- Hacker Wargame Research Project -
The
wargame is a specially designed internet connected network running
Microsoft Windows 2000 Servers with IIS, Exchange and MS-SQL. Each participant
(that's you) will have to complete 3 specific hacking goals on these Microsoft
based servers, so you gotta know how to hack a 'doze box to play our little
game. We will be studying how you complete the goals for our "cognitive
research" which is the study of how people think. If we select you to
participate in the wargame research project, and you are successful in
achieving the three project goals and follow the simple steps we outline, you
will be paid a minimum of US$250.
- Shift key breaks CD copy locks - In a paper published on his Web
site this week, Princeton Ph.D. student John Halderman explained how he
disabled a new kind of copy-protection technology, distributed as part of a
new album by BMG soul artist Anthony Hamilton. Under normal circumstances, the
antipiracy software is automatically loaded onto a Windows machine whenever
the Hamilton album is run in a computer's CD drive, making traditional copying
or MP3 ripping impossible. However,
simply holding down the Shift key prevents Windows' AutoRun feature from
loading the copy-protection software, leaving the music free to copy,
Halderman said
