If u are viewing the text guide u can use the text seach box to search for an word or u can use the coded search box on the html version.

I wasn't sure whether to include normal computer words so i made the dictionary of words which are relevent to hackers!,but as the text gets larger i will inlude more hacking words.

NOTE FOR HACKERS:this is an newbie version of the dictioanry with all the common hacker words,for a 5MB dictioanry with harder words which are harder to understand goto

This is a dictioanry on hacking words so if u read a hacking tutorial and dont understand anything u will find the answer here,also i didnt include words such as fdisk,486,intel,THIS IS NOT A COMPUTER DICTIONARY BUT A HACKING DICTIONARY so if your using it to looking for a graphics word !it wont be there.

Tip:for more adation words related to programming and networks try www.whatis.com

Hacker terms info:over the internet there thousands of hacking tutorials freely avalible,usally such texts have words in hacker slang which newbies fail to understand.This dictioanry is trying to change that although i must admit as being the main author i have a pretty big task a head of me to make it the BEST and not nessisary the biggest hacking dictioanry ever!,i have came accross lots of hacking dictioanrys but the biggest i saw was 5 Mb so over the next 3 months i am trying to make this dictioanry better than that one so with your help email me and inlude your contributing.My aim is to inlude all programming,networking,hacker slang and underground words.the biggest one i saw was made by hundreads of ppl and useneters so if u want a challenge get wriitng!>>>>

to make it better i have included irc slang,hacking guides,port numbers e.t.c,also i promise u that this text is the best understandle hacker dictioanry on the web so if u dont understand anything email me.

note:when i say the best dictioanry it doesnt have to be the most advanced but the most easy to understand.Hackers will note this guide is more than a dictioanry it has port numbers and all sorts of usefull info,also the guide is split into different section,e.g dictionary section,irc section and www section.

HACKER DICTIONARY beta vesrion 1.1

>.ACCESS:the ability to get into something or locate something on a network or local machine.

>.ACCESS CODE:also known as login name or user id and password on a network which reguires u to login.

>ACCESS PERMISIONS:this allows u to execute,read or change a file depending on the permsion

>.ACCOUNT:your presence id on a computer system which allows u to login.

>.ADAPTER:another name for an expansion card,usally most of them plug into your expansion slots on your pc.

>ACTIVE X:a set of interacitve techonloiges devloped by microsoft,activex isnt a programming language but it can be dangerous for website viruses.

>ACTIVE OPEN:a state in which TCP is attempting to initiate a connection.

>ADDRESS:a memory location.The value is often displayed as hexadecimal,mostly to keep anyone but official pc postal employes from finding things on your computer>every thing on your hard drive has a memory location.

>ADDRESS CLASS:a basic network of various sises.the network class can be determend from the first octet of its ip address

>ADDRESS RESOULUTION PROTOCOL:the process of determining a MAC address, given a more abstract LAN or WAN address. Any protocol used to obtain a mapping from a higher layer address to a lower layer address. Abbreviated ARP. The acronym ARP is most often used to refer to the Ethernet Address Resolution Protocol (below). The protocol used by an IP networking layer to map IP addresses to lower level hardware (i.e., MAC) addresses. There are four ARP messages for IP running over Ethernet: arp requests and replies and reverse arp request and replies. <ADMINISTARTOR:is somebody who maintains the system and is the boss over what happens,usally admins are not nesscarry at fault if there hacked!

>ADSL:adsl(asymetic digital subscriber line):is a connection to the net were users dont use dial up but have a connection 24/7 and usally have a static ip address.

>ADA: Pascal-descended language that was at one time made mandatory for Department of Defense software projects by the Pentagon. Hackers are nearly unanimous in observing that, technically, it is precisely what one might expect given that kind of endorsement by fiat; designed by committee, crockish, difficult to use, and overall a disastrous, multi-billion-dollar boondoggle (one common description wss "The PL/I of the 1980s"). Hackers find Ada's exception-handling and inter-process communication features particularly hilarious. Ada Lovelace (the daughter of Lord Byron who became the world's first programmer while cooperating with Charles Babbage on the design of his mechanical computing engines in the mid-1800s) would almost certainly blanch at the use to which her name has latterly been put; the kindest thing that has been said about it is that there is probably a good small language screaming to get out from inside its vast, elephantine bulk.

