======================================================================= T h e C o d e T h i e f R e v i s i o n 3 . 0 D o c u m e n t a t i o n B y B r e w A s s o c i a t e s A N O F F I C I A L P H O R T U N E 5 0 0 P R O D U C T ---------- PROFESSIONAL, HIGH QUALITY SOFTWARE AT A PHREAKER'S PRICE: FREE ======================================================================= -> Introduction To Code Thief 3.0 <- Welcome to Code Thief 3.0! It has been over a year since the last 2.x version was released (which was 2.2), and revision 3.0 now provides a significant update to the program. If you are already familiar with Code Thief, you will be able to use the program right away, as all of the old features are there, as well as the familiar layout. What you will notice however is that things look more tighter and generally more professional. If something stumps you, it would be wise to read this revision 3.0 documentation, because some keyboard changes have taken place in the extender editor and modem configuration sections. New users should read the docs anyway, as with any new product. As an incentive to read the documentation, I have tried to lay out all of the 'little things' about the program and its behavior. This will help you understand more. Also notice that Code Thief does not make any direct screen writes. All screen access is done through the BIOS. Its fast enough as it is, and shouldn't a hacker be able to run in the BACKGROUND so you can do something else? As I am writing this documentation I am in DesqView, with Code Thief 3.0 running concurrently in another window. -> From The Author <- A LOT of work has gone into the Code Thief project, especially revision 2.x/3.x of the program. If you support the program then be sure to leave a message to me, Brew Associates, about it with any questions or comments you might have. -> An Official Phortune 500 Product <- My thanks to the Phortune 500 Board of Directors, and the Phortune 500 membership. The Phortune 500 Board of Directors as of now consists of: Brew Associates (author of Code Thief), Renegade Chemist, Aahz, Quinton J. Miranda, The Spiker, Striker, Red Knight, Lord Lawless. -> Starting The Program <- To start the program normally, enter THIEF from DOS. You can also enter THIEF xx:xx from DOS (substitute a valid time for xx:xx) and Code Thief will automatically hack the flagged multiple extenders with multiple targets until the time specified, then drop back out to DOS. This is great for a BBS's batch file. For instance, you can have your BBS invoke a batch file at a certain time. This batch file could say something like THIEF 5:30. This will invoke multiple target/multiple extender hacking until 5:30 am. Note that all times are in 24 hour mode. Also, if no multiple targets are found the defaults are automatically used. This modification is on the request of an Opus BBS sysop. Hope it comes in handy. IF THE PROGRAM IS STARTED NORMALLY When you first start the program you will see the main option menu. At this and any menu you can use the up and down arrow keys to move the highlight over an option and press RETURN or the SPACEBAR to finally choose the option. I will try to move you through the running of the program to get it working on your machine so it is suggested that you print this documentation out and work the actual program as you read it. -> Setting Your Modem Paramaters <- The first thing you will probably want to do is set your modem paramaters. Use the up and down arrow keys to move the highlight over option "H" on the main option menu then hit CR or RETURN, or just hit "H" then CR or RETURN. You will be greeted with three more options. First choose "Modem Specifics". This is where you can set the paramaters for your particular modem. If a default doesn't match your configuration then use the up and down arrow keys to move the highlight over the option then hit RETURN or SPACE. The highlight will disappear and you can make an entry. If it is a number or some other field, enter the new value to use. If it is some kind of a toggle, use your left and right arrow keys until what you want comes into view. Press RETURN when you are satisfied with your choice. MODEM SPECIFICS COM Port - This can be eighter COM1: COM2:, COM3: Or COM4:. Use the left and right arrow keys to select Port 1, Port 2, Port 3, Port 4. Then hit RETURN. Baud Rate - Enter the baud rate to open the modem at whenever hacking or scanning is performed. Your choices are 300 Baud, 1200 Baud, and 2400 Baud. The left and right arrow keys move you through the choices. Hit RETURN when you are satisfied. PBX Mode - Choices are Yes and No. The left and right arrow keys moves you through the choices and RETURN selects. If you are in a building with a PBX then you have to enter Yes for this option. PBX Digit - This is the PBX digit. When