Hey,

the apple special event was a real let down, no new ipod, no iphone and no video streaming box.

What actually was announced:

rev on ipod nano

the went back the to the ipod-mini style case( the way i like it), bumped the storage, dropped the price, made it smaller and put in some better batteries. the black one looks sweet.

rev on ipod 5gen

Not the video ipod we all wanted,
comes with longer battery, more hard disk space some new software. nothing earth shattering.
they have also dropped the price a little bit.

rev on ipod shuffle

the new shuffle is really cool looking and smaaaaallllllllll!!!!!!!!!!!, love it!!
kind of reminds me of the Saturday night live video with steve jobs.

new version of iTunes and iTms

New itunes with improved iTms. Much needed hi-res content and movies.

thats about

me still sad even thought some good product upgrades announced.

Yes, there has had been speculation that apple would launch a new 23″ iMac on 12th September, when it will hold a special event. But whoa! They are already here …. Meet the iMac family , and it goes al the way up to 24″, Not to mention it has Core 2 duo on the inside now.

Now these new Mac are nice, screaming fast and beautiful but is there some underlying strategy, an ulterior motive ?

It just seems to me that apple is now going full steam at the media centre market. If you can buy a 24″ computer that works out of the box and then just plonk it in your dorm room, instant computer/TV/media centre.

Now, for the more speculative part. If apple has a special event coming up just next week, then why coudnt this announcement wait. Does it mean that the new announcements are going to be so big that Mr. Jobs feels the new iMac, a 24″ one at that, is less important. Apple has even upgraded all its mac mini’s without a word.

A a good friend, I’ll leave you drooling over what’s next: here’s the invitation card sent to the media, for the special event on September 12th.

First of all “thank u!!” for the wonderful feedback which I have received for my first post. But I’m sorry for being so technical in my first post and also for not introducing myself. I am ankit srivastava an ethical hacker (a person who works towards increasing security) who has just joined exun. My posts on lnexun do not aim towards making you feel more insecure but aim to instill in your mind that no software can provide you complete security. It’s the knowledge of these existing loopholes which can help you to secure your p.c.

In this post I would like to talk to you about something which almost all of us use everyday for searching “google”. Well there exists a term known as google hacking. It’s not connected to getting into the google server but using google to execute malicious codes which give hackers or crackers important information is known as google hacking. A person known as jonny(http://johnny.ihackstuff.com) has written a whole book on it.
I would just like to show that how easy it is to use google to get into security cameras around the globe.
Well all u got to do is google this
1)“view/view.shtml”
2)“MOBOTIX M1” (the good results for this research would start from 9th or 10th page)
3)“MOBOTIX M10”
by doing so u would see all open security cameras on the internet and u can access them without even using a password. Well if u browse through all the searches then u would not only be able get into casinos of las vegas but also into marine school of united states, some other universities and not to forget kennedy airport. So now can u see how easy it is to break some security barriers. For a complete list of open security cameras arranged according to the country they belong to go to http://www.griffid.com/?page=livecams.To know more google hacks go to jonny’s page http://johnny.ihackstuff.com/ or buy his book “google hacking”.

EXUN LIFTS OVERALL ROLLING TROPHY!!

Exun has,for the first time,won MINET,the annual computer symposium at The Mothers International Scool,New Delhi , which was held on 1st and 2nd September’06.
The individual results of the events are as follows:-

Eric Schmidt, CEO of Google, has joined Apple’s Board of Directors. Is a Google+Apple partnership likely? Microsoft should be scared, very scared.

This article and the tricks given in it are only possible on sify broadband. I have not tried it on a system with airtel broadband but I hope it does work on it too. People using airtel broadband plz leave u’r observations in the comments.

The trick which i am about to tell u will allow u too see the address of the site which your neighbour is viewing at that moment, also the user i.d. and computer name or the service being used by him, but it works only in a range of 1.5-2 k.m. ie.all your neighbour’s within a radius of 1.5-2k.m. will be a victim to this. It will only work if your neighbour and u have a sify broadband connection. Please do not hesitate to use this trick as sify already knows about this trick but they do not wish to correct it.

1) Download any packet analyzer from the internet. As u all know that when you connect to the internet, information is transferred in the form of data packets. Therefore this packet analyzer will capture useful packets and display it to you.
I recommend that u download ethereal from the following link:
http://www.ethereal.com/download.html

2) Now the basic principle on which sify broadband works is that a local server and a router are installed after every 2 k.m. these routers distribute the connection to at least 20 users of the same neighbourhood and all these routers are together connected to the local server.
So, now the basic problem in such a network is that data being exchanged can be captured by any p.c. in the network.

3) So now, just connect to internet using sify and open the packet analyzer (I am going to be using ethereal over here), click on the button on the left side which says capture data packets. Select u’r network and say capture.

4) Now just leave it on for a few minutes and then click stop.I will like to show you the output which I had got

5) I would like to tell u that my sify i.p. was 10.19.48.46. Now if u look closely at the output I have got, u will notice that it has captured all data packets which are being sent to the local server. To get the data which is in the data packet just click on it and look into the white space in the bottom.
In order to give u a clear picture I will just discuss the data packets which I have captured:-
1) HOST ANNOUCEMENT PRASANJI -016573
This tells u that the user with the user i.d.-prasanji has just logged into the network. The data of this packet is something which I will discuss in the next post.
2) STANDARD QUERY PTR-BITTORRENT
if u see the contents of the data packet then u will see that the user-shrisai with an i.p.-10.19.48.102 is using bittorrent to download something.
3) ALL THOSE DATA PACKETS WITH A PROTOCOL( it’s a column in the arrangement ) AS DNS

The simple analysis of these data packets will tell u the site which the other user is viewing. For eg. On clicking a data packet and then looking in the white column gives me the following output

000 00 c0 69 0c 23 84 00 05 6b 00 0e a9 08 00 45 00 ..i.#… k…..E.
0010 00 3e 01 f5 00 00 80 11 26 b7 0a 13 30 2e ca 90 .>…… &…0…
0020 0d 32 04 14 00 35 00 2a 0d e0 49 43 01 00 00 01 .2…5.* ..IC….
0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 03 77 77 77 06 67 6f 6f 67 6c …….w ww.googl
0040 65 02 63 6f 02 69 6e 00 00 1c 00 01 e.co.in. ….

this simply tells me that the user has opened google.co.in. The userid of this peson would be visible in the info column.

If any one of u have any doubts about this post then please send me a mail at cool_ank3@yahoo.com..

My next post would be about using free sify broadband but would only be posted on next wednesday,by the way this just tells us how weak sify is in the matters of security. So If any one of u are using sify broadband then please throw it away.