>AGENT:A program that performs one or more services (such as gathering information from the Internet), acting for or as a principal.

>ADVANCED PEER-TO-PEER NETWORKING(APPN):An IBM peer-to-peer networking architecture that uses interconnected Type 2.1 nodes. APPN supports dynamic routing,directory searches, and network management. >ADVANCED PROGRAM-TO-PROGRAM COMMUNICATIONS(APPC) SNA's standard program-to-program communications protocol. Sometimes the term APPC is used interchangeably with Logical Unit Type 6.2 (LU 6.2).

ALERT:A problem determination message sent to a network operator within IBM's network management system.

>ALOHA :A 4800bps Contention Based Radio Channel Transmission System Network used in the University of Hawaii (1968 - 1972) and designed by Morman Abramson to connect the university's mainfraim IBM 360 on the Island of Oahu and terminals plaaced throught different ships and nearby islands. Data coming from the mainfraim was sent to all other terminals while data from terminals was the Contention-Based part and would re-send data if no acknowledement data was received. VLAN : Virtual Local Area Network This is a network split into workgroups by routers and each assigned a server. As any message sent will have which workgroup it is aimed at, wokgroups not receiving messages can run faster as traffic is reduced. Standards --------- Ethernet : A Network standard that is a Contention-Based Network. Ethernet evolved from a radio channel transmission system called ALOHA.

>ALT:is commenly known as a computer control key but in internet terms alt is for connecting to newsgroups just like www is for connecting to the web.

>.ANTIVIRUS:a program which scans a users hard drive looking for known viruses,worms,trojans,and joke files.

>AMIGA:A series of personal computer models originally sold by Commodore, based on 680x0 processors, custom support chips and an operating system that combined some of the best features of Macintosh and Unix with compatibility with neither.

The Amiga was released just as the personal computing world standardized on IBM-PC clones. This prevented it from gaining serious market share, despite the fact that the first Amigas had a substantial technological lead on the IBM XTs of the time. Instead, it acquired a small but zealous population of enthusiastic hackers who dreamt of one day unseating the clones (see Amiga Persecution Complex). The traits of this culture are both spoofed and illuminated in The BLAZE Humor Viewer. The strength of the Amiga platform seeded a small industry of companies building software and hardware for the platform, especially in graphics and video applications (see video toaster).

Due to spectacular mismanagement, Commodore did hardly any R&D, allowing the competition to close Amiga's technological lead. After Commodore went bankrupt in 1994 the technology passed through several hands, none of whom did much with it. However, the Amiga is still being produced in Europe under license and has a substantial number of fans, which will probably extend the platform's life considerably. viruses,common virus scanners include norton and mcafee.

>AMP OFF:[Purdue] vt. To run in background. From the UNIX shell `&'

>ANSI; n. [techspeak] The American National Standards Institute. ANSI, along with the International Organization for Standards (ISO), standardized the C programming language (see K&R, Classic C), and promulgates many other important software standards. 2. n. [techspeak] A terminal may be said to be `ANSI' if it meets the ANSI X.364 standard for terminal control. Unfortunately, this standard was both over-complicated and too permissive. It has been retired and replaced by the ECMA-48 standard, which shares both flaws. 3. n. [BBS jargon] The set of screen-painting codes that most MS-DOS and Amiga computers accept. This comes from the ANSI.SYS device driver that must be loaded on an MS-DOS computer to view such codes. Unfortunately, neither DOS ANSI nor the BBS ANSIs derived from it exactly match the ANSI X.364 terminal standard. For example, the ESC-[1m code turns on the bold highlight on large machines, but in IBM PC/MS-DOS ANSI, it turns on `intense' (bright) colors. Also, in BBS-land, the term `ANSI' is often used to imply that a particular computer uses or can emulate the IBM high-half character set from MS-DOS. Particular use depends on context. Occasionally, the vanilla ASCII character set is used with the color codes, but on BBSs, ANSI and `IBM characters' tend to go together.