you are in a building with a PBX installed a certain digit has to be dialed to receive an outside line. If PBX mode is No, then N/A will appear for Not Applicable. Trying to change this with PBX mode to No will cause it to beep at you. PBX Delay - This is the number of seconds after entering the PBX digit to wait for the outside line. N/A if PBX Mode is No. Hangup Mode - You can select DTR or Escape Code here. Use the left and right arrow keys and ENTER as before. Entering DTR means that DTR will be forced false to cause the modem to hang-up. If your modem DIP switches are not set properly DTR will not work. Then you should choose Escape Code so that the modem hangs up using the escape sequence. Whenever the modem connects to a remote computer the program will now hang up by sending "+++" to the modem until it responds, then sending "ATH0". It's tested and works great for me. It should for you also. Speaker On - Choose Yes to keep the speaker on during hacking and scanning or No to keep it off. Dial Tone Wait - This is the number of seconds the modem is to wait after picking up the line until starting to dial. It does this through the Hayes (and compatibles) command registers. Carrier Detect - This is the number of 1/10 seconds that a carrier must be present for the modem to detect it as valid. This defeats some LD service's fake-carrier routines that send a fake carrier for a short period of time. Remember that REAL carriers are sent for a longer period of time than fake carriers. Experiment with this one. Dialing Speed - This is the speed of the touchtone dialer. This is in 1/100 of a second. This number can range from 50-255 (at least with the modem I use). User String - If there is something entered here then it is sent out to the modem. If you have an advanced modem, then set it to "ATX6" to enable your extended result codes for such things as VOICE, etc. You can over-ride the "Speaker On" setting by making this "ATM1". That would be stupid, but it's just an example. MODEM RESULT CODES In this section you enter the result codes that your modem uses when in non-verbose mode. Note that the defaults should suffice. If you have a strange modem configuration you can change these. Numbers aren't the only thing allowed here, you can enter symbols like ";" or ":", or etc. Someone had a strange "Hayes Compatible" modem and wanted this capability. I aim to please. -> Edit Extender Configurations <- The next thing you will want to do is create configurations for the different extenders you wish to hack. Choose "Edit Extender Configurations" after you exit back to the main options menu. If no EXTENDER.DAT file exists, one will be created for you with a dummy initial record (you will want to change this of course, 1-800-000-0000 is not a valid extender). If you haven't screwed anything up, you should now see the first record of the sample EXTENDER.DAT I included in the Code Thief archive file. These are just some 800 extenders to get you started. Note that you might want to change some delays, etc, to work for you. As they are now they work for ME. Your case might be different. Experiment. Hitting [A] will ADD AN EXTENDER to the file. Hitting [E] will EDIT the current extender (there's that highlight again!). Hitting [D] will prompt you to confirm the DELETE of the extender record. Hitting [Q] will quit the extender editor. To understand all of the fields for the individual extender, let's go through the process of ADDING an extender. You will notice that Code Thief is an extremely complex code hacker. But also note that there is so much flexibility that you will be able to hack just about anything that is out there, no matter what kind of format it is. ADD AN EXTENDER When you choose to ADD an extender you will be given the opportunity to enter the complete configuration for the extender. The first thing is the telephone number of the extender. After that is a short note used to identify the extender. Note that throughout the program in various sections extenders are refered to by this short note, so make sure it is something you can easily recall. You can make it the number of the extender if you wish. Anything goes here, but the program will beep at you if you try to leave it blank. Next is the length of the codes. For METRO it is 6, MCI calling cards it is 14, etc. No code lengths of 0 are allowed (it will beep). Next is the code template. This idea is borrowed from Fuckin' Hacker from 2af because I think it is a very powerfull feature. If this is used it completely over-rides the code length, hacking mode, starting code, and sequential increment in your configuration. Anyway, here you are to construct a "template" for your codes. For instance, entering "444XXX" will make every code 6 digits and starting in 444. Entering "0X1X2X" will make set the first, third, and