INTRODUCTION TO AUTOHACKER:
The AutoHacker has been legendary in select circles. But its also somewhat of a misnomer. In its original form it's not really "automatic". Nor does it "hack". It may be more accurately described as a "cache reader". But, by whatever name it goes by, it's proved to be an invaluable tool over the past year.
The AutoHack takes advantof a Sidebar bug in the browser. It seems to randomly snag snippets of code from the browser's cache. This code need not be page code, though it can be. Often the snippets of data revealed are from in Browser activity we normally would never see. For the first time the AutoHacker allows us to peer into these hidden processes.
The AutoHacker has been responsible for many of the more interesting discoveries this past year. For example:
The AutoHacker even brings up activity from other users accounts on our box! Often you'll get to see part of letters written or read. It can also bring up what appears to be Alt-Key gibberish. Usually this is merely a gif's code made visible. Often you'll get the thumbnail gif code for the AutoHacker itself.
Just what code the AutoHack will dig up is pretty much random chance. In fact, at times you may get nothing! At other times you may get repeats of data. Whether this repeat cycle matches the limit found on browser history tools has not ben studied.
The only consistant feature is
that the codes you get were involved in some recent Browser activity. Otherwise the results are not just random, they may be jumbled with snippets of other codes. For example, the WTV-SETUP:/GET-FROM-SERVER code, was first found
using the AutoHacker... but it had to be assembled like a jigsaw puzzle over time from
several sources. Now we know we can just access this list at WTV-SETUP:/GET
Once you have an AutoHacker successfully loaded onto your HP, it's best to have it on an F-KEY. In this way you can instantly access it should you think there's some process you want to study. Say you want to look into the Login Sequence codes... you might want to do so as soon as you get to your WTV homepage. This is NOT to say the AutoHacker will be able to look back at a complete record of the Login-In Sequence... nor that any codes you get will be complete. Sometimes trying to make sense of what you get will be time-consuming and frustrating. A quick look at some of my old posts Login Sequence demonstrates how tenous making deductive connections can be.
Another problem with the AutoHacker is that the results can NOT be C&Ped.... at least not yet. If someone can find a way to accomplish this, great! In the meantime, have a notepad handy or keep your VCR running. If you use a VCR be sure to set the recording speed for SP and have the TEXT settings set for large. In this way you will be able to send high-quality Vid-caps of code.
While the AutoHacker can be addicting in its own right, there are techniques to maximize your chances of finding something new and interesting. I jokingly call it "stressing the box". This can involve trying a download, using poweroff codes, changing dialups, some unusual activity just to see if it brings up anything new.
EVENTS SEQUENCE: As was stated, the code you get is random. But there is at least one clue as to its sequence. If you look at many URLs there will be something added: XX.text. The XX is a HEX code which seems to indicate the order in which events occured. The first would be 1.text, 2.text etc... until it went HEX.... a.text, b.text on to f.text. At that point it'd be 11.text... or whatever. Thumbnails also seem to be assigned a sequence code.
For reasons unknown, this code is both deceptively simple yet difficult to use. In the first category there seems so little to the AutoHack code it's difficult to imagine it does anything! As for being difficult, there are some spaces at the end of the code that are crucial to its operation. Why? Who knows.
To grab the code just activate the cursor in the
form box below and C&P whatever's inside. Then transfer that to your own HP.
