PHUN
with 
Netscape

by the Q

Okay, you're at school, nothing to do, you are bored shitless.  What should you do?  Have some fun of course!  What?  You don't know how?  Well, here's a few ways to have some fun with Netscape, the browser of Champions.

1. Ftp HD
2. Copy/Paste Password
3. Proxy Problems?

1. Ftp HD

Okay, you're on netscape and you've got some sort of Security Prog or some other crap like that.  What to do, oh, what to do.  Gee, I wish I had full access to the harddrive.  Follow these steps and you will.

1. Copy the name of the HD.
2. In the location bar, type the following:

file:///[name of HD]

 Now, if you have any spaces you must put "%20" in place of it.
    So if the HD was named "My Harddrive", that would yeild:

         file:///My%20Harddrive/
    Hit enter and you have an Ftp like environment and full access.
3. Have some fun!

2. Copy/Paste Password

For this little trick, you must be watching someone use the computer that knows nothing about computers or Macs for that matter.

At my school, whenever you open Netscape, it prompts you for a user name and password.  Well when the victim types it all in and before they hit enter, Say something like "Oh, hey, wanna see something cool?" and if they let you, highlite the password and hit COMMAND-C (Copy) and let them hit enter.  When nothing happens say "Oh, gee, i guess it doesn't work on this computer."  After they are done using it, go to that computer and hope to God they didn't copy anything.  If they didn't go to a word proccessor or note pad and paste it.  Whala! you have their password!

Also if they log into Hotmail or something like that, When they are finished using it you could say something like,"Hey I'll shut that down for you" If they let you, push the back button till you get to the Hotmail (or whatever) login screen.  If the password is still there, copy and paste.  This only works on some comps.  A lot of times the username will still be there and the passwd will have been erased.  

3. Proxy Problems?

Are proxys getting you down?  Hate Surfwatch and Netnanny?  Well beat those proxy blues by taking of the damn proxy.  95% of the things that are blocked from you are blocked by the proxy the prog uses.  Well follow the simple steps to a better life below.

Netscape 2.x - 3.x

1. Open the Options: Network Prefs.
2. Click on proxies tab.
3. Put it on manual and click view.  
4. In the http proxy put the name of the proxy and port you wish to use and tadah!
    You shouldn't have to worry about the ftp and gophers and all that         shit.

Netscape 4.x

1. Open Prefs.
2. Click on the arrow for the Advanced tab.
3. Click on Proxies.
4. Set it for manual and click view.
5. In the http proxy enter the proxy and port you are wishing to use. tadah!

Here is a list of proxies you can use for websurfing.  These proxys won't restrain you to any sites or block you from anything.  Have fun!