>ANGLE BRASKET: Either of the characters `<' (ASCII

>ANTIONLINE:is one of the many comprehensive securirty firms on the net which specialises in exploits,news,and hacker related things.www.antionline.com

>APACHE:is a webserver used by almost 60 per cent of the web sites market that runs on windows,macs,and unix.

.>APP: Short for `application program', as opposed to a systems program. Apps are what systems vendors are forever chasing developers to create for their environments so they can sell more boxes. Hackers tend not to think of the things they themselves run as apps; thus, in hacker parlance the term excludes compilers, program editors, games, and messaging systems, though a user would consider all those to be apps. (Broadly, an app is often a self-contained environment for performing some well-defined task such as `word processing'; hackers tend to prefer more general-purpose tools.) See killer app; oppose tool, operating system.

>.APPLE SHARE:a network o/s devloped by apple to work with other macs,like win nt and win ME are desined to work the together.

>ARCHIE:a client/server program that is used to locate files on anonymous ftp.

>ASCII ART: n. The fine art of drawing diagrams using the ASCII

>ASM(asembly language):is a low level program language which is used for writting small programs and can be used to write viruses.Assembly Languages have the same basic structure as Machine Languages, the difference is that Assembly Languages allow the programmer to use names instead of numbers. As with Machine Languages, every CPU has its own unique machine language. Programs must be rewritten or recompiled, therefore, to run on different types of computers. Nowadays most programming is done with High-Level Programming Languages but in the early days, Assembly language was always used, now it is ONLY used when speed is essential or when the task isn't possible on the High-Level Language we are using. These are considered Low-Level Languages as they are closer to Machine Languages.

>ASYNCHRONOUS TRANSFERE METHOD:A connection-oriented data communications technology based on switching 53 byte fixed-length units of data called cells. Abbreviated ATM. Each cell is dynamically routed. ATM transmission rates are multiples of 51.840 Mbits per second. In the United States, a public communications service called SONET uses ATM at transmission rates of 155, 622, 2048, and 9196 Mbits per second. These are called OC-3, OC-12, OC-48, and OC-192 respectively. A similar service called SDH is offered in Europe. ATM is also used as a LAN infrastructure, sometimes with different transmission rates and coding methods than are offered with SONET and SDH.

>BLUE BOX(not a hacker term but i will mention it): Once upon a time, before all-digital switches made it possible for the phone companies to move them out of band, one could actually hear the switching tones used to route long-distance calls. Early phreakers built devices called `blue boxes' that could reproduce these tones, which could be used to commandeer portions of the phone network. (This was not as hard as it may sound; one early phreak acquired the sobriquet `Captain Crunch' after he proved that he could generate switching tones with a plastic whistle pulled out of a box of Captain Crunch cereal!) There were other colors of box with more specialized phreaking uses; red boxes, black boxes, silver boxes, etc. 2. n. An IBM machine, especially a large (non-PC) one.

>BROWSER:A program specifically designed to help users view and navigate hypertext, on-line documentation, or a database. While this general sense has been present in jargon for a long time, the proliferation of browsers for the World Wide Web after 1992 has made it much more popular and provided a central or default techspeak meaning of the word previously lacking in hacker usage. Nowadays, if someone mentions using a `browser' without qualification, one may assume it is a Web browser.

