- Happy Valintines Day! This file is for all of you wanna-be cool system hackers
- and crackers but don't have the slightest idea what you're doing. Well here's
- your chance to be a real hacker. In addition to the axe method, I've included
- some secret WWIV commands that even Wayne Bell might not be aware of. Cactus?
-
- Tools You Need:
- --------------
- (1) Ladder
- (1) Ax (or hedge trimmers if you want to be creative)
- (1) Sysop you don't really like
-
- What To Do:
- ----------
- Log on to your hated WWIV board under a false alias and start chatting up the
- sysop. Be really nice to him and ask for your own sub and upload a lot of
- files and offer advice on ways to better his board and just be a really,
- really nice guy.
-
- After you gain his trust, find out through social engineering when him and
- all the other members of his family are going to be gone for an hour or so.
- Stake out across the street and wait for him to leave.
-
- Now, when they're all gone take your hacking equipment to his house. Use the
- ladder to climb up to his window and shatter it with your ax. (The window,
- not the ladder.) Climb into his room. If his room is in the basement, walk
- downstairs. Of course, you could have just broken into the basement window
- but that would have been too easy and only a true dedicated hacker would do
- it this way.
-
- Find his computer. If someone is logged on hit F10 to go into chat mode and
- type, "I'M SORRY BUT I'M GOING TO HAVE TO LOG YOU OFF SO I CAN HACK THIS
- BOARD." Log the loser, I mean user off and proceed to hack. Hold the ax high
- over your head and bring it down with as much force as possible on his
- computer to hack a big gash in the middle of it. Hack all of his WWIV backup
- disks, his monitor and his keyboard. Oh, and the modem. Hack everything that
- has to do with WWIV to bits.
-
- After you're all done hacking, you could format his C: drive although it's
- not really neccessary. Now you can brag to all your friends about what a cool
- hacker you are. Take your ax and go home. Call his board and see if it answers.
-
- Trouble Shooting:
- ----------------
- If his board does answer when you call it you've obviously done something
- seriously wrong here, possibly broken into the wrong house. Go back and finish
- the job, but be sure to check and make sure you have the correct address.
-
- Please contact me and let me know if this method of hacking works on other
- types of bbses other than WWIV or if you have any problems with this method.
- I've personally only attempted the "axe" method on WWIV and it's been
- successful every time but there's a rumor going around that perhaps this will
- also work on VBBS, Wildcat and Citadel software, but some modifications may
- have to be made.
-
- Secret WWIV Commands:
- --------------------
- We all know what an amazing programmer and hacker I am. While passing a rainy
- day last week I was looking through the WWIV program and source code and
- noticed a number of flaws and back doors throughout the program. Perhaps
- Wayne Bell is trying to pull a fast one just so he can get free access anywhere
- or destroy computers of sysops he doesn't like or something, I don't know, but
- there was definately some really odd stuff in there. Here's a breakdown of
- what I found. Keep in mind that I've called WWIV bbses around the country and
- all of these "secret" commands seem to work in most every version of WWIV.
-
- 1. From the main menu if you hit [CTRL] [R] [O] [Y] and stomp on the floor six
- times REAL HARD you'll get a DOS prompt. From there you can do anything you
- want to the victim's hard drive.
-
- 2. From the main menu type /OCEAN for a super-secret ansi music menu. This
- does a lot of really amazing things. This is for real.
-
- 3. WWIV has a built-in virus command that can be activated by any user, even
- with a SL of 10. From the main menu type "//I AM A TOTAL LOSER" with your left
- hand only. If you use your right hand in any way, the virus will backfire in
- a very bad way. Oh also, if your nose is pierced, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS. I won't
- get into why, though.
-
- The virus will turn the outside casing of the sysop's computer bright orange
- and will kill off any smaller life forms in his house, including dogs, cats,
- fish and all the house plants. It will also cause the sysop's front doorbell
- to malfunction for a few weeks and cause the top left drawer in the sysop's
- desk to stick alot.
-
- 4. While transferring any file, repeatedly hit [CTRL] & [C] until the transfer
- aborts. A split second before it aborts, though, type "booga booga" and flip
- the computer's power switch on and off quickly fifteen times. If you get a
- message saying something like, "System failure" don't worry. This is only a
- part of the back door. This trick allows you to read all the users' private
- mail.
