Create your own FUD trojan Stub &How to make Virus undetectable:

Create your own FUD trojan Stub &How to make Virus undetectable:

So, some crypters and viruses are now detected as hacktools by antiviruses and are of no use now. Bunn has created Fly Crypter which has unique stub generator. So, you can create your own stub and so your crypter becomes your own private version crypter because you can assign and use new stubs to viruses and thus helping your virus program to remain FUD.

How to make Virus undetectable:

Usually, Viruses are detected because their stubs are detected as viruses by AVs. So, if you change stub of viruses, most of times, they become undetectable to antiviruses. So, I am explaining you how to create your own stub and how to use this your self-created stub to make your virus FUD (Fully UnDetecatable) to antiviruses. This Crypter is tested by me and found working well on Windows XP and Windows Vista.
1. Free Download Fly Crypter + Unique Stub Generator software.Here
Password: techotips.blogspot.com

2. Run AUSG.exe file on your computer to see:

Make virus trojan FUD

3. Select "Str. Encr." and "Stub Encryption" options as I have selected above. Now, hit on "Generate my Stub". Allow some time for AUSG.exe to generate stub for you. After sometime, you'll get a confirmation message.

4. Now, hit on "Compile my stub" and you'll again get message like this:

Compile stub

Note: If you get error messages over here, repeat from Step 2 using "Random Passwords length" value less than 5.

5. Now, move on to directory containing Fly Crypter and AUSG.exe file. You will now see around 4 or 5 random string newly created files. One of those files is your newly created FUD Stub. Let this be "XlbAtKQ.exe".

6. Now, open Fly Crypter.exe. Create Apocalypse server and simply drag and drop this server on Fly Crypter.



7. Right click on server.exe, select Main Options -> Custom Stub and new popup box will be displayed.

How to make your own stub

Now, browse to your newly created stub "XlbAtKQ.exe" and hit OK. Select any password level and hit OK.

8. Again Right Click -> Crypt files and enter the name and path where you wanna save the newly created crypted virus file.

9. Now, you have your crypted file ready to hack passwords and access pc remotely for you. Go to novirsthanks.org and scan your stub and crypted file. You will find the detection rate decreased significantly.

Note 1: For AUSG.exe to compile your stub, you should haveMicrosoft Visual basic 6 installed on your computer.

Note 2: If you aren't getting FUD stub, just select the antiviruses you wanna bypass. Now, create stubs and start scanning them at novirusthanks.org. This method is used to collect and group stubs undetectable by specific antiviruses. Here is one stub which is not detected by most famous AVs as today's scanner results indicate:
- Avira
- AVG
- Avast
- Bit Defender
- Kaspersky
- Quick Heal
- Panda

Free Download this Stub over

Update: This method is not working 100%. As some of the readers have reported this to be not working with many keyloggers like Ardamax keylogger, General keylogger and so. (Thanks George, Riya and Central2000 for your valuable feedback). So friends, try this out with your server whether if this works and please mention your feedback. If this is not working for you, try out crypter softwares.

Develop your own stubs. Now, all resides on you to make your trojans and viruses undetectable, since you are now able to develop your own stubs.

So friends, I hope this tutorial on how to make your own stubs to make your virus trojan undetectable by antiviruses will be helpful to you. If you have any problem in using Fly Crypter and AUSG.exe files to make your own stubs, please mention it in comments.

Enjoy and make your trojans undetectable..

WHAT IS PRORAT AND HOW ITS WORKS....!!!!!

WHAT IS PRORAT AND HOW ITS WORKS....

PRORAT is a powerfull remote administrator tool(RAT) or you can say it Trojan. ProRat was written in C++ programming language and its capable to work with all windows operating systems.

To make process and connect to a PC with ProRat v2.0 you must create a server with your own properties by using the client. Send the server to the PC' you want to connect and be sure that he opened the server. IP address, port number and server password will be sent to the notification address you set when creating the server. Write all of the information we sent you to the client and then Click on the "Connect" button. You will be connected to the server. if you want to logoff from the server click on the "Disconnect" button.
All kind of user problems with PRORAT you can solve in http://www.prorat.net/forum 

You can use prorat for a legel connection and for a hacking purpose.

Tips which can help you when connecting through prorat.
To connect to a PC with ProRaT client the server should not have to be directly connected to internet. so if the PC is behind a network and has a IP address like “192.168.0.* or if its behind a Router and has a IP like “10.*.*.* you will beable to connect with PRORAT, you must be a Special Edition user to do this process. Public Edition users can not use reverse connection to connect to PC 's behind networks and routers. You can only use Reverse Connection feature which you can connect to PC's which are behind networks and routers in PRORAT SPECIAL EDITION.
PRORAT will not send any keylogg files or any passwords to your email address. PRORAT is a "ProHack Remote Administrator Tool" you can only get the keylogg files and passwords you want to learn by connect to the victims PC.
You can connect to all PC in your country and other country’s as well. If the victim is connected to internet this will be enough.
If you cant connect to a victim this doesn’t mean that you cannot connect to all victims. Please try new victims and you will see that it will connect. If you still cant connect to a victim after trying few times read the help file and try to find where you are making a mistake and feel free to ask us questions if you still have problems.
If your or your victims PC is being forced to closing after you started PRORAT server or ProConnective this is not PRORAT fault because some kind of worm virus like msblast can infiltrate to PC which doesn’t have security patches. PRORAT will close the Firewall (optional) and this will give a chance to this kind of worms to infiltrate and close systems. To take measures please read the help file and you will see links to download patch files.
If you try to make PRORAT server undetectable to AntiVirus the PRORAT will not connect to the server. If you want a server which is undetectable from AntiVirus you must buy PRORAT SPECIAL EDITION,
If you didn’t try to change server and you still get a connection reject message, possibly the server wasn’t installed properly to the victims PC.