fifth numbers in every code to 0,1, and 2 respectively and the second, fourth, and sixth number in each code will be totally random. Commas are also allowed in the code template and will cause the modem to pause for 2 seconds. For instance, XXXX,9 will cause a random 4 number code to be sent, a pause for 2 seconds, then a 9 will be sent. This is good for hacking PBX's that require a code be sent then need a number for an outside line. Leave the code template blank if you don't wish to use it. Next you will enter the code delay. This is the number of seconds to delay before sending the code. Then you will enter the target delay. This is the number of seconds to wait until entering the target number. Notice that also in the config is an option to put the code first or not. If the code is sent first then the Code Delay should be the number of seconds to wait after dialing the extender until the code is sent after the extender answers and provides a dial tone. If the code is not sent first then the target number will be sent first. The target delay should be the number of seconds to wait after dialing the extender until the target is sent at the extender's dialtone. Then the code delay is the number of seconds to wait until sending the code AFTER the target number is sent. The timeout is next. This is the number of seconds to wait for your TARGET number to answer. If it doesn't answer within this time the code is considered invalid. Basically, the target delay tells the modem how long to wait. When the modem times out it tells Code Thief, and Code Thief moves on. Now enter a default Target number. This is a number that always answers with a modem (is never busy). Telenet is perfect for this (so enter your local Telenet number). Note that Code Thief can also use random multiple targets - this is covered in the MULTIPLE TARGET CONVERSION UTILITIES that has been included as a Code Thief companion program in your Code Thief ARChive. Read CONVERT.DOC for information about targets and multiple targets at that. Next is the hacking mode. Use your left and right arrow keys to move through the selections and hit RETURN when you are satisfied. You can have Random codes, Sequential codes, or Both - sequential codes with a random increment. If you choose Sequential or Both you are now prompted for the starting code, otherwise this value is set to N/A. Next you enter the sequential increment only if Sequential hacking is chosen. If sequential hacking is chosen then this is the number to increment each code by. If Both is chosen, then this number is random in the range of 1-100 when hacking. If Both or Random hacking is your chosen method then the Sequential Increment is N/A. Note that the sequential increment is an integer, therefore any value from 1 to 32767 is valid. If "Sequential" hacking or "Both" hacking is chosen and the increment ever exceeds the code length, only the length of the code up to the code length will be used. For example, with a code length of 4 and an starting code of 9999, if an increment of 1 is made your next code will be 1000. Now you will be prompted as to if the code should be entered first. Use the left and right arrow keys to select Yes or No. If you choose Yes, then the code will be sent first. Choose No and the target will be sent first. Next is the target prefix digit. This is a number to add to the beginning of the target number. For example, for the MCI calling card service you enter the target first and prefix it with a "0". ITT requires that the target be sent first and be prefixed by a "1". Other services require that the CODE is sent first and the target has NO prefix. Next is the multiple extender flag. If Yes then the extender will be flagged immediately as one to be used when Multiple Extender hacking is chosen. If you choose No, then this extender will be put on reserve. More on this comes later. Next is multiple port mode. Say the extender number is 950-1000 and the extender has multiple port hunt groups from 950-1000 to 950-2000. Choosing Yes to multiple port mode will prompt you for the ending hunt number (in my example it's 2000). Now Code Thief will randomly pick 950-1000 to 950-2000 whenever it dials the extender. Ending Hunt numbers MUST be four digits long (that should be self-explanatory). Note that if your extender is 1-800-555-0000 and your Ending Hunt Number is 0099 Code Thief won't screw up by dialing 1-800-555-99 or whatever number is chosen. It will properly dial 1-800-555-0099 (or 1- 800-555-0050 or 1-800-555-0026, etc, etc, etc). Next you will enter the filename to place valid codes in. Valid codes are logged with the time and date for convienence. All valid code files end with the ".COD" extention. When finished entering all extender information it is saved to the EXTENDER.DAT file. OTHER EXTENDER EDITOR COMMANDS To