Dunkield Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 OK, so we have known for years now that the technology is available to track a mobile phone from it's signal to about 150 yards, using triangulation from 3 transmitters. This version of the tool, has now been made available to the public for the first time in Beta format. Give it try - see if it will locate your loved ones mobile signal: http://www.sat-gps-locate.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Okay the best bit of that was that it took an age to load up and my phone rang in the meantime. Just as my client was put through and we started speaking the banjo music kicked in very loudly through the external speakers. The best one however was the "****" bit of sillyware that did the rounds about 7 years ago - it was like a virus and it would sit in the back ground and randomly make loud farting noises. Its randomness was its key to success - again, loud quack right in the middle of an important phone call and I just corpsed. Most unprofessional.

pin Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 A long time ago now there was a bit of software called "back orifice" - sounds ghey but it was actually extremely funny. If you managed to get someone to install it you had complete control of their PC. You could reverse the mouse axis, make the cd tray eject repeatedly, make it bring up windows error messages with anything you liked in them - just about anything. I think I nearly caused a breakdown in a mate of mine who owned an internet cafe. I installed it on all his machines (all 22 of them) and once a day, just as he was having his lunch every single one of them, with a slight delay, would play the French national anthem at double speed and repeatedly eject and retract the cd tray. It did this for nearly 6 weeks before he finally worked it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually it`s a lot less than that as we catch those silly pranksters that dial 999 from a mobile and expect not to get caught Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We managed at school to access it through the fact the admin didn't delete the orginal hard drive programs just deleted shortcuts etc so you could creat a quicklaunch button for any basic windows program. Then set Netmeeting remote desktop up and voila! Another good un' we did at school was using VB on public machines to make office programs automatically close the file everytime someone opened a file, really annoying people The other VB trick was to edit the New function to include a loop which on windows 98 (when office opened an entire new version for every file) would result in a huge, unstoppable continuing creation of new documents until the RAM died and the computer crashed. As you can see I was a hard worker at school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

naddan28 Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Its not hacking firstly and also there is a difference between a practical joke and milacious hacking. All of the above you have quoted done by me and pin were practical jokes on people (mainly friends). Just because the joke involves technology its no different from placing a bucket of water over a door or tieing someone's shoe laces together etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
