.) 6.) After you have inserted your USB device, right click My Computer -> Manage -> Storage -

> Disk Management. 7.) Now you will see all storage volumes there. Choose your USB volume, right click on it and select option Change Drive Letters and Paths Reduced: 92% of original size [ 551 x 421 ] - Click to view full image

8.) From the long list of available drive letters choose A:\. 9.) Now return back to SYSKEY, choose Startup Key on Floppy Disk and click OK.

The next time you start your computer, youll have to insert this USB device when asked and then only you can login to your account. You can also see a registry file named StartKey stored in your USB device.

Rar password Copy/ Past

Hello everyone, lately i have seen many people complaining that the .Rar passwords doen't work, with this i mean even sometime people replies that TGF passwords dosen't work witch are my uploads, i was worrying and downloaded them myself to see if it's true, but nah they always works for me. Thats why i decided to make a little tutorail on how to copy past the passwords for the .Rar files. There is a lot of passwodes types that includes different letters and symbols like $ and so on... don't worry they may work. - Copy the password and past it in your browser URL bar, lets say you downloaded a file and the passwords is mentioned as 'TheGreatForum.net' when you copy it - and past in into your Browser URL bar it will most of time look like this:

What it realy means is:

^^ The red rectangles are spaces, witch means when you copied the password, you have also copied two spaces before the password ( TheGreatForum.net ) and after the password. Earse the spaces, showen above in red rectangles - and it should look like this:

^^ Now you can see the spaces are removed.

^^ Now selech the password and past it into the WinRar/ WinZip or what ever tool you use to extract the .Rar files with, and it should work 100%.

Note to the uploaders that use to password protect the files, mention the exact password as you have typed lets say you have typed 'thegreatforum.net' don't include your password as 'TheGreatForum.net' in your post. If the password still didn't work use this methode: http://www.thegreatforum.net/index.php?showtopic=225 Have a fun TL

How to Create aXXo Quality DVD Rips

Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 331 ] - Click to view full image

DVD movies are the best way to pass time while you are at home and have nothing else to do. There are times though when the DVD you rented at the local DVD store has to be returned within 24 hours and you want to watch the movie again and again. In such situations ripping the DVD's is the best way to go. If you have been a P2P torrents user for any length of time, I'm sure you've heard of aXXo. A lot of people are in love with him and his releases on the internet (including me as well). The quality of his rips are always spot on, and many people have asked me to how he creates such wonderful rips at 700mb which is insanely small. Sometime in the past aXXo had stopped releasing new movies, and many users were angry. Well you can't blame him, because he had his own reasons. The purpose of this Hack Attack though is to reduce your dependency on guys like aXXo. Its as simple as going to a DVD rental store or site, getting the DVD and creating a perfect 700mb DVD rip for the rest of us to enjoy. You don't need to depend on guys like aXXo anymore. Without further delay, lets get started with the process, of creating your super small high quality DVD Rip. Here are the tools you will require to get started

DVD Decrypter mrbass.org/dvdrip/ Auto GK autogk.me.uk

K-lite Codec Pack free-codecs.com/download/K_Lite_Codec_Pack.htm (if you already have a codec pack installed you can leave this one out)

Install the above softwares, just like you would install any other software, and then grab yourself a cup of caffeine before you proceed. I am going to split this guide into two parts. Lets get started with the first part.

PART 1 : Ripping the DVD to your Hard Disk

Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 362 ] - Click to view full image

Step 1 Fire up DVD Decrypter. It should like the screenshot above. Insert your DVD in your DVD drive and select the appropriate drive as Source, and a folder on your hard disk as the destination with atleast 3-4GB of free space. Step 2 As you can see in my screenshot, my DVD doesn't have any region protection, copy protection and RCE protection. It might not be the same with your DVD, and you need to get rid of the protection schemes. To get rid of the protection schemes, click tools from the menu bar and select settings. The settings dialog should now appear. Now tick the Remove Macrovision Protection check box, this will remove the Macrovision flag of the VOB files on the disc. RCE Protection Region should be set to the region your drive (or standalone DVD player) has.

You can find the regions below : Region 1 - 1: U.S., Canada, U.S. Territories

Region 2 - Japan, Europe, South Africa, and Middle East (including Egypt) Region 3 - Southeast Asia and East Asia (including Hong Kong) Region 4 - Australia, New Zealand, Pacific Islands, Central America, Mexico, South America, and the Caribbean Region 5 - Eastern Europe (Former Soviet Union), Indian subcontinent, Africa, North Korea, and Mongolia Region 6 - Peoples Republic of China Region 7 Reserved Region 8 - Special international venues (airplanes, cruise ships, etc.)

