Hacker's Paradise This month Hairy lists a handy little aid for would be hackers Halloo hackfans. Back again, oh frabjulous joy. There've been a few changes at the Hackery since last time: We've got a new address to send all your wonderful goodies to now, so look in the front of the mag. for details. The not-so-wonderful stuff can still go to the old address though. Rumours of the move being because I needed a nice office with comfortable, padded walls are totally unfounded. Me? Sane? Of course I'm sane. Ha! I'm as sane as a gooseberry. Enough of me, let's see what the stie has brought up in the mailbag. [...] By the way Tom, from the looks of your typing, you need your index and middle fingers transplanted. This doesn't stop us from sending you a wee something though. And next, out of a particularly old mailbag, from Niall Brady of Sligo in Ireland, we have a Disc Search Facility called discfind. This is one of those cunning pieces of code that hackers the likes of me use to find names, passwords, and silly messages on discs. Now, you can do it too, and don't forget to tell me whal you find in there! First of all though, you have to type in the following load of code. Don't worry too much about pinkie crossover, as it is checksummed to the gills. To use the beast, run the program (after saving it!), type |HEX or |ASC followed by these parameters: |HEX,start search on track , end search on track , start on sector |ASC , start search on track , end search on track , start on sector You will then be asked for a string of BYTES in hex or ascii, and off it goes. By the way, it also knows about cunning disc formats, so there is no hiding, unless the messages are actually encrypted. So as you can see what you're doing,and stop what you're doing too, pressing ESC pauses discfind, and pressing ESC twice stops it permanently. Well, here's the code:
