How to manually block any website on your pc?

Tweet

Hi friends, this is Sheharyar Sikandar, how are you guys doin? Hope everything is cool at your side :))

So guys ever wanted to restrict some website on your pc? May be you don't want your kids to visit certain websites or something like that. So here is how you can block any website manually on your pc.

You can do that by making some simple changes to your hosts file using notepad.

Where is hosts file located?

• For windows NT/ 200/ XP/2003/Vista/7, it is in C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\
• For Linux and Unix it is located at /etc/hosts
• For Mac OS 9 and earlier, go to System Folder -->Preferences
• For Mac OS X, it is at /private/etc/hosts

Open hosts file in notepad, its should look like this :

Now in the end of this script you just have to add

127.0.0.1 websiteyouwanttoblock

For example you want to block google.com, then you will add 
following lines at the end,

127.0.0.1 www.google.com

127.0.0.1 google.com

and save it, now you will no longer have access to google.com and you are done!

But here is a little problem for windows 7 users. You can't edit the hosts file. So,

For Windows 7 users

Here is what you can do to edit hosts file, as earlier my friend xeo had already mentioned 'how windows 7 users can edit hosts file' in his tutorial of cracking idm manually, so i am quoting the same method here,

• "Right click on hosts file and go to its properties then go to Security tab select Users under Group or user names and click on edit button,Permission For Host Window will get open.
•  In that window select Users account and grant permission in bellow section which is “Permission for SYSTEM” by clicking all checkbox under “Allow” Name and press Ok.Don't click on any Deny check box.
• Otherwise the best option is copy this hosts file to desktop and delete it from etc folder…Now edit hosts file(which copied on desktop)…Make changes according to next step, now again do it copy to etc folder.. "

So that's it you are done, I hope you got it, still have any queries just comment. :))

Designing blogger templates, widgets, icons, buttons is more like a hobby now but taking a step further and branding a service and product on Facebook was a complete new experience. The Facebook application used in building this Welcome Page is called Static HTML IFrame Tabs.  My coming tutorials on this are close to never shared before on any blog, forum or even the Facebook developers page and most often this is done at premium levels but you will be really excited to implement it to your blogs once we publish the series Guide for free. Your motivation has helped me a lot in taking this step and I will need your valuable support always. I am really excited to share this unique "Facebook Welcome Page"  of TEP. So let's have a look of it:

PS: Please view it using any browser but not IE. The Page is Compatible with Mozilla, Chrome, Safari and even slightly with IE8+

TEP Fans Welcome Page

I will publish series of posts on this topic with free and unique Code designs and will make sure that the coding is made as easy in implementation as possible. I would be more happy viewing your Welcome Pages with different colors and tastes. Peace and blessings. :)

Need your Feedback on this!

I will highly appreciate your precious feedback on this latest finding. Your comments mean a lot. If you have any idea you can share before we publish the tutorials then please share it openly with all of us. I would love to hear how you like it.

Undo Sent Emails in Gmail

Tweet

Did you know you can undo a sent e-mail in Gmail? It’s a lesser known feature, but Google just made it even better than it was before. When it first launched, you were given a 5-second window during which you could hit “undo.” Now that’s up to 30 seconds, Google Operating System Discovered.
The feature is hidden from most users who don’t know where to look, so here’s a quick guide to avoiding social and workplace faux pas with the click of a button. Be aware that the feature is part of Gmail Labs, though. That means it’s still in testing and it might not always work as intended.

• Go to Gmail Lab

Since the Undo Send feature is part of Gmail Labs, you’ll have to navigate to the Gmail Labs page to activate it. Load up Gmail and look in the top-right corner of the page. Between your e-mail address and Settings you’ll see the green Labs icon. Give it a click.

• Enable “Undo Send” and Save Your Change.

 You’ll be presented with a list of features Google is testing in Gmail. Some are very useful and some are just fun. We’ve gone into more depth on all Gmail Labs has to offer in previous articles, but this time we’re here just for the Undo Send feature.You’ll usually find it close to the bottom of the list. We’ve included a picture of it above so you know what you’re looking for. Just select Enable then scroll down and save your changes.

