how to break window password from keyboard by any short cut keys???
|
|

1. You can't.
2. It's illegal.

Yes, because Microsoft put in there a keyboard shortcut that breaks passwords, can you imagine what kind of security hole that would be?
I think you are looking in the wrong place, we will not help you break into computers. If you are trying to recover your own windows password, its damn near impossible and even Microsoft doesn't have a procedure for this. Password encryption is one-way, meaning once you set a password it can never be decrypted.

So I shouldn't tell him about this[^].

That resets the password, it doesn't "break" it. My point is still valid, reversing the encrypted data back to the password is damn near impossible. I also dare you to try it on a system that has encrypted folders, you'll never recover the data...
I've tried almost every "recovery" tool out there and none of them worked. The reset tools work (provided you don't have encrypted folders), but even they cause issues on some systems with profile duplication.

If you have genuinely forgot your password try googling 'password recovery tools' there a few.
not as hard as some make this out to be.

There are all kinds of ways of breaking windows passwords but I am not going to tell you them.

I have some device simulation framework code in vb.net which I have uploaded here: https://kinectmultipoint.codeplex.com/releases/view/107451[^]
Does anyone in here know enough to figure out what's wrong with the code? (In vbscript it works just fine that's why iam scratching my head). I have tried creating com objects before in vb.net. My best guess is I am using a wrong type or class somewhere in code.

In a preemptive environment, does a single CPU instruction execute atomically, even if it uses more than one clock cycle?
Or can an instruction be preempted during its second of, say, three clock cycles?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
|
|
|
|
|
As far as I know it should execute completely to preempt. If the instruction can be halted in the middle of the process I am pretty sure it will need to be considered as not being executed at all (as the process of changing from one process to another will copy all the registers, including the stack pointer).
So, even if at the hardware level it may be interrupter without completing, I am sure we will never see partial values lost (but I really believe the interrupt itself will only work at the next instruction).
|
|
|
|
|
I just searched and this link gives a good information: http://www.sltf.com/articles/pein/pein9505.htm[^]
There is a part that says this: "Interrupt processing has some basic requirements from the CPU. Before it can respond to an interrupt, the processor must wait for an "interruptible" state in its processing. For example, if the processor's writing to memory, it must wait until the write is done before processing the interrupt."
So, it will never interrupt in the middle of a instruction. The instruction itself is always atomic.
|

Ah, I see. Thank you for that information.

Sorry for the late reply, but I had to chime in here:
It is a common misunderstanding, unless an instruction is designed to be atomic (like x86 CMPXCHG or 680x0 TAS), an instruction can be interrupted mid-execution (e.g. INC [mem] can be interrupted after the read and before the write of the incremented value. This moment would be considered interruptible even tough the operation is not completed). If you need guaranteed atomic operation, you have to either use an instruction that is designed as atomic or you have to implement an access control mechanism that is based on these atomic operation around your non-atomic operations. Semaphores etc. are based on these guaranteed atomic operations to guard complex, i.e. non-atomic, operations.
On a side note, this concept becomes even worse when executing with multiple CPUs or cores where several instructions are executing simultaneously and they can interfere with each other even without preemption. In this situation atomically-designed operations still guarantee atomic execution while others are becoming indeterministic as they are executed in parallel.

how do i interface with the gprs modem using j2me without using a pc...i want to use it to send a sms through the gprs modem in a home security system to a predefined mobile number...pls help me regarding this...
|
|
|
|
|
You will need an interface to the modem, normally serial (if it is uart based) or if USB some way to handle the two bulk and one interrupt pipes it will have.
You need to do this because you need to send (most likely) AT commands to it to connect it, enter a PIN, and send the SMS.
And sending an SMS is a right POTA with AT commands. But now you know you can google 'SMS AT commands' and see what you find.

And having given you the information you need to do this you cant even reply and say thanks.
Dear oh dear.
You should have tried learning to write SW bafore the internet existed. You had to actually work things out yourself rather than getting other people to do it for you.

Hello, I need help of friends or community experts with this problem:
We have about 100 PCs of the same brand and model manufactured in 2010. I need to change in all these PCs, periodically and manually, the system and user passwords through the BIOS and would like to automate this procedure through a software and had the following idea:
The motherboard manufacturer sent me a program to read and write the CMOS. I starts with the setting up these passwords on a single PC, saving all your content to a file and after with this program, I write de CMOS to the others machines. Detail: this program is to be used with a boot disk with DOS.
As I would like to carry this procedure through the central server, copying the file with new CMOS data to a specific folder existent on all machines. In each PC there is a process running on Windows XP SP3 that as soon as received the file, make the reading the contents, writing the new passwords in its CMOS, deletes the file from the folder and restarts yourself. The theory should work, but not, inclusive on the same machine where I created the file. What happens is that every time I update the CMOS, the changed settings are retained, but the passwords always come back clean, i.e. without any protection to access to BIOS.
Now I'm basing my work on one program called CmosPwd which can be found on the site www.cgsecurity.org, but no options works properly on the motherboard that we have. Our platform apparently uses the Award BIOS 6.00 PG as base to these chinese mother boards. Tried new contact with the manufacturer, but they do not provide a map of the structure of the CMOS. I discovered that, comparing the various files, passwords are not written in ASCII mode only 5 bytes at offset 0x40, that I believe to be your CRC, as showed below:

Has anyone had a problem like this and got a simple and cheap solution, or would have any hint to solution this? I appreciate some kind of help.
Thanks so much,

Any technical problem is a challenge, but though I don't have an answer in this case, I'm sure you'll appreciate that you probably won't get one (here) when your aim is to remotely change passwords.

Contact the manufacturer of the machines. They'll usually have a BIOS command line tool that can import/export the contents or provide some other method for what you're doing.
You're not going to get code to do this here.
