I have to admit. I am a script kiddie.

I want to move on because programs such as Sub7 are not working anymore for some reason. I want to learn how to hack. I know nothing. Nothing at all. All i want to do is be able to go into someone's computer and mess around with their files for fun. Anyone out there?

Oh dear, oh dear.

Remember that hacking is not simply about breaking things. If you are going to ask questions or behave in a manner that brings down the good name of hacking, this is the wrong place for you. If you are willing to learn, and display some self-motivation, you will find a great crowd here.

I'll also point you to the NewbieHQ FAQ:

...and particularily these threads:

http://www.binrev.co...showtopic=26076 <-- was posted a few days ago.

Please let there be no flaming, or condescending talk, in this thread.

PS. Changed thread title from "Question" to "Want to learn how to hack."

I am much like you. Though, I only want to get my mates pcs for a laugh. Can somebody explain a simple way to acess somones files. On the assumption that:-
I have their ip.
I dont know what ports are firewalled.

[UTS_HOST]

all i will add is, if you want to learn computers for that, there isn't many that will help you. if you change it and say i want to learn as much as possible about computer security, your'll get alot more help.

anyways, your going to have to do alot of reading, and messing around with computers you own to get a grasp of it.

as if this hasnt been asked enough.

step 1. read read read read read (http://textfiles.com although some dated material)
step 2. read past posts, kinda fits under step 1.
step 3. break into boxes you own for learning, dont break into your friends. that only leads to broken friendships or worse, jail.

Personally I think this type of attitude will never go far in any field. (I want to learn something just to fuck someone up and laugh) While I also love pranking people and having a good laugh with the use of hacking/computers/SE'ing/etc Knowledge...thats not my primary reason.

I think if you are *serious* about learning to hack, you should focus on how things work, again thats done by learning as much as possible and then applying that knowledge (read, read, read...oh..and read) Theres literally an infinite number of resources, so even if your broke as hell like myself, there are no excuses. Set up a old crap computer on your network and start attacking like crazy..(not physically you know )

Anyway, Once you *really* learn about how things work behind the scenes, I think then its all good and fun to mess with people (in a non-fucked up way.) for personal enjoyment

Some books I would suggest: "Art of Exploitation", "TCP/IP Fundamentals" and "Hacking for Dummies", most of which are available on p2p. Enjoy

Script Kiddies, Script Kiddies...
You want the results, you'll get insults...

You think you're what you're not
I can see what you see not.

Helping you to "hack" is nobody's will
Because you lack what we call a skill

[UNDERTAKER]

its just like anything. A weapon. A self defense art.

you need to learn respect for it. Can't just abuse it.

But get some books out on how to program

well port scan it and find out. http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ <-- i think is the right url

then find a vulnerability on a service running on an open port you found with ^ nmap, and write an exploit for it, or find an exploit somewhere like security focus and compile that one. or you can go the easier way and just get him to run some trojan or something. some of the more common ones: sub 7, bo2k. but they arent hard to write in visual basic (or so i hear).

oh i forgot to mention metasploit

I have already flicked through some books, but havent bought them because they are SO confusing. Im not really bad with computers, but would prefer that everything was made simpler. Ever Hacking for Dummies doesnt make sense after the second page. All the books dont explain enough and move far too quickly

[qwertyman66]

The thing is, you need to understand something about programming, hardware and computers in general before you stand a chance with properly understanding hacking. The books you see are an ok start, but you still need to think. They don't give you a step by step guide on how to pwn, they simply try to show you how to understand. You can't just flick through them, you must be prepared to think about them and look up things that need looking up.

Thanks for these info, you gave us right direction... but then is there any link tutorial in writing an exploit?