FREE CALL ONLINE

WANNA CALL ONLINE?

You can now make free calls from your pc to any mobile in the world. All you need is a mic with ear phones, a decent internet connection and Yahoo Messenger or Skype Installed.I’m now using this free call method and the great thing is that, this trick can be used to make unlimited call to mobiles all over the world and not limited to United states. It even works to make free local mobile calls in India.

So how do we make a call from pc to mobile phone for free?
Install Yahoo messenger or Skype. In case you don’t have it Google it and download the latest version.
Sign into your yahoo messenger or Skype using your yahoo id and password. Configure your microphone and headset if you have installed a fresh yahoo or skype software
Inside your Yahoo messenger dial +18003733411 and press enter(as shown in figure).

Now a small window pops up like the one shown below.

An operator greets you with a recorded welcome message along with an advertisement and asks you to select one of the Free411 service. Just hear the services options until they say the last one as “Free Call”. When you hear this, don’t press any number on your keyboard and instead SAY “Free call” loudly on your microphone connected to your PC.
After this voice message is detected by their system, they will run a short advertisement of their sponsor and make sure you don’t press any number at this time.
WAIT UNTIL YOU HEAR A BEEP SOUND after the following message “Please dial the phone number country code first, don’t forget to dial 1 for north America”
After you hear this message ,immediately dial the destination number of your choice along with the country code.(e.g. for north America it’s 1 and for India it’s 91)
Your call will get connected and you can talk for 7 minutes continuous for free. When it gets disconnected, repeat the same procedure again. You can make multiple and unlimited calls with this service.
It was never easy to make a free international call like this before.
So what’s the catch?
FREE411 service toll-free number is based in USA. This company gets paid for the advertisements from sponsors.
Are there any limits on the number of call which we can make?
No. There is no limit on the number of free calls which can be made through this system.
So enjoy this trick to make free international and local calls and make sure you don’t abuse the system.

Force Windows 7 to Boot Into Safe Mode Without Using the F8 Key

Force Windows 7 to Boot Into Safe Mode Without Using the F8 Key

So you are reading instructions on some article that tells you to reboot into Safe mode. You ask how you do that, and are told to use the F8 key when the computer boots up. But you just can’t seem to get the F8 key to work… so how do you boot into Safe mode?

There’s an option in the well-known System Configuration utility that will let you force Windows to always boot into Safe mode… until you turn the option off.

Note: While this method is nothing new, I have to give credit to reader Larry for mentioning it in a comment and prompting this article. Thanks, Larry!

Force Windows to Boot into Safe Mode

Open up the start menu search or run box, and type in msconfig and hit the enter key.

Select the Boot tab, and then check the box for “Safe boot” and make sure the radio button below is set to “Minimal”.

Once you hit the OK button you’ll be asked if you want to Restart now or wait until later. Either way, the next boot will take you into safe mode.

Once you restart, you’ll realize that you are in Safe Mode because it not only places that text in the four corners of the screen, but it even opens up the safe mode page from the help file in Windows 7 or Vista.

Now you can work on getting rid of that spyware…

Turn Safe Mode Back Off

Once you are done fixing whatever you were working on, you’ll probably want to turn safe mode off and go back to normal mode. Just open up msconfig the same way as above, and then on the Boot tab you’ll uncheck the “Safe boot” checkbox.

This method especially helps if you need to repeatedly boot into Safe mode.

HOW TO FIX MBR ERROR IN WIN7?

How to Fix MBR Error in Windows 7

If you’re having boot problems on your Windows PC, it’s often helpful to repair the MBR (Master Boot Record) to restore the Windows 7 boot loader—and you can do it easily from the Windows installation disc.

This is generally most useful if you’ve broken something and there’s a boot loader error, or if you have made the mistake of installing an older version of Windows on the same PC that already has Windows 7 which wipes out the boot loader.

Note: If your PC starts booting into Windows but fails, you should probably try using Safe Mode instead.

Boot From the Windows Install Disc

The first thing you’ll need to do is boot off the install disc, and then click through until you see the “Repair your computer” link in the lower left-hand corner.

You’ll need to choose the correct installation of Windows and then click the Next button.

And then you’ll get to the System Recovery Options screen, where you can get to the Command Prompt.

