Re: How To Login From an Internet Cafe Without Worrying About Keyloggers

Yohan Yukiya 사요한 謝雪矢 — Mon, 27 Nov 2006 02:44:42 -0000

Will not work if the person who installed the keylogger is using a more sophisticated keylogger application.

I saw a couple of freeware and shareware keylogger apps that can track everything.

The simplest of these apps, I was able to figure out the password typed in 30 mins after reading the log file. One good way is to simply duplicate the process as is written in the log file.

Now it is up to the person if s/he will be patient enough to decode the numerous random and not random clicks, tabs, typing, etc.

Simply, keyloggers will log where and when you clicked and/or tabbed where and when, even if you clicked on another browser window, or tabbed to another browser-tab. If you scroll, typed in notepad, typed in command line, run, etc.

Oh, basically, there is really no other way to be secured in a public terminal unless you can do a restore of the system from it's very first state when it was first booted after a fresh reformat and installation.

That's why I only trust a very few iCafes in the Metro Manila, and I don't log in sensitive stuff at terminals that I can easily install and edit the startup system.

Btw, I forgot to mention. Don't trust too much on "Copy & Paste". There are keylogger applications than can log what you copied from what window, what site, when, and the exact order of your copy and pasting, as well as which window, tab, application, mouse move, clicks, etc. etc.

These apps are out there, these keylogger people just have to be persistent to find these apps we tested. They are few, but once you have it, keylogger galore. Freeware and Shareware.

Now for a serious person, there are professional grade keyloggers that will do much more than that, and sadly, these pro-keylogger apps can be easily cracked, so well... ;) Be-friend a public terminal owner (iCafe owner that is), like what I do, so you'll gain access to its restore system (if they use one), or you'll be allowed to touch and make changes to their whole system (provided you know where to look for and what stuff needs to be checked).

It's hard. But so far, I haven't been victimized by keyloggers.

Those are what I can share ^_^

I agree @Sonnie.

But I like to add. There are some cases wherein the boss professionally separates work and personal relationships with their subordinates, but the subordinate is him/herself a "manggagamit ng tao", can I use the word biatch? But because of their boss-subordinate relationship "inside" the office or during work, she is qualified to file a case against his/her boss, the first case a corporate office will honor is sexual harassment.

It's really unfair the way I see it, and I think that's one reason why everyone who's into it are keeping quiet. Moreover, it's taboo to talk about it in our society.

my thoughts.

Then comes next is Safari 3, then Firefox 2.

Haven't tested Konqueror, IE7, and IE6. And can't wait to test Opera 9.5.

Re: How we’ll lay out websites in 2016

Yohan Yukiya 사요한 謝雪矢 — Tue, 04 Sep 2007 09:43:10 -0000

2016? Only browsers left at that time are Safari, Opera, and Mozilla Firefox. IE? It will still be there as "built-in core" of Windows OS, but totally ignored.

No one will use a non-conforming browser like IE when most websites by 2016 are using most (X)HTML and CSS stuff, like what, (X)HTML 7 and CSS3.something?

We all know IE will always be left behind. All IE users will be forced to use a different browser just so they can surf the internet or read their emails.

2016. If IE will not be fixed, it will long be a webdeveloper's forgotten nightmare.

It's shadow effect I think, now that you mentioned it, it is hard to read when you focus on those texts.

Anyway, let me guess, that browser is Internet Explorer? The wayward and rebellious browser? lawlz.

Opera 9.5 out-do Safari 3.

Personally, I am ranking it as Opera 9.5 > Safari 3 > FF3 (> FF2)
IE? What's that?

Back to topic:

I agree that there should be Acid3, and add HTML5 as well.

Still on testing mode myself. This second day of testing, it doesn't seem to be working as advertised.

And their video introduction actually gives me more doubt than entice me.. but, just a few more days... we'll see if it really works.

But just like you, it is not something I will keep even if it works.

Filipino bloggers have started BlogRush-remove, just check this link: http://www.yugatech.com/blo... (where I found your blog, a commenter posted you there).

As for me, I have my doubts since landing on it. Then "more" doubts after watching the video. And more not-so-good views as time goes-by, and this is just my 2nd day at it.

The more I read about reactions to BlogRush, the more my suspicions are confirmed, but, I want to have my own experience and decision, so I'll give it a few more days... regardless, if it works or not, it is not for me, will remove it anyway. It isn't something worth keeping in the long-run.

But, BlogRush is cool, though you confirmed one of my suspicions - more crap.

Re: Have You Been To Baywalk Lately?

Yohan Yukiya 사요한 謝雪矢 — Sat, 22 Sep 2007 05:27:53 -0000

Let us not jump to conclusions and brand this mayor and that mayor as simply "good or evil", especially when we are not voters of the particular place, in this case, the City of Manila.

First, the Manilenos voted for Lim, we don't care how and why they voted for him, but they voted for him. That is their choice.

Secondly, Philippine Politics is always "STOP all Previous and Current Projects of my predecessor at-all-costs!!" From the President down to the lowest position in the government. It's been like that, and will always be like that if other people are not given the chance - YOU, the new generation.

Thirdly, Lim have always been anti-drug and anti-crime, that is his expertise, that is his line-of-work. While Atienza is for the beautification of the City of Manila, and related projects.