navigate through the configurations use the LEFT and RIGHT arrow keys. To flag an extender for deletion enter "D". You will be prompted to enter "Y" if you are sure or "N" if you are not. Once an extender has been flagged for deletion it will be skipped over when you use the left and right arrow keys. Hit "Q" to quit this section. When you hit "Q" all extenders flagged for deletion are physically deleted. Another nice feature in this section is the ability to edit extenders. Hit "E" to choose edit. The highlight will appear. You can use the left, right, up, and down arrow keys to navigate the hightlight over the option you wish to change. Then hit RETURN or SPACE to enter a new value. When finished entering a new value (either by the keyboard or left and right arrow keys) hit RETURN and the highlight will re-appear so that you may move it over new things to edit. When finished editing hit "Q" when the highlight is present. Note that everything in the configuration is described in the previous paragraph. To choose a particular extender by record number, just enter the number. You can't see extenders flagged for deletion (it will not go to them). One more thing on deletion extender configurations. If in the course of using this section you delete ALL of your extender configurations, the program will not have any configurations left to go to and it will automatically quit this section deleting the entire EXTENDER.DAT file. When choosing this section again, a new EXTENDER.DAT with a dummy record will be created. -> Edit The Multiple Target File <- Navigate back to the main menu. Choose "Edit The Multiple Target File". You will then be shown the current multiple target file. Now you can either hit "1" to add to it, "2" to delete entries from it or "3" to quit. Everything here is self-explanatory. A multiple target file is provided with the program. It is kept in ASCII file format for easy editing with your word processor, if you wish. Use the MULTIPLE TARGET CONVERSION UTILITIES in your Code Thief ARChive to get quick and painless updates of your multiple target MTARG.DAT file off Telenet at regular intervals. Code Thief is a complete professional system that will solve all your hacking needs. -> Flag Extenders For Hacking Mode <- Exit to the main menu and choose "Flag Extenders For Hacking Mode". This is the option to choose to change the flags on extenders. If it is flagged then it will be one of the extenders used when multiple extender hacking is chosen. The extenders will be shown, eight to a page. A "+" in front of the extender means it will be included when multiple extender hacking is chosen, otherwise it will not. This option is included because some people don't want to hack all of the extenders they have configurations for. Editing an extender and changing the multiple extender flag does the same thing, but this is easier. If there are more than eight extenders then they will take up more than one page. You can flip through the pages by choosing "Jump To Next Page" and "Jump To Previous Page". Hitting RETURN or SPACE when the highlight is over an extener toggles the flag. -> Use The Exchange Scanner <- Navigate back to the main menu and choose "Use The Exchange Scanner". You will be prompted with the exchange to hack, the starting number in the exchange, then the ending number. If the ending number is not larger than the starting number it will not be accepted. This is a full screen exchange scanner ala the movie WarGames (the movie sucked by the way) and it will show each of the numbers dialed. Numbers where computers are detected are shown BLINKING. If the modem does not detect a dial tone when trying to dial (receives the no dial tone result code) it retrys the line. After 5 retries it exits the exchange scanner. If the modem sends a BUSY result code that is logged to the CARRIERS.TXT disk file along with numbers that produced a CONNECT result code of any baud. It will specifically log it as a BUSY number or a number that the modem CONNECTed to. You can then consult the log and dial these numbers back manually if you wish to ensure that the numbers listed as busy aren't important. There is a delay of two seconds from the time that the next number is printed to the screen until the modem actually picks up the line to dial. This is no problem and is done to ensure the reset of the hardware. When the screen fills up, Code Thief goes back to the beginning. -> View/Delete Code Files <- When you choose this option from the main option menu the disk will be searched for files with a .COD extention. If there are any they will be displayed. If there are no files with a .COD extention that will be displayed also. You have the option of viewing one of these files or deleting one. If you view one it will be one screen at a time so nothing scrolls past you. Note