We got another Hungry Hacker

hungry-hackersWe are proud to introduce Mr. Dinesh Agarwal, new member of our Hacking Truths community, to you. Mr. Dinesh Agarwal is a PhD student, his major interest obviously is Computer Science. He is an active blogger and owns a bunch of blogs about VoIP services and International Calling. He is interested in bringing communication costs down between users from one end of the world to other end. He has posted more than 50 hacks on his blog Free Calls Hub on how people can make cheap, and even free international calls.

With more than 250 hacks on wide variety of issues Hacking Truths has become a well known name in the hacking community.  We believe that the expertise that Mr. Agarwal brings along will benefit our readers for their communication needs. Mr. Agarwal believes that it is not possible for everyone to look for the best services available that let you communicate with your loved ones. Being away from home and friends, he has been through this phase, therefore he knows how important it is to give people a platform where they could find their best options. Mr. Agarwal has already helped thousands of users from more than 100 countries to save money on their phone bills. We welcome him aboard and hope this partnership will be a prosperous and long lasting one.

If you wonder what kind of posts you should expect from him, let us ask you this question: Are you happy with the current charges you pay for your phone? Or rather, are you happy even when you have to pay charges for your phone? If you are smirking right now, you are no longer wondering about his posts. Stay tuned with us for some great hacks on VoIP telephony. You will love the content, we promise that.

Hacking Tool of the Week #2

If you were trying to delete some files and you get any one of these below warnings from windows then the Hacking Tool of this week is most suited for you.

file-unlocker-windows-softwares

  • Cannot delete file: Access is denied
  • There has been a sharing violation.
  • The source or destination file may be in use.
  • The file is in use by another program or user.
  • Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use.

Toolkit1

Windows File Unlocker

This single-function system utility removes a file’s access restrictions. Unlocker is unobtrusive: it resides in the system tray; an Unlocker command appears in files’ right-click menus.

Description

The application removes file-access restrictions that prevent a user from moving, deleting, or renaming a file. The user right-clicks on a file and selects Unlocker, which displays information regarding the selected file, such as Path Locked, PID, Handle, and Process Path. This program also allows terminating a currently running process. In some cases, files cannot be accessed due to Windows file-access bugs, for which Windows informs the user the file is currently in use–even when it’s not.

Unlocker can effectively bypass this bug’s restrictions; it unlocks or disables whatever is preventing the user to access that file. This tool would be a lot easier to use if it allowed hot keys. Novices to advanced users will find this free application very useful.

Features

  • Close any handle.
  • Kill any process.
  • Unload any Damn DLL. Note: You should be aware of the consequences before doing it.
  • Delete index.dat . ‘index.dat‘ is System File which store your IE Web History
  • Delete, Rename and Move  any file you want without the permission of the owner
  • Best of all. It is a Freeware!

How to Use it?

  1. Simply right click the folder or file and select Unlocker

  2. If the folder or file is locked, a window listing of lockers will appear

  3. Simply click Unlock All and you are done!

Download

You can download this free Utility at http://ccollomb.free.fr/unlocker/unlocker1.8.7.exe

Tools in the Hungry Hacker’s Toolkit Uptill Now:

  • Kon Boot – Resets Windows and Linux Admin Passwords
  • Windows File Unlocker – Removes File-Access Restrictions that prevent a User from Moving, Deleting, or Renaming a File

Is this the Real B’date of hungry-hackers.com?

Well, Some of you might come to know from the DNS records of hungry-hackers.com that the actual date of registration of this domain is somewhere in February then why are we celebrating the anniversary on 1st of September?

The answer to this is quite Simple. Hacking Truths was originally born with blogspot subdomain on 1st september 2007 and finally after it got popular we transfered from blogspot to .com domain. So going by the actual registration date in Blogspot we celebrate the 2nd anniversary of Hacking Truths.

How did Hungry Hacker grow to such a big blog?

The growth of Hacking Truths started from the Day we got a Comment on a Article in the days when we were hosted under blogspot. That Comment changed the life of Hacking Truths. The Comment is as follows:

As you can see this comment does seem like a spam at first and my first reaction to this comment was not to go for it. But I thought of just replying to the e-mail address given in the comment to get some more information.

Finally after having a lot of discussion with Lakshman, the owner of HyperWebEnable.com, I decided to try this program and I found that whatever this comment says it actually what they provide.

The biggest spike in the life of Hacking Truths came when one of articles “Gmail Account Hacking Tool” got to the front page of popular websites like Digg, Slashdot and Stumbleupon. I still remember that day 20th Aug, 2008. Hacking Truths had got its all time high traffic  of 32460 page views in one day which still remains to be unbeaten. After that time Hacking Truths have never looked back and kept on going with a super fast speed.

Few words about My Sponsor?