>CHERNOBYL PACKETL:A network packet that induces a broadcast storm and/or network meltdown, in memory of the April 1986 nuclear accident at Chernobyl in Ukraine. The typical scenario involves an IP Ethernet datagram that passes through a gateway with both source and destination Ether and IP address set as the respective broadcast addresses for the subnetworks being gated between. Compare Christmas tree packet. CIRCLE:This is also a simple setup and poses most of the same problems as the bus NET. Basically, it is just a Bus NET with the two spare ends connected to each other. The main differences between this and the Bus NET is that, each computer acts as an amplifier to the signals passed along it (Active). There is also another communication method used here called token passing. This consists of a token passing along the network, when a computer wishes to pass on information, it will be attached to the token the it will travel round the network until it finds its destination,. The destination will then pick it up copy it and send a new token into the network. If the information in a Circle NET does not find its destination, then it will go in a complete circle and return to the sender with a message, reporting the problem. This type of topology is very similar to the Bus NET with the same drawbacks and the same advantages

>CYPER PUNK:Since 1990 or so, popular culture has included a movement or fashion trend that calls itself `cyberpunk', associated especially with the rave/techno subculture. Hackers have mixed feelings about this. On the one hand, self-described cyberpunks too often seem to be shallow trendoids in black leather who have substituted enthusiastic blathering about technology for actually learning and doing it. Attitude is no substitute for competence. On the other hand, at least cyberpunks are excited about the right things and properly respectful of hacking talent in those who have it. The general consensus is to tolerate them politely in hopes that they'll attract people who grow into being true hackers.

>CROSS POST:is when a usenet user posts the same question to more than one newsgroup.

[outside MIT] Often used equivalently to daemon -- especially in the Unix world, where the latter spelling and pronunciation is considered mildly archaic.

Demons in sense 1 are particularly common in AI programs. For example, a knowledge-manipulation program might implement inference rules as demons. Whenever a new piece of knowledge was added, various demons would activate (which demons depends on the particular piece of data) and would create additional pieces of knowledge by applying their respective inference rules to the original piece. These new pieces could in turn activate more demons as the inferences filtered down through chains of logic. Meanwhile, the main program could continue with whatever its primary task was.

>Fragmentation scanning : This is not a new port scanning method in and of itself, but a modification of other techniques. Instead of just sending the probe packet, you break it into a couple of small IP fragments. You are splitting up the TCP header over several packets to make it harder for packet filters and so forth to detect what you are doing. Be careful with this! Some programs have trouble handling these tiny packets. My favorite sniffer segmentation faulted immediately upon receiving the first 36-byte fragment. After that comes a 24 byte one! While this method won't get by packet filters and firewalls that queue all IP fragments (like the CONFIG_IP_ALWAYS_DEFRAG option in Linux), a lot of networks can't afford the performance hit this causes. This feature is rather unique to scanners (at least I haven't seen any others that do this).

>FTP(file transfere protocol)is a serivice which runs on port 21 an allows users with valid accounts to login and upload files and download files.

>FTP BOUCE ATTACK: An interesting "feature" of the ftp protocol (RFC 959) is support for "proxy" ftp connections. In other words, I should be able to connect from evil.com to the FTP server-PI (protocol interpreter) of target.com to establish the control communication connection. Then I should be able to request that the server-PI initiate an active server-DTP (data transfer process) to send a file ANYWHERE on the internet! Presumably to a User-DTP, although the RFC specifically states that asking one server to send a file to another is OK. Now this may have worked well in 1985 when the RFC was just written. But nowadays, we can't have people hijacking ftp servers and requesting that data be spit out to arbitrary points on the internet. As *Hobbit* wrote back in 1995, this protocol flaw "can be used to post virtually untraceable mail and news, hammer on servers at various sites, fill up disks, try to hop firewalls, and generally be annoying and hard to track down at the same time." What we will exploit this for is to (surprise, surprise) scan TCP ports from a "proxy" ftp server. Thus you could connect to an ftp server behind a firewall, and then scan ports that are more likely to be blocked (139 is a good one). If the ftp server allows reading from and writing to a directory (such as /incoming),

