Some people have commented that “Barry is doing to much partying lately”….

Its not true, the reason for this perception is my new rule of thumb
that i bring my camera everywhere i go and of course publish the pictures!

Here is my latest Research Paper (no, Mum its not a newspaper) on the Mifare Classic Attack.

Thing of the week: Veetle

6452_112969369726_64262234726_2141946_7622764_nMy previous love of TVU Player evaporated when i discovered that the channels were not that good. BBC just disappeared. :( A much better and cleaner solution is Veetle.
Its a website were anyone can publish streams of information such as TV in HD!!!! Today i watched Ireland beat Wales in superb quality…. All that is needed is a plugin for IE.

Getting around Spotify

Unfortunately, does not work anymore! :( I think UltraVPN has moved to the US!

tb-logo-613x127-2010-01-30To use my favorite music player i need to log into the service from France, Sweden etc, one of the places that it is available. The Netherlands is not one of these places!! So arrangements need to made to make Spotify think that i am in France!
This is my new permanent solution for my Mac, but its also applicable to Windows. https://www.ultravpn.fr/ It is a free VPN that gives its users a French IP address - just what i want. In the support pages – Here- i was given the necessary files – so that i dont have to download the executable (.dmg/.exe file) from UltraVPN. Dont forget to register for free @ ultraVPN!
Next i downloaded the open source VPN software Tunnelblick hosted by Google and put ca.crt client.opvn into ~/Library/openvpn folder.
Try connect to “client” using the UltraVPN credentials and login to Spotify and your done! Of course this only needs to be done once (5 minutes) every 2 weeks… Spotify thinks im on holidays dont you know!

More JDownloader

Just when i thought JDownloader couldn’t get any better – i discover a new feature. Automated Youtube downloading.

This may seem like an old or stupid feature to some but its very useful in some situations. My polish friend is a music addict that always wants music. This person always uses Youtube to source music – dont ask me why! Now music can be easily obtained using this.

Simply start JDownloader, and then copy the Youtube URL, it will grab all the info it needs and ask if you need it the video or audio. Go crazy – copy loads of Youtube videos – JDownloader can handle it!!!!!

Downloading Stuff!!

I really prefer the method i use over other methods people talk about, like Bittorrent or Limewire. To me, Rapidshare is unbeatable!

What youll need:

For Example,  How to download Avatar Trailer.

Log (Make a new User), Movies and Search!!1. In Warez-BB.org make a account. Its simple – just click login and make a new account.

Search for whatever you want!2. After signing in, click the search button – to get what you want. In this case the Avatar Trailer.

List of Results3. Choose an item with [RS.com] at the start of the sentence.

jDownloader!4. Open jDownloader. Premium -> Premium Setting -> Add Account

Copy and Paste the Rapidshare Link5. Once jDownloader is on, copying the link will make jDownloader automatically grab that link and check if its available.

Press Continue6. After jDownloader is setup properly simply press the continue button to get the fastest possible download…

Eircom WEP Cracking

This is actually quite an old story, but the fact that it is still used these days makes it at the very least a disgrace.

By default, Eircom’s WEP key (Simply put : Wireless Internet Password) for customers is based on the SSID – a publicly available piece of information – on all router in home and businesses in Ireland. Eircom of course, recommends that customers change this password but many customers dont have the expertise to do so.

Someone has reverse engineered the algorithm Eircom has used to make these keys. Click Here is use this algorithm. Its pretty simple actually. While reusing a laptop, an Eircom XXXX XXXX number will come up from a choice of wireless networks.

For Example, Eircom 1234 1234 gives the default WEP key for that customer as WEP Key: F23412CBD536AE5686FDA20EF6. Simple!
