    That network may be "unsecured" in the sense that it doesn't require a key, yet secured by allowing only specific MAC's to connect

    Welcome to Windrivers craft_nemic

    All you have to do is ask permission of the owner of the wireless network so s/he can add you to the allowed computers.

    If you don't know who it belongs to, you cannot ask permission. I suppose you could write a letter and copy it a few times and then deliver one to every house within a half mile radius.

    What do you mean by *acke* ?

    I'm guessing the missing letters might be an "H" and a "D", or possibly an "R". Not being able to steal services is such a bummer.

    Hey I was just wondering.... can someone show me how to phish for passwords? I just want to use other peoples logins and accounts. You know just for fun. Also if you can show me how to get CC numbers and social security numbers I'd really appreciate it.

    Nice find NooNoo all I can say after reading that is WOW. I mean that's fairly disturbing. My experience with online gaming companies has shown a higher level security than that by far. SOE (SONY Online Entertainment) requires to get any lost info back that you give your exact e-mail you registered with, the account login (if able to remember), your full name, your date of birth, your address you signed up with, and the original credit card number you started the account with. If you can't do that then they don't give out any info.
    One Script to rule them all.
    One Script to find them.
    One Script to bring them all,
    and clean up after itself.