<ICMP(internet control message protocol)is used for when u ping a hosy e.t.c

>ICMP echo scanning :This isn't really port scanning, since ICMP doesn't have a port abstraction. But it is sometimes useful to determine what hosts in a network are up by pinging them all. the -P option does this. ICMP scanning is now in parallel, so it can be quite fast. To speed things up even more, you can increase the number of pings in parallel with the '-L ' option. It can also be helpful to tweek the ping timeout value with '-T '. nmap supports a host/bitmask notation to make this sort of thing easier. For example 'nmap -P cert.org/24 152.148.0.0/16' would scan CERT's class C network and whatever class B entity 152.148.* represents. Host/26 is useful for 6-bit subnets within an organization. Nmap now also offers a more powerful form. You can now do things like '150.12,17,71-79.7.*' and it will do what you expect

>TCP connect() scanning : This is the most basic form of TCP scanning. The connect() system call provided by your operating system is used to open a connection to every interesting port on the machine. If the port is listening, connect() will succeed, otherwise the port isn't reachable. One strong advantage to this technique is that you don't need any special privileges. Any user on most UNIX boxes is free to use this call. Another advantage is speed. While making a separate connect() call for every targeted port in a linear fashion would take ages over a slow connection, you can hasten the scan by using many sockets in parallel. Using non-blocking I/O allows you to set a low time-out period and watch all the sockets at once. This is the fastest scanning method supported by nmap, and is available with the -t (TCP) option. The big downside is that this sort of scan is easily detectable and filterable. The target hosts logs will show a bunch of connection and error messages for the services which take the connection and then have it immediately shutdown.

>TCPDUMB:is a unix packet sniffer used by admins to moniter their traffic,hackers use it to sniff for passwords,e.t.c

>TCP FIN PORT SCANNING : There are times when even SYN scanning isn't clandestine enough. Some firewalls and packet filters watch for SYNs to restricted ports, and programs like synlogger and Courtney are available to detect these scans. FIN packets, on the other hand, may be able to pass through unmolested. This scanning technique was featured in detail by Uriel Maimon in Phrack 49, article 15. The idea is that closed ports tend to reply to your FIN packet with the proper RST. Open ports, on the other hand, tend to ignore the packet in question. As Alan Cox has pointed out, this is required TCP behavior. However, some systems (notably Micro$oft boxes), are broken in this regard. They send RST's regardless of the port state, and thus they aren't vulnerable to this type of scan. It works well on most other systems I've tried. Actually, it is often useful to discriminate between a *NIX and NT box, and this can be used to do that.

>TCP REVERSE IDENT PORT SCANNING: As noted by Dave Goldsmith in a 1996 Bugtraq post, the ident protocol (rfc1413) allows for the disclosure of the username of the owner of any process connected via TCP, even if that process didn't initiate the connection. So you can, for example, connect to the http port and then use identd to find out whether the server is running as root. This can only be done with a full TCP connection to the target port

>TCP SYN PORT SCANNING: This technique is often referred to as "half-open" scanning, because you don't open a full TCP connection. You send a SYN packet, as if you are going to open a real connection and wait for a response. A SYN|ACK indicates the port is listening. A RST is indicative of a non- listener. If a SYN|ACK is received, you immediately send a RST to tear down the connection (actually the kernel does this for us). The primary advantage to this scanning technique is that fewer sites will log it.

BASIC IRC COMMANDS
----------------------
Irc has a nice gui but to get the most out of it requires knowning the
commands,so here is a few commands:

/ADMIN
Displays the administrative details about a server.

/AWAY <away-message>
Leave a message explaining that you are not currently paying attention to IRC. EXAMPLE:
/AWAY getting coffee, be back in 5 mins = You have been marked as being away
[ if somebody does /whois YourNick now, they will get the 3 lines like
above, plus a final line saying "*** YourNick is away: getting coffee,
be back in 5 mins". ]

/AWAY without any additional argument will remove the away-message.
EXAMPLE:
/AWAY = You are no longer marked as being away

/BAN <#channel> <nick[!user@host]> <maskmode>
Bans a particular nick from EVER joining the specified channel, until /UNBANned.

