On Someone's Wireless Network

[simons]

With internet, aswell how do i find out who owns it, and tell them about it.

Its ADSL speed internet so i guess that they have a wireless router connected to ADSL line.

put info and make a text file called URGENT YOU READ.txt and put it on their desktop
put a new copy of it each day, up on their desktop until they notice it - and fix..(you'll know they've fixed when you cant get in anymore)

Try netsending him.

Go into command prompt and type net send <his pc name here> any message can be typed now

Just replace <his pc name here> with his pc name obviously but don't include the < and >. Then just type any message after his pc name.

If it fails he probably has the messenger service disabled, SP2 has this disabled by default, so you might too.

To enable messenging service on your PC, go to the run box and type services.msc
Find the messenger service and start it.

Well just send "YUZ PC HAS BEEN P@WNED AND HACkZORED !!!!" to his printer.
After a few pages he might get the idea.

You sure it's not a honeypot?

I'm sure dorris will have a sniff in that area

 

[slimothy]

dont tell him, its that simple, if you're starving and find some idiot with wireless bread, you dont tell him, you eat till you're fat

 

[simons]

shame dude imagine if that was you they were doing it to.

BTW what is a honeypot?

 

[reech]

'honeypots' are often used by security experts or simply vengeful sysadmins - be careful out there... you never know what you're messing with!

yeah, I know all about it, its somewhere in the vicinity of the lonehill shops, I've also found lonehill_2 and _3 , both the others are secure...ish , which leaves me with a few questions, obviously its the same project being run, yet 1 is wide open.
also, where is lonehill_1?
what is this project and y do I not know about it.
It almost looks like lonehill has its own private wisp popping up, but 3 months after the AP's have sprun up, I haven't recieved any junkmail.