• Customize Undo Send’s Duration

 By default, Gmail gives you a 10-second window of time in which you may undo a sent e-mail. You can change that to five, 20 or 30 seconds by going to Settings (in the top right corner of the main Gmail page, right next to the Labs icon) and finding the Undo Send section inside the “General” tab.

There you can enable or disable Undo Send and change the duration with a drop-down selection box as pictured above.

• Write and Send Your E-mail

 Now that Undo Send is enabled, it works each time you send a new e-mail. You don’t have to do anything unusual beforehand to make it possible to use Undo Send with that e-mail.

• Click the “Undo” Button After You Send

 Now you have either five, 10, 20 or 30 seconds to undo your sent e-mail, depending on what you selected under Settings.As soon as you hit Send, a subtle line of text will appear above your Inbox saying “Your message has been sent.”

It will be accompanied by a few extra options. Among them is “Undo.” Click that within the allotted time and your faux pas will be prevented.Note that you can hit “Z” on your keyboard, the Gmail shortcut for undo.

Just don’t navigate away from or close this page, because once you do, you’ll lose the opportunity to undo your sent message forever.

• “Sending Has Been Undone”

You’ll immediately be taken back to the e-mail composition page, and your e-mail will be in draft form, unsent and ready for further editing — or deletion, if writing it was ill-advised to begin with!

Hacker attack techniques and tactics: Understanding hacking strategies

Tweet

Introduction of hacking

Although this famous Chinese general determines nothing about hacking techniques as he had heard 2,500 years ago, "The Art of War," wrote so you have to agree with his recommendation to know that it is very good, the enemy and his techniques only. If they had a network administrator, then one of its main tasks the defense of their own systems. Knowing what attacks are possible and how to combat them is a huge help and allows them to keep their systems from damage. Although there are thousands of possible attacks, which are read in countless books and websites to the smallest detail, to give them the following five categories an excellent overview of the lion's share of attacks that may threaten their systems.

Standard Attacks

Nowadays you get any hardware or network application on the market in the rule with the following settings: User name and password that allow an administrator to access the system. One of the most common ways to get unauthorized access to a system is that the administrators do not change these default settings. Whether this is a database application, a router or a printer - the protection against these attacks is very simple. The first thing that should make everyone, if she/he is a new system connects to a network or install an application on a server, the immediate need to change the default access settings.

Phishing

Phishing is probably the technique of virtual identity theft more popular than exists on the network because of its effectiveness, but much of this honor comes on the basis of its establishment and procedure, which may be of the most easy and economical to carry out. What usually happens is that the perpetrators make a false application, message, mail or any means with the aim of bringing the user to log into your account, for example, its commercial banks to continue with whatever was interested in the message? The trick is that when the user enters their email address and your password on the wrong page of your bank, the information sent to a text file on the server hosting the fake page or by mail to which it attacks.

Stealers

Leaves many users store passwords you use every day in browsers, but beyond that anyone can enter and go to these passwords manually, as there are applications that automatically stealers steal sensitive data through commands stored very easy to perform or even GUIs accessible to any attacker. Its use with auto run pen drives can be a powerful combination.

Parallel Session Hijacking (Side jacking)

Similar in function and objectives that the hijacking, but the difference this time take advantage of victims who are connected to the same network or public wi-fi open the perpetrator. The side jacking is a normal session hijacking, but over wi-fi networks, so that the process is similar. Applications that performs sniffing, using both Chrome and Firefox that to have Fire sheep, that shows the active sessions and unprotected in a wireless network.

DNS Spoofing

It is very similar to phishing. That is, if you share with someone local network connection and this person wants to know your password, say, Facebook, you can create a site using redirection reply and that opens when you enter the actual address of Facebook. In this case, you are giving data directly to this person and probably not because you find out could then send the information, we redirect back to the beginning of simulating a bad original Facebook password input or redirected to your profile through the creation of a parallel process that takes center stage once the part of data theft.