/FINGER <user@host>
EXAMPLE: /finger christinag@hair.net Used to look at information
about a user, generally by their E-mail address, using the UNIX FINGER protocol.T
he information returned by this command will depend on what information each
individual host wishes to make public about their users.

/INVITE <nick> <#channel>
Invites another user to a channel. If no channel is specified, your current channel
is used. In that case, you have to be on a channel for this to work. If you
receive an /INVITE message, you may then type /JOIN <#channel> to go there.

/JOIN <#channel>
Changes your current channel to the channel specified. If the channel does not exist
already, it will be created and you will be the new channel operator.

/KICK <#channel> <nick> <your comment>
Forces the client <nick> to be removed from the channel.

/LEAVE <#channel>
Leaves the specified channel, or if not channel is specified, leaves the current channel.

/LINKS <server.address>
The LINKS command shows all the servers currently on your network.

/LIST
Lists all current irc channels, number of users, and topic.

/LUSERS
Gives a brief listing of the number of users, the number of servers and the number of operators.

/ME <action>
EXAMPLE: /me does the Macarena. The /me command is used to describe an action.
Your nick will automatically be inserted and the text will appear differently
than normal channel messages. This command can be used in channels or private
message windows and dcc chats.

/MODE <#channel> +(or)-<modechars> <parameters>
Sets the mode for the channel, private, invite, secret & more
Expanded info under post listing "OPS STUFF"

/MOTD
Gives the message-of-the-day for a server.

/MSG <nick> <your message>
Use the /MSG command to send someone a message that only that person can read.
To answer to such a message, you have two options:
1. You type /MSG <nick_of_person_who_sent_you_the_message> <reply>
2. You type /MSG , <reply>
The comma (,) is an abbreviation for "last person who sent me a message".
In a similar fashion, the dot (.) in a /MSG command is an abbreviation for
"last person to whom I sent a message".

/NAMES <#channel>
Shows the nicknames of all users on that channel

/NICK <new_nick>

Change your nickname.

/PART <#channel>
Parts the channel, but remain on the IRC. When you leave, all other channel
members will be notified of your departure.

/PING <nick> and /CTCP <nick> PING
These commands are used to determine the length of time it takes to send a
signal to another person on IRC and then back again.

/QUERY <nick>
You can have a private conversation by using /MSG <nick> repeatedly,
but that can get cumbersome. That's where the QUERY command comes in handy.

/QUIT <your farewell message>
Exits IRC (also leaves any channels you may be on).
EXAMPLE: /QUIT hasta la vista, baby! = *** Signoff: YourNick (hasta la vista, baby!)

/TIME
Displays the current (local) time on the server machine.

/TOPIC <#channel> <new topic for channel>
Changes the topic for channel.

/WHOIS <nick>
Shows the "real name" behind a nick, any public channels s/he may be on, and the server s/he is using.

/WHOWAS <nick>
Provides the same basic information as /whois but can be used for a limited time after
the person has left IRC or has changed their nickname.

one other thing to note is unix and windows irc commands are slightly
different sometimes for help type /help in your irc client.

IRC DICTIOANRY
-----------------

note:for more addional words see the main hacker dictioanry.

Addy - Addy = Address. Pretty self explanatory, if some one asks for your
"e-mail addy", they want your e-mail address.

Aliases - Aliases are short macros written within your IRC client application to create shortcuts, run scripts or issue IRC commands simply.

Bots - A bot (short for robot) is an IRC user that is not a user at all, but is a collection of scripted IRC commands running as a program within the IRC client program. It only responds to things done to it, or things that it is programmed to do. There are a few bots that serve purposes. These bots are usually game related. It is considered good IRC etiquette to include the word "BOT" in the bot's nickname if you are running one on a channel. Bots are generallyconsidered a nuisance on IRC and using one on most IRC servers will get you "k-lined". If there are bots taking up 10 connections, that is 10 less real people that can be online, and IRC =is= a place for chatting after all.