Step 3 Now that you are done with everything, you are ready to rip the DVD to your disk. Make sure the drive containing your destination folder has enough free space on it. Select all the files on the right column if they aren't already selected and hit the Start button as highlighted in the screenshot below.

It should complete ripping after a while and you should see something like this Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 362 ] - Click to view full image

Yup that is it, you are done with the first part. Now that you have the ripped files on your disk, you can test them on your media player and when you are satisfied you can eject the DVD. Now lets proceed with part 2 of this guide

Part 2 : Compressing the DVD to AVI format

Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 432 ] - Click to view full image

Open up Auto GK. It should like the one shown above. Basically this is where all the action happens. I'll guide you through the process of choosing the best settings through to the last step where you can watch your 700MB rip. Lets continue then Step 4

Locate the input file from the folder you used to store the rips in DVD Decrypter Here's how you select the file. In the Open dialog box, select the details view. The input file that we are going to select is an *.IFO file.

As you can see from my screenshot VTS_00_0.IFO has three .VOB files under it with the maximum size, which means this is the movie we're looking for. Select the IFO to proceed. Now give the output file, whatever name you need to give by clicking the Output file field. Step 5 Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 432 ] - Click to view full image

As you can see from the screenshot above, the program lists the available subtitles and Audio tracks. On my DVD there are no subtitles, and there is only one Audio track, so I will select that. On most DVD's you have 2 Channel Sound (2ch), Surround Sound (6ch). I'd prefer Surround sound over normal 2 channel if available simply because they sound much better. Now select the Target (Output) Size. I have selected 700MB here. Generally speaking, higher the size you select, the more clearer the picture is on the DVD will be. Now click Advanced Settings button to show the Advanced Options window as shown.

Configure the settings as shown in the Screenshot. Choose XviD over DivX because it gives you higher compression for same quality compared to DivX. Step 6 Reduced: 91% of original size [ 560 x 432 ] - Click to view full image

Now that you have finished configuring everything, just click the Add Job button and the Start button to start the conversion/compression process.

Just grab yourself some coffee, if you have finished the one you took before getting started. The compression process will take quite a while, so you could even have a nice nap meanwhile. Note : You won't much activity in Auto GK itself. A lot of programs will load including a couple of command prompt windows, do their jobs and exit. This is completely normal so don't bother messing around with anything. That's it guys! You have made your first aXXo like DVD Rip!

Speeding Up Your Hard Drive!

To speed up your hard disk speed we need to configure a special buffer in the computer's memory in order to enable it to better deal with interrupts made from the disk. This tip is only recommended if you have 256MB RAM or higher. Follow these steps: Run SYSEDIT.EXE from the Run command. Expand the system.ini file window. Scroll down almost to the end of the file till you find a line called [386enh]. Press Enter to make one blank line, and in that line type Irq14=4096 Note: This line IS CASE SENSITIVE!!! Click on the File menu, then choose Save. Close SYSEDIT and reboot your computer. Done. Speed improvement will be noticed after the computer reboots. Update: The most speed improvement is visible with IDE drives, however there are reports that this tweak also does good for SCSI disks. In any case, it won't harm your system, so why not try it yourself and let me know what you find.

Should look like so when your done:

How to tell if you need more RAM...

Here's how: Press the Ctrl? + Alt + Delete key. Now click on Task Manager and select the Performance tab. Look just under midway down on the right and you will see a box labeled ?Physical Memory (K). Read the Total right under that. That is your installed memory (in kilobytes). If you want to convert it to MB, divide it by 1024. Now look at the box to it;s left that says Commit Charge (K). The total there will be how much memory is being used. You will also see a Peak under that total which tells the highest amount of memory used since the last reboot. If the Peak is lower than the Physical Memory total, then you don?t need additional memory. If the total Commit Charge is higher than the Physical Memory Total, then additional memory would give you a significant performance boost because of how much of the memory your system is using with the Operating System and applications.

Have Fun with the Command Prompt.

Here's a cheap trick to amuse yourself when you get bored. Open a command prompt (Start -> Run then type cmd, OK) and enter the following command: title "put what ever you want here" exclude the quotes then check out the title bar of the command window.
