Well here's the thing. I have a friend(hot chick ;)) that is being harassed by a guy using netbus so he's probably a newb. anyways he uses XP and I was wondering where I could read up on XP exploits to get him back and play the knight in shining armor role :P~
Try www.securityfocus.com exploit database.
Maybe she will be nice enough to come visit you in jail? :D
If you don't know what you're doing, I wouldn't recommend doing that...No offense.
How to be the Knight in shining armor:
Introduce your lady friend to a free Virus Scan and a nice free simple Firewall . Throw in free Spyware Removal , and she'll be yours!

I guess my first question would be....how do you know he's using WinXP in the first place?
My second question would be...could you not come up with a better story than that? I mean come on, at least try something like - "I'm working on a research paper about exploits.................." That'd be a little better than your story...
Geez... glad it's Friday...
But if this story is legit, then follow Cross's advice - doubt it'll produce certain desired results, but hey, her pc would be better protected!
Hi-
Tell your friend to get a anti virus - House call doesnt give you real time protection, but it does help if you scan from it once in awhile. Alot of people here would reccomend AVG free edition -
Click
And get a software firewall too - theres alot of freeware firewalls crawling out there, Zonealarm is easy to use.
Make sure your friend has both of these updated regularly.
Make sure she has her OS updated to, go to start, all programs, windows update and get all the critical updates.
If this person knows how to use a trojan, he probably knows what a firewall and antivirus is too. You can report him to his ISP though.Quote:

How do you know she got netbus? And how do you know the guy is using xp?
Anyway, hacking back is stupid.. Just find his IP and the time he was logged on the Net and report him to his ISP. If you do that correctly he could lose his connection.
That's cute but everyone always pipes in with that and its a little far fetched.Quote:
If they threw everyone that did a prank on someones home pc in jail, we would need to turn the dakotas into a national human zoo.
I agree this is pretty lame, if you have enough access to the guys computer to know his OS and IP, why don't you just cut his mouse cable or something. Forget about the exploits, even if you were lucky enough to stumble onto a remote shell on his box, you wouldn't have a clue what to do with it.
you could lie to her
that might work
If you have to ask, don't try, he'll probably make a fool of you. Instead lock her PC down and then kick his ass. Although most women won't admint it openly, a man that can open up a can of whup ass turns them on, especially if they're the reason for the can being opened
Well Knight's in shining armour in midevil times would be manhandleing this jester.
1) Lock down her windows box.Turn off uneeded services. www.BLKviper.com
2) Take her to your house an scan her box with NMAP. (dont be a freaking geek aKA doogie howser)
3) Ask her if you can be her network ADMIN
4) Report the IP to his ISP and say ByeBye to his brodband connection. www.DNSstuff.com
I'd have to agree with everyone on this one. I mean, I'm all for hacking a computer that you own (not "own" as in it's your becaused you hacked it). That's how you learn how exploits work, find security holes, and increase your proficiency at installing your OS!
But hacking someone elses stuff, without their (written...always get it in writing!) permission is just plain irresponsible. As other's have said in the past, Don't ask us to tell you how to hack, especially if it isn't yours.
The only armor you need to be concerned with right now is a firewall, and IDS, some anti-spyware, etc...just like everyone else said.
Just because you think it's a script kiddie doesn't mean it is one. Even an accomplished hacker will use a kiddie tool if they are bored enough! I 've even seen some use them during the initial enumeration and profiling phases of their attacks. Never underestimate a hacker and always overestimate the amount of damage they can do.
vul·ner·a·ble (v l n r- -b l) adj. 1. Susceptible to physical or emotional injury. 2. Susceptible to attack: "We are vulnerable both by water and land, without either fleet or army" (Alexander Hamilton). 3. Open to censure or criticism; assailable. 4. Liable to succumb, as to persuasion or temptation.