Repairing the Master Boot Record

If you want to restore the master boot record, you can simply type in the following command:

bootrec /fixmbr

You can also write a new boot sector onto the system partition with this command (which is often more useful):

bootrec /fixboot

And of course, if you just use bootrec /? you’ll be able to see all the options.

This is the same way that we 

Replacing the Windows XP Bootloader with Windows 7

If you’ve managed to install XP on the same PC that you already had Windows 7 on, you’ll noticed that you can’t boot into Windows 7 anymore. You can use this command to fix that and restore the Windows 7 bootloader:

bootsect /nt60 all

Depending on the partition that you’ve installed, you might need to substitute the drive letter instead of “all”.

Note: if you want to restore Windows XP back to the menu, you can open up a command prompt in Windows 7 and run this command:

bcdedit /create {ntldr} -d “Windows XP”

Using the Automated Startup Repair

Of course, all this command-line stuff is probably not necessary in most cases. You can usually just use the Startup Repair option from the Recovery menu…

It’ll check for problems and probably fix them. If not, then you can always use the command prompt.

HOW TO CREAT A VIRTUAL HARD DISK?

HOW TO CREAT A VIRTUAL HARD DISK?

Browse to the directory you want the disk to reside, choose the size you want it to be, and select dynamic or a fixed. If you want the disk to expand in size as you add files to it, then pick Dynamically expanding. Check Fixed size if you want a specific size and for it to stay that way.

 

In Disk Management you will see the virtual drive listed as unallocated space.

To begin using it you’ll need to Right-click and select Initialize Disk.

 

In the initialize disk box just keep MBR selected and hit OK.

Create a Volume

The New Simple Volume Wizard starts up and it’s just a matter of completing it.

Choose the amount of space you want to use for the volume.

Assign it a dive letter that is not currently being used.

Format the new volume as NTFS, FAT32, or FAT. Check if you want a quick format and file compression.

The wizard is complete, click on Finish.

If you have AutoPlay enabled it should pop up for you to open up your new virtual hard disk.

It will be listed with the other disks in Disk Management.

Of course you will also see it listen under My Computer.

WHAT IS BITLOCKER ENCRYPTION ?

BITLOCKER ENCRYPTION

Bit Locker In windows 7

The BitLocker Drive Encryption helps you to protect all files stored on the Operating System Drive, on fixed data drives or on removable data drives (such as external hard drives or USB flash drives).

BitLocker encrypts the entire drive. All the Windows system files necessary for startup and logon are also encrypted. You can log on and work with your files normally, but BitLocker can help block hackers from accessing the system files.

When you add new files to a drive that is encrypted with BitLocker, BitLocker encrypts them automatically. If you share encrypted files on the network then they can be normally accessed by the authorized users only.

Hardware requirements for BitLocker Drive Encryption

To use BitLocker Drive Encryption, your computer has to meet certain hardware requirements. These requirements vary depending on the type of drive that you are encrypting. 

Hardware requirements for the drive that Windows is installed on

To encrypt the drive that Windows is installed on (the operating system drive), BitLocker stores its own encryption and decryption key in a hardware device that is separate from your hard disk i.e. either Trusted Platform Module (TPM) or a removable USB Flash Drive.
To turn on BitLocker Drive Encryption on the operating system drive, your computer’s hard disk must:

Have at least two partitions. One partition must include the drive Windows is installed on and must be at least 400 MB. This is the drive that BitLocker will encrypt. The other partition is the active partition, which must remain unencrypted so that the computer can be started. If your computer does not have two partitions, BitLocker will create them for you.

Hardware requirements for data drives

You can use BitLocker to encrypt fixed data drives (such as internal hard drives) and removable data drives (such as external hard drives and USB flash drives). To encrypt a data drive, it must be formatted using either the exFAT, FAT16, FAT32, or NTFS file system and must be at least 128 MB.

How to Stop Your Friend From Copying Data To Pen Drive

If you have something that you want people to see but not to take it with them in their pen drive or if you own an institute where you do not want the student to copy stuff from the computers then this is the perfect solution for you.

Difficulty level: Simple

Follow these simple steps:

Note: to perform this you will have to login as an administrator.
1. Open the run dialog box (use the shortcut win +r)
2. Type in regedit, hit enter, this will open the registry editor .


3. Now navigate to the following address:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
4. If you are a window 7 user,  then you will need to add a new folder here, right click on the pane > new > key and name it StorageDevicePolicies

5.Open the StorageDevicePolicies by clicking on it then right click on the plane >> New > DWord (32 bit)>> rename it  WriteProtect . Modify it’s value to 1 to enable write protect .

RESTART THE SYSTEM FOR  THE CHANGE TO TAKE PLACE.
Now every time anyone will try to copy data to pen drive this image will pop out.

How to remove write protection

Ok,  when you need to take the data from your system for your own,  just change the value of  WriteProtect that you created above, to 0 (ZERO). Now this will get disabled and you can copy data now.

 TIPS

• To make this trick work you have to restart the computer.
• Make sure you have used the correct spelling to rename the key.To avoid any confusion try copying from the page itself.