that the time and date the code was found is logged for your convienence. -> View/Delete Carrier File <- This option is also on the main option menu. All carriers found when using the exchange scanner are logged to a file called CARRIERS.TXT, as well as BUSY numbers if the modem sends a BUSY result code. When viewing the file it will be showed one screen at a time so nothing scrolls past you. You can also delete the file. Note that the time and date the number was found is logged for your convienence. -> Start Hacking <- After you choose this option you will be prompted as to weather you want to do Single Extender/Single Target Hacking, Single Extender/Multiple Target Hacking, Multiple Extender/Single Target Hacking, Or Multiple Extender/Multiple Target Hacking. If you choose multiple target hacking of any kind the targets will be read into memory before hacking begins to cut down greatly on disk access time. If single extender hacking is chosen you will be prompted for the extender to hack. Use the arrow keys to highlight the extender you want then press RETURN or SPACE. If there is more than one page of extenders then highlight "Jump To Previous Page" and "Jump To Next Page" to navigate around the list. WHEN HACKING BEGINS With version 2.x the hacker was greatly enhanced. You will be shown the complete statistics for every extender. Also shown is the number of codes found, the last code found as well as the number of codes found for that extender plus other statistics for the current hacking run for each extender. The number of extenders you can have at any time is limited only to disk space, of course. Multiple targets are limited to 500. This is, I think, more than enough. If you chose to quit hacking at any time, that time will be displayed on the screen as a reminder. Hit ESCape to quit hacking at any time. If you forgot to configure your modem and it is connected to COM2 (the default is COM1) then just hit ESCape to exit hacking and re-configure the modem. The program won't hang waiting for input and the ESCape quits at any time. You can also hit the SPACEBAR to skip to the next code. If you have a picky modem like mine, only use the ESCape key or the SPACEbar when the modem is not sending any DTMF to the line. POSIBILITIES DURING HACKING Many things can happen during hacking. For instance, if the modem connects the code and extender is logged to it's respective disk file. If the modem sends an ERROR result code the current attempt is retryed again. If NO DIAL TONE is detected by the modem the current attempt is retryed. If NO CARRIER or VOICE is detected by the modem the program moves on. The maximum number of retrys that can ever be done in a row is five. Oh, if the modem sends a RINGING result code that is also shown to the user while the modem waits to timeout or connect. Ringing does nothing but just display "Ringing...". If the modem receives a busy signal it goes on to another attempt. I origionally planned on making it retry the code but I remembered that some extenders send a re-order which is a fast busy signal that can be detected by the modem and send a BUSY result code. -> Closing Notes <- I hope you understood this new documentation. Im not really a good writer, so if you have any questions leave me a note on any board I happen to be on and I will try to answer it. I hope you like Code Thief and find it usefull as I put a LOT of hours and hard work into it until I was satisfied. If anything goes wrong with the program on your machine, or anything else in general then leave me a note. I will try to diagnose the problem and stamp it out. COMMUNICATIONS ADDRESSES AND INTERRUPTS Here are the communications address and interrupts that Code Thief uses to access the communications ports. COM1: and COM2: are correct for 100% of the applications. COM3: and COM4: as defined by the program will be correct 99% of the time. If you have a COM3: modem and Code Thief set at Port 3 doesn't work with it then change your modem to COM1: or COM2: if possible. If you really need YOUR communications addresses and interrupts for COM3: and COM4: leave me a note with the correct information on any board I am on and I will try to get you a new THIEF.COM. But note that the addresses and interrupts used for COM3: and COM4: are going to be correct more times than not. Address Interrupt Address Interrupt ------- --------- ------- --------- COM1: 3F8 IRQ4 COM3: 3E8 IRQ4 COM2: 2F8 IRQ3 COM4: 2E8 IRQ3 F i l e s S u p p l i e d W i t h C o d e T h i e f 3 . 0 Make sure that these are the files you received in your ARChive of Code Thief revision 3.0. If these are not the files then what you got is something that someone else re-ARChived and forgot to include something in. I ask that you only distribute the origional archive because people have confused themselves in the past.