ChanOp - Operator of the Channel, usually has a @before their name

Clones - A clone is someone logged on to your channel more than once. I've seen people refer to these as "ghosts" here on DM. Not the same
thing! (see ghost) Coming in as a clone on most IRC channels will result in a quick KICK and a BAN. If you are testing scripts or software, cloning yourself on a private channel can be useful -- but it is generally considered to be bad IRC form to come in as a clone on a busy channel as it takes up a connection that a real person could be using.

Flooding - Flooding can be anything that disrupts the channel or even trashes an individuals computer...examples being gargantuan text files sent to the channel, DCC SENDS of god-knows-what to individuals, repeated and intensive /msg sends, etc. A very good idea to enable Flood Protection in your IRC client application & disable automated DCC/CTCP receives.

Ghost - A ghost (or ghosting) occurs when you quit a channel abruptly and log back in immediately. Many times your former log-in will still exist
on the channel if you didn't quit/part using those commands. Generally the Channel Op will KICK your former log-in (ghost)if it doesn't go away by it's ghostly self.

IRC - IRC is an acronym for Internet Relay Chat..proper usage is "I'm IRC-ing" as opposed to "I am IRC Chatting" <G>

IRC Client - This refers to the particular software or method that the user (such as you) runs to connect to a server on one of the IRC nets. For instance, if you use mIRC to access IRC, that is your IRC client...others would be Comic Chat, IRCle, pIRCh, etc.

IRCop - Operator of the IRC. This is not a "COP", but they do keep an eye out for weirdness on the IRC server.

K-Lined - If you are K-lined, it simply means that a server is set to
automatically KILL your connection. This can happen if you have mis-behaved on a server -- or it may happen if you are not an authorized user on that particular IRC server.

Lags - A lag is the time in seconds that it takes the text you just entered to reach the screen of the person you are talking to. A lag of a second or two is not too bad, but anything over 10 seconds is considered a bad lag. You can check lag by /ping-ing the other client. Lag can be caused by a variety of factors, including: a noisy phone line, trouble with your ISP, trouble with your IRC client, trouble with the IRC server, trying to do other things while on IRC (ftp-ing, web browsing, etc.), overcrowded channel. In order to acheive
the best connections in IRC, you want to have the most direct route to the people you are chatting with. Server connections are often made up of many many nodes, and the more nodes between you and the other person, the higher the possibility is of lags and netsplits occuring.

'Leet - 'Leet equals "elite", usually used to refer to a well-written script, program or bot.

LYB - Ask Shannon about this one! LOL!!!

Netsplit - Netsplits are a major cause of lag. A netsplit happens when a server in your connection loses contact with the rest of the servers. You can see a Netsplit occurring if you notice people on your "notify list" signing on & off manytimes during your session -- or if members of your channel suddenly quit in a way that resembles: "Signoff:nick1
(irc.gate.example.edu). You may also notice your lag time increasing, or jumping from no lag to very long periods of lag. You can try to change servers at this point by typing: /server (new-server-name [port#if specified]) EXAMPLE: /server irc.dm.net 4000

Scripts - Scripts are small programs designed to run within an IRC client, usually using the client's built in scripting language.

WareZ - Channels with "warez" "appz" "krackz" and "hackz" (or any variation thereof are IRC channels (highly illegal and punishable by death if seen on DM) that distribute pirated copies of software. Warez channels move around a lot. Since they are illegal they are viewed by many IRC users as good targets for flooding, channel takeovers & general warfare.

Crackers, Phreaks, and Lamers

From the early 1980s onward, a flourishing culture of local, MS-DOS-based bulletin boards developed separately from Internet hackerdom. The BBS culture has, as its seamy underside, a stratum of `pirate boards' inhabited by crackers, phone phreaks, and warez d00dz. These people (mostly teenagers running IBM-PC clones from their bedrooms) have developed their own characteristic jargon, heavily influenced by skateboard lingo and underground-rock slang.

Though crackers often call themselves `hackers', they aren't (they typically have neither significant programming ability, nor Internet expertise, nor experience with UNIX or other true multi-user systems). Their vocabulary has little overlap with hackerdom's. Nevertheless, this lexicon covers much of it so the reader will be able to understand what goes by on bulletin-board systems.

