[----Stay anonymous on the web------] ..By MAx member of :MPD: (c) 1998 MAx [4d5044] Note..This tutorial will teach a average day user how to keep all his Esentual info limited so attacks from Hackers cant be made SHouth outs: Myth leader of MPD u rule dude,All members of MPD, and everyone else who i should shout out too u know who u are. The topics.. 1.What are packets. 2.Getting a http proxy. 3.How http proxy work. 4.How to secrure http packets. 5.How to edit what o's and mozilla info send. 6.Getting a socket proxy. 7.How socket proxy work. 8.Cookies. 9.Final note. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 1.What are packets. Packets are very simple on the net There are millions of user's now for secrurity and other reasons there must be ways of establishing difference between user's Thus is done by packets, Packets are used when ever u connect to a remote server/system Its identify's who is connecting. An example of a http packet.( [Connect from MAx.mpd.com] [206.14.13.32] (Mozilla/4.05 [en] (X11;I;Linux 2.0.34 i586) on December 2, 1998 at 14:34:45 ) Now ill tell u what it is saying if u dont know. *Note*(Http packets is the way u are sending info through the web browser whenever u connect to a server/mechine/site ) [connected from MAx.mpd.com]-This is my host [206.14.13.32]- is my ip (Mozilla/4.05)- is the version of mozilla im using (X11;I;Linux 2.0.32 i586)- Is The O's(operating system) And version of the o's im running [On december 2, 1998 at 14:34:45] - is day/year/time Now u know how it works this is one way Hackers get all the info they need on your computer to hack it. Now we dont want this anymore THus anonymous proxies where invented to give keep user's on the net secrure.Using anonymous proxies isnt 100% secrure as the hacker can still do means on getting your real ip/host/os ill talk about that later but it makes it very hard for a hacker to get your ip/host once behind a proxy. Now http isnt the only means of packets there are also socket packets which ill talk about later. 2.How http proxy work. A http proxy works like server it is actuelly and what it does is when setup in your browser when ever u want to go to sites.It will connect to there proxy server first then the proxy server conncts to the site u want to go to THus leaving no evendence of u on the site just the proxy server.(Dont worry once u setup a proxy dont think u always have to type in the proxy in first then go to there and type the site u want too go to. :)It dont work like that once u have entered the proxy settings in ya browser it will auto do the proxy for u all u have to do is surf the net.(Setting up a http proxy descussed later) 3. Getting a http proxy Http proxies are very easyly found on the net as there are many commited Http proxy server's around that are free. Ill give a list of some http proxies for your all sorry if your country proxy isn't here just search on the net for (Http proxy) and ull find one. ***Austria*** Port cache02.netway.at :80 mail.ppl.co.at :8080 speth08.wu-wien.ac.at :8080 pong.ping.at :8080 ***Australia*** proxy.gwbbs.net.au :80 chrome.one.net.au :8080 proxy.newave.net.au :8080 ws.edi.com.au :80 mimas.scu.edu.au :80 proxy.omcs.com.au :8080 jethro.meriden.pas.com.au:8080 albany.jrc.net.au :80 basil.acr.net.au :8080 ***Belgium*** cache-mar.belbone.be :80 ***Bulgaria*** conan.gocis.bg :8080 ***Brazil*** 200.250.14.5)ct-nt-02.cybertelecom.com.br :8080 sanan.com.br :8080 ***Canada*** proxy.collegemv.qc.ca :8080 srvprx.cspaysbleuets.qc.ca :80 valliere.csvalliere.qc.ca :80 keeper.albertc.on.ca :8080 cproxy1.justice.gc.ca :80 proxy.cslouis-hemon.qc.ca :8080 gateway.kwantlen.bc.ca :80 ***Switzerland*** cache1.worldcom.ch :8080 cache2.worldcom.ch :8080 cache3.worldcom.ch :8080 web-cache-2.cern.ch :80 proxy.span.ch :8080 gip-lausanne-nc.globalip.ch :80 gip-lausanne-cf2.globalip.ch :8080 gip-lausanne-cf1.globalip.ch :8080 proxy2.iso.ch :8080 proxy.iprolink.ch :80 ***China*** proxy.szptt.net.cn :8080 ***United States*** hpux.mesd.k12.or.us :8080 gatekeeper.ci.slc.ut.us :8080 episd.elpaso.k12.tx.us :8080 svc.logan.k12.ut.us :8001 proxy.eup.k12.mi.us :8080 svc.nues.k12.ut.us :8001 proxy.eup.k12.mi.us :8080 (207.78.252.100)oakweb.oak-web.washington-ch.oh.us :80 homnibus.nvc.cc.ca.us :80 et.mohave.cc.az.us :80 (ok id say i gave out enough if ya local country not there go search the net and if cant find use another country one that is close to u) 4.How to secrure Http packets Like i said before this is a normal http packet ( [Connect from MAx.mpd.com] [206.14.13.32] (Mozilla/4.05 [en] (X11;I;Linux 2.0.34 i586) on December 2, 1998 at 14:34:45 ) Now to Make your ip and host anonymous to web browsing we are going to use http proxy with ya browser.THis is done by going to ya options and finding the info on proxy settings in thus put in all avalable places in proxy setting etc.ftp,http,secruity, Except leave sockets part blank THis isnt a socket proxy its a http Now after setting up a proxy in the proxy settings and putting in the port too.Our new packets will look like this. ( [Connect from The_proxies_host] [The_proxies_ip] (Mozilla/4.05 [en] (X11;I;Linux 2.0.34 i586) on December 2, 1998 at 14:34:45 ) Now u might be thinking cool :) No longer have everdence of me on there server but dam they know my o's and version of mozilla later on ill descuse how to change that.U might also be thinking WOW now i can surf 100% secure on the net.U are not totally right.IF a hacker had a real grunge on u.He has now the proxy u are using there ip/host now if he wants to get your info that badly he would have to hack the proxy server comapare the log time of the time u loged to the hacker's site too the logs of your connection to the proxy server.THus is a real big job and if pick a good proxy server they will be very secure from attack's So your pritty much safe. 5.How to edit the o's and mozilla info send. Ok if your using Ie this is how u would do it. To see Original Settings GOTO HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings User Agent = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 4.01; Windows 95; (Your Orginial Settings)) (Skip this Part here) GOTO HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion ProductName = Microsoft Windows 95 Version = Windows 95 GOTO HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform (Your Orignial Settings Here) = IEAK(Your Orignial Settings Here) Example GOTO HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\User Agent\Post Platform Myth [Unix-Base] = IEAKMyth [Unix-Base] *Note (this info on how to change the mozilla and version shown was given to me from Myth i didn't make it.) 6.Getting a socket proxy. Ok now socket proxies work like Http proxies the only diff is socket proxies are used with programs like (icq,mirc) And the packets are send through sockets not http.Getting a socket proxy is alot harder because Socket proxy server's have to be dedicated to a sertain program so its very limiting to the amount of user's he will get. Http is always used its using the web everyone uses it so http proxies are always going to be in need. TO find a socket proxy u can search the net typing in (Socket proxy) or try for sertain program's names like (Icq proxy). Hopefully u will get one socket proxies are useful as alot of attacks on user's are done by kids with nukes,spring,ping,smurf,etc etc And thus will anoy a user in mirc or from icq both these programs give any user possability to get a user's ip/host. thats why if u use these u will want a socket proxy. Alot of people go why dont u just use ident or jizz or something for mirc and icq.Well the reason u don't as there are expolits out there to crash spoofed hosts/ip for programs like jizz and ident a proxy is more stable way and more prevention then a spoofer program.