Each government official have their own expertise and goals. And as I mentioned in #2, they will stop all previous and current projects of their predecessors just because it doesn't agree with their own goals and it is not their expertise.

Fourth, Baywalk was already deterioting even during the time of Atienza, the process just went faster after the change of leadership.

Finally, for the Philippine politics to change, the new generation must stop rallying on the streets and start planning on entering REAL politics. Don't have money? Find a solution.

If the new generation will keep on going to the streets, then we will never have any other options but to vote the "oldies" and the "sons and daughters of the oldies". That is what's lacking, the "oldies" and the "sons and daughters of the oldies" are doing their best to keep the new generation dubbed as "The Kinabukasan ng Bayan" to the streets.

We want to be activists? Online or offline? We have a lot of things to say against the oldies and their dynasties? Let's support and encourage the new generation in terms of monay and morale, so they can slowly, one-by-one, win seats.

One seat for the new generation guarded by the concerned Pinoys like you and me, is one giant step to cleaning and improving our politics.

"Kabataan, kinabukasan ng bayan", where are they? In the streets rallying or there working abroad.

Leave the oldies - they are the "past". Let's look into the future and live in the present.

Re: Latest updates to CSS 3 modules

Yohan Yukiya 사요한 謝雪矢 — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 02:44:26 -0000

Personally, MSIE is a loss cause. As much as the reality of IE's dominance is concerned, MS is just hampering the development of the technologies and the web with their in-ability to accept the reality that the Internet doesn't revolve around them anymore.

OOXML vs ODF and the likes.. MS will do everything it can to stop anyone from taking the center seat from them.

So, if we really want to move on towards the future, there is no other option for us but to forget about MSIE. It will stay as it is today and in the past because they want to be the one dictating web-standards - which is not the case as we all know.

Yes, MSIE is the dominant browser, but if we more and more sites starts to ignore IE, those MSIE loyals will sooner or later move to a better browser. Now if they really do not want to touch any other browser but IE, then they have to live with the reality that there are far less sites they can open - by that time.

That's just my opinion. Right now, we can still develop for MSIE because the gap is still tolerable, sooner it won't be the case. We will have to choose. Embrace the future technology and developments and forget IE ever existed, or keep designing for IE and give more headaches to ourselves?

My opinion and PoV..

Re: Latest updates to CSS 3 modules

Yohan Yukiya 사요한 謝雪矢 — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 11:18:58 -0000

It's not really 'punishing' the users of MSIE, but rather showing them its limitations. MS is not willing to improve its IE browser, if they want to stay that way, then we show their users they will see websites better under other browsers.

The reason why MSIE is stubborn is because most websites or web developers take their time to cater to MSIE, yes it is the dominant browser, but one reason that it is the dominant browser is because the 'casual' users do not have a reason to switch.

It's giving them a reason to switch, it is showing them the difference. Right now, it is impossible because the gap is not that great or obvious, but one day it will. And we still yet to see if the MSIE 7 team will really be going to patch web-standards as they promised.

See, it is not making your websites not viewable to IE, but rather developing for IE according to what it provides - less than web-standard. Then for web-standard compliant browsers, we develop to its full extent. Right now, many websites develop "based" on IE. With IE's limitations, all other compliant browsers are wasted, their being compliant is not used to its full extent - just because we need to put IE users as top priority.

It should be the other way around. Hence, MS sticks to their non-compliance, they see us basing our sites on their browser.

"I will develop for IE coz its the dominant browser. IE is non-compliant, so if I develop based on IE, it will look fine on compliant browsers." type of attitude.

Im not saying all are like that, but most are. Should be "I'll use what compliant browsers can do, and let it show gracefully for IE." it's like "MSIE: Encourage the use of ActiveX so they'll stick with IE" - let's reverse that. They can still enjoy the website, but they'll have more enjoyable experience on a compliant browser. That's the idea.

Just an opinion.

Just as I've said here in css3.info before (some article I commented at). Finally some took the step. We need to take action and not just sit there and 'wish' that IE will stop being stubborn.

I'll pray that the EU will listen. IE must be as compliant as any other browsers out there. They're too far behind, and because they hold the majority share of the browser space, they are putting us web developers still in the past, because we have to most-of-the-time make our sites compatible with IE.

Now if they want to be stubborn, then they should stop shipping Windows with IE as the (1) default browser; and (2) the only browser.

That way, other browsers will have a chance to become the dominant browser, and so when the time comes, we can completely ignore the stubborn IE browser.

Of course, MS will do that, who would give up his dominance? So it's up to the EU now.
We all know that IE6 and IE7 are both far in the bottom list of browsers when it comes to compliancy with the web-standards. Limiting everyone in the process.....

@Tim: I don't think telling the "virtues" of the newer versions will appease the fears of the non-Ubuntu users who are mostly people who never tried GNU/Linux or was discouraged to go back because of the how hard it is setup with the distro they tried before. (And they are not aware that there are many distros to begin with.)

@Verdican: If I remember correctly, Compiz and Beryl are actually two independent group. Compiz is still alive, but some of its supporters and Beryl joined together and created Compiz-Beryl. Which was later renamed to Compiz-Fusion their current name (dropping the Beryl project). So there is "Compiz" and there is "Compiz-Fusion". I use Compiz-Fusion because it is more featured and most updated than Compiz.
