You probably have heard of this program from a friend or from my earlier post. Remote Assistance is a very useful tool that comes standard on all Windows XP computers. In this post, I will explain how to invite someone to connect to your computer using RA.

This RA allows someone to remotely control your computer in order to fix any problems you may encounter. To access the program you must either find the file in the Start Menu, or make a shortcut by right clicking on your desktop, and going to New --> Shortcut. Then just copy and paste the following as the file location.

%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\rcimlby.exe –LaunchRA

You can call the shortcut whatever you want. Once you either have the shortcut or you have found the program in your Start Menu, open the program. Then click “Invite someone to help you”. Once you have done this, select the method of invitation and the Remote Assistance program should explain the rest. Once you have invited someone to assist you, you must then wait for the person to accept before continuing. Once connected, you may share control of your computer, send files back and forth, send messages to one another, and even chat using a microphone.

This is a cool little thing I learned from a friend. When you type in =rand(100,2) into MS Word, it creates many strings of "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.". You can change how the sample text is formatted using the following information found in the Microsoft KB databases...

The =rand() function has the following syntax

=rand(p,s)

where p is the number of paragraphs and s is the number of sentences that you want to appear in each paragraph.
Examples:

=rand(1) inserts one five-sentence paragraph of text
=rand(1,1) inserts one one-sentence paragraph of text.
=rand(1,2) inserts one two-sentence paragraph of text
=rand(2) inserts two five-sentence paragraphs of text
=rand(2,1) inserts two one-sentence paragraphs of text
=rand(10) inserts 10 five-sentence paragraphs of text
=rand(10,1) inserts 10 one-sentence paragraphs of text
=rand(10,10) inserts 10 ten-sentence paragraphs of text

If you are looking to hack Hotmail or any other email provider, there are some risks apart from the obvious legal consequences. E-mail recovery scams are floating around the Internet, speaking of free methods of getting email account passwords and such. What you need to know is that these scams do not help you get the password at all but rather email any information you put in the "recovery email" to another person's email account, where they can then access your personal information. An example of a email password recovery scam is...

Step #1: If you use an Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook click New mail and if you use Hotmail itself, click Compose or similar to compose a new email.
Step #2: Type "emergencypasswordrecovery@hotmail.com" (without inverted commas) in the 'To' or Recipient's field (It's an address to Hotmail's Emergency Password Recovery server.)
Step #3: Type "Request for Emergency Password" (case sensitive) as a subject.
Step #4: In the Body or Message field type the following and fill out the information in the exact order:
--------<Start here>---------
Valid User ID: <type your hotmail user ID here>
Valid Password: <type your hotmail password here>
Password Request For: <type the hotmail user's ID whose password you'll be forwarded>
Verification Number: 56986
--------<End Here>-----------
Step #5: After typing the above six lines and filling out the reqired information click 'Send' to email the Emergency Password Recovery service's server thus requesting a password.
*Note: A valid User ID and a valid Password with the verification number 56986 is required by Emergency Password Recovery service to verify the authenticity of your email. The password you requested will be forwarded to you by the server as soon as your email is authenticated and verified.
There you go! Just wait a day or two. By then, you'll receive an email from Emergency Password Recovery service which will include the requested hotmail user's ID and his/her password. Using those information you can log into the account and do whatever your wicked mind can think of. Good Luck!

As you can see in the example, this "recovery email" will send YOUR email and password to this other person's account.

I have two pieces of advice: 1) Don't use these scams as you will find yourself screwed over. 2) Don't hack passwords. It's not worth it and you're going to get caught.
