Stupid kid was tunneling through my server to access other places, I recompiled the apps he was using and logged all his network traffic for weeks, collecting accounts and passwords. Then I took over his life.  All his accounts everywhere. Email, IRC,  Adult Friend Finder, you name it, it all belongs to me now.

0×000 – What’s an SSL Encryption :

SSL ( Secure Socket Layer ) is a protocol
that gives encryption for out/coming data
in TCP protocol and its used in serval services
such as web navigation/emails/IM’s/Voip etc…

0×001 – What’s Stunnel :

stunnel is a A GNU program allowing to
encrypt arbitrary TCP connections inside
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).

iPhone Dev-team had announced about Project “Yellowsn0w” iPhone 3G soft Unlock tool and also posted Demo video of Yellowsn0w. As per promise by dev-team Yellowsn0w is now available for download on this New Year’s Eve (a bit late).

Yellowsn0wis the world’s first software unlock for the iPhone 3G. With yellowsn0w you can unlock your iPhone 3G firmware 2.2 and use it with any other carriers apart from AT&T. iPhone dev-team had warned to all iPhone users planning to jailbreak iPhone 3G firmware 2.2 not to upgrade to baseband 02.28.0 as Yellowsn0w will only work with iPhone 3G Firmware 2.2 with baseband 2.11.07.

But now you can safely ignore that warning as Dev-Team has managed to get yellowsn0w to work with iPhone 3G baseband 02.28.0, So no need to worry if you have already upgraded your iPhone 3G 2.2 with baseband 02.28

Recent updated message on this post, it’s clear that the soft unlock (yellowsn0w) will now be only for baseband 02.28.0 (the most recent baseband). Hence you need to upgrade and jailbreak your iPhone 3G with firmware 2.2 baseband 02.28.0 to use yellowsn0w.
How to Upgrade to iPhone 3G Firmware 2.2 with baseband 02.28.0

1. Download iPhone 3g Firmware 2.2

2. Jailbreak iPhone 3G Firmware 2.2 Using QuickPWN 2.2 and add Cydia/Installer.Quick Points About Yellowsn0w iPhone 3G Unlock soft Tool

- This unlock software works with the latest baseband only so jailbreak using QuickPWN or PwnageTool and upgrade to the latest version which is 02.28 BB.

- This application is launched on boot whenever there is a baseband reset and it’s small and unobtrusive.

- This application is a non-commercial application so it cannot be used by third-party companies or resold by anyone.

Please Note: The DevTeam says that once you are done installing yellowsn0w through Cydia go back to the main menu on Cydia and restart your iPhone with the 3rd party SIM installed. Wait for the slide to unlock screen, and then wait 10-15 seconds. If you don’t see your carrier name pop up you must remove your SIM, insert it again, and wait 10 seconds. (The DevTeam plans on elimintating this step)

This despite running in a Windows 7-based virtual machine that we estimate to be 12.1% slower overall than a Vista-based VM hosted by the same environment.

These are the initial findings of Betanews’ experiments in how the architecture of Windows 7 may or may not influence the performance of major Web browsers. We wanted to see whether Win7 made browsers faster or slower, and doing that meant hosting browsers in virtual environments whose relative speeds with respect to one another could be normalized.

As we discovered, Windows 7 RC Build 7100 runs perceptibly slower on a Virtual PC 2007 platform on XP SP3, than Vista SP2. This does not mean Windows 7 is a slower operating system, but rather that it behaves more slowly in this particular virtualized environment, which after all was designed for Vista. So to make our test fair, we needed to estimate just how much slower our Win7 environment was from Vista, and factor out that difference.

Up to now, we’ve been comparing relative browser performance in Vista using a relatively slow browser to judge against: IE7. We’ve used IE7 as our gauge of how much more readily other browsers blow right past it in the performance department, including IE8. But we don’t want to install IE7 on Win7 — although it’s technically feasible, doing so would pollute the operating system for running Win8 and other applications. So we needed a new, slow browser that we could rely upon to stand still for us, relatively speaking.

Our first choice was Firefox 1.5, but we learned it had difficulty running in Win7 at all. We ended up using Firefox 2.0.13, not quite the final build of that series of Mozilla’s browser. Our aim was to use this browser as a fair gauge of how much slower our Win7 environment was than Vista. This way, we could equalize our indexes, which are based on IE7 — we can’t run IE7 on Win7, but we can estimate how much slower IE7 would be if we could, by measuring how much slower Firefox 2.0.13 is. Though the average speed difference is 12.1% in favor of the Vista VM, for our browser benchmarks, we created differentials for each heat in the competition, to more accurately account for environmental factors between the two environments.

In the Vista VM alone, Firefox 2.0.13 puts in a performance index of 2.49, meaning it performs 249% as well as IE7 in the same environment. Compare that to Firefox 3.0.10′s index score of 5.19 in recent Betanews tests in the Vista VM.

Factoring out the speed differentials, we can reliably say that IE8 gives us a performance index of 2.69 in the Win7 VM versus 2.19 in the Vista VM. Meanwhile, Firefox 3.0.10 scores a 6.10 normalized index score in the Win7 VM versus 5.19 in the Vista VM.

The news is not all good for Mozilla, however. Under the same test conditions, Firefox 3.5 Beta 4 slows down in Win7, but only by about 2.5%, scoring a 10.18 normalized index score in the Win7 VM versus 10.44 in the Vista VM. So from this angle, it appears that Windows 7 helps close the gap between Mozilla’s production browser and its experimental browser. We’re interested to find out whether similar discoveries await us with regard to Google Chrome, and whether Win7 will play nicely with Apple’s Safari for Windows. Those results are still forthcoming.

The best-I-can-do-from-a-streaming-video screencaps above comes from Bill Veghte’s quick demonstration of Windows 7 in which he launched 3 Office applications: Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook.

Compared to the screenshots of Outlook 2010 that were leaked to ZDNet’s iGeneration a month ago, not much has changed, but the effects of a new fade-to-Aero gradient in the header bar is much more obvious. In terms of the actual applications, Excel does not seem to have changed at all whereas Powerpoint has a new “Transitions” tab possibly indicating improved effects and animations behaviors. Outlook’s changes are pretty self explanatory. Each application’s “Ribbon button” is also colored differently, allowing easy differentiation between the applications.

Having said all that, I have no idea what’s going on with “Office 2010 The Movie“. A viral campaign for business applications? Sure, bring it on.