Here is a brief guide to cracker and warez d00dz usage:

Misspell frequently. The substitutions

phone => fone freak => phreak

are obligatory.

Always substitute `z's for `s's. (i.e. "codes" -> "codez"). The substitution of 'z' for 's' has evolved so that a 'z' is bow systematically put at the end of words to denote an illegal or cracking connection. Examples : Appz, passwordz, passez, utilz, MP3z, distroz, pornz, sitez, gamez, crackz, serialz, downloadz, FTPz, etc. Type random emphasis characters after a post line (i.e. "Hey Dudes!#!$#$!#!$"). Use the emphatic `k' prefix ("k-kool", "k-rad", "k-awesome") frequently. Abbreviate compulsively ("I got lotsa warez w/ docs"). Substitute `0' for `o' ("r0dent", "l0zer"). TYPE ALL IN CAPS LOCK, SO IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE YELLING ALL THE TIME.

These traits are similar to those of B1FF, who originated as a parody of naive BBS users; also of his latter-day equivalent Jeff K.. Occasionally, this sort of distortion may be used as heavy sarcasm by a real hacker, as in:

> I got X Windows running under Linux!

d00d! u R an 31337 hax0r

The only practice resembling this in actual hacker usage is the substitution of a dollar sign of `s' in names of products or service felt to be excessively expensive, e.g. Compu$erve, Micro$oft.

i wont mention any more because when u visit these sites there thousand of more
links.

I wont mention any more newsgroups,but u can find lots more by searching!,but i
would not recommend going to all those passwords newsgroups as their too much
ppl posting shit,even alt.2600 is going down hill because of all the users who
post spam,unrelated content,e.t.c.
alt.2600.hackers takes spammers,and people
who post shit very serious,alt.2600.hackers doesnt get much lamers and spammers
because of this.

NOTE:these are basic program ,theres thousands more like dig,pc
anywhere,ssh,dhcp,e.t.c

1.Un needed services.
2.Misconfiggured firewalls!
3.File and printer sharing!
4.Hackers tunneling though from ftp and telnet.
5.On windows script kiddies often send trojans!
6.Exploits!
7.Sniffing attacks.
8.Buggy software!
9.Miconfigguered servers.
10.Allowing root remotly with no encryption.
11.brute force.
12.Weak passwords.
13.Users with no firewalls.
14.Remote admin Trojans.
15.Using adsl with no hacker protechtion.
16.Allowing user access to /etc/passwd.
17.Allowing anonymous access to servers.
18.Open ports.
19.Not using tcp logging.
20.Using out of date softwere.

1.How to use windows comprehensivly.
2.Some short programming knowledge in c or basic,e.t.c.
3.MS dos knowledge.
4.Networking knowlege like tcp/ip.
5.Unix and linux knowlege.
6.Some scripting knowledge like html,perl or batch programming.
7.Computer security tools like firewalls.
8.Hacking techniques.
9.Web browsers,ftp clients,irc clients,servers,e.t.c are good to very
worth learning.
10.Hiding their ip address.

These can usally be learned eaisly in 3 months and upwards,once u learn these stuff everything else becomes easily to learn.

1.PHREAKING.........usally the guides are out of date and useless.
2.Cracking.
3.Old hacking guides older than 10 years old.
4.Low level programming.......although as u become a hacker or good programmer
you will need to learn it.
5.machine language.......absoultly not worth learning as it can take years and it's far to slow.
6.Bomb making.
7.Lanaguages like forth,and fortran....well learn them if you want but in a
few years they will be almost never be used as much as languages like c,python,c++,c#,and visual basic.
8.Visual Basic.......its currently hated amongst the hacker community but learn it if you want to although it can teach newbie programmer very bad techniques and habbits.

new note:visual basic isnt as bad as described ,it can be quite useful and
easy.

9.Credit card fraud.

10.DoSing
